Highfield Road, Burntwood

REF: JC0739 - If you’ve been waiting for a family home in Burntwood that actually feels like a family home, one with space, a sense of flow, and room for everyone to spread out, then this one on Highfield Road is going to get your attention.

From the front you’d never guess how much room is hiding inside. The house has been opened up in all the right places, giving you that big, bright lounge at the back with French doors straight onto the garden. It’s the kind of lounge where Christmas actually fits, movie nights feel like movie nights, and no one’s arguing over who gets the good spot.

The kitchen sits just off the hallway and works perfectly as a practical hub of the home. Plenty of storage, space to cook, and it’s close enough to the lounge so you’re still part of the action. And because of that long side porch, you’ve got this brilliant everyday entrance for the school bags, muddy trainers, wet coats, all the stuff you don’t want dumped in the main hallway. Honestly, every family home should have one.

Upstairs you’ve got three bedrooms. Bedroom two is a very comfortable double, bedroom one runs across the whole back of the house, and bedroom three is currently a walk-in wardrobe but would happily work as a nursery or office if needed. The bathroom is a good size too, with a big shower cabin and plenty of space to actually get ready in the morning without someone banging the door down.

And then there’s the loft room. Properly converted, nicely finished, and currently a kids’ dream den. Velux windows, storage, and just a lovely extra bit of space that makes the house feel bigger than most in this price range. Whether it ends up as a playroom, a teenager’s hideaway or a home office you’ll never come back down from, it’s a brilliant bonus.

Outside, the garden is designed for easy living. South-facing, split-level, private, and big enough for barbecues, trampolines, and kids charging around without you worrying about mowing every other day. It’s one of those gardens that actually gets used, instead of one that looks great in a photo but becomes a chore in real life.

All in all, it’s a proper family house. Big living space, great garden, four bedrooms including the loft room, a practical layout, and all the work already done. You can just move in, spread out, and get on with living.


Location

Highfield Road is one of those Burntwood streets that just makes day-to-day life easy as you’re close enough to everything you actually need.

One of the biggest perks of living here is how close the schools are. Highfields Academy is literally around the corner (about 0.2 miles) you could probably walk it quicker than you can find the car keys. Fulfen Primary is only 0.4 miles away, and Springhill Primary Academy and Chase Terrace Academy are both around 0.5 miles. School runs don’t become a daily expedition, and older kids can easily walk with friends.

You’ve got all your everyday essentials within a short stroll too.  The Co-op, the local shops, takeaways, the barbers, the pharmacy, and Sankeys Corner just down the road when you need bits and bobs in a hurry. If you like the idea of being able to grab a loaf of bread, a Costa, or a Friday-night curry without having to get in the car, this area genuinely delivers.

Commuting is simple as well. Getting into Lichfield, Cannock or Walsall is straightforward, and if work takes you further afield, you’re not far from Lichfield City or Trent Valley for trains into Birmingham or London. And on weekends, Cannock Chase is close enough that you can just head out on a whim for a walk, a bike ride or to let the dog blow off some steam.

The road itself has that relaxed, friendly Burntwood feel. Neighbours who say hello, kids playing out, and a general sense that people look out for one another without being in your pockets. It’s comfortable, familiar, and very easy to settle into.

In short: Highfield Road gives you convenience, great nearby schools, easy transport links and a proper community vibe. The kind of place that quietly makes life run smoother without you even noticing.
