Exterior & Approach

This fabulous modern semi-detached house on the highly sought-after Cathedral View development in the Streethay area of Lichfield will prove immensely popular to all viewers. Built in 2018, the property still has six years to run of its ten-year NHBC guarantee.

Arriving at the property, viewers will immediately note the tandem driveway running along the right-hand side of the house. At the far end of the driveway is a large and secure bicycle unit that has been specially installed into the driveway and therefore will be staying as part of the sale.

A gate at the end of the driveway leads into a beautiful south-facing rear garden with patio, lawn, and attractive raised borders. The patio is a huge improvement on the original that was laid by the builder and features large flagstone slabs creating two wonderful seating areas. The borders consist of large wooden plant boxes to the left and a lower soil patch to the right with tall wooden fencing to the side boundaries. The far boundary mainly comprises of a neighbouring garage wall making this garden very private.

Ground Floor

Viewers will enter the house via the composite secure front door and into a generous hallway for removing coats and shoes. From here there are doors leading off to guest WC with wash basin to the right, kitchen to the left and the lounge to the far end. A winding, carpeted staircase leads up to the first floor from the right, beyond the guest WC.

The kitchen has a stylish grey suite with units and work surfaces fitted to three of the four walls. Integrated appliances include a four-burner gas hob, chest height double oven, dishwasher, fridge freezer and washing machine. There are recently installed white ceiling spotlights to provide excellent light when needed. The one-and-a-half bowl sink with drainer is positioned in front of the double-glazed window that looks out to Teal Road. All windows and doors with glass are double-glazed, and there is a Hive heating system installed.

To the rear of the ground floor is a vast reception room for both lounging and dining. The high-quality Karndean flooring from the hallway continues to cover the entire reception room space and there is access to the handy under-stairs storage cupboard to the front right of the room. The room is lovely and bright, mainly due to a large set of French doors that lead out to the patio.

First Floor

Another bright area of the house is the landing, owed to the side window near to the top of the staircase. Doors from the landing lead off to all three bedrooms, the family bathroom and an airing cupboard housing a gas central heating combi-boiler. Above the loft is a hatch to access the insulated and boarded loft.  

The master bedroom is to the front of the first floor and features a shelved storage cupboard, fitted sliding-door wardrobe and access to a stylish en suite. The en suite has attractive tiling, a corner shower cubicle, wash basin, toilet, and a tall chrome heated towel rail. A similar towel rail is fitted in the smart bathroom suite that also has a bathtub with shower fitted over, wash basin and toilet.  

The second and third bedrooms are double and single rooms, respectively. Like the rest of the house, both rooms are tastefully decorated, and each has a window overlooking the rear garden.

TRANSPORT LINKS

Cathedral View is located in Streethay just off the A5127 Burton Road. The A5127 leads to Lichfield City Centre in the west and the A38 north in the east, which leads directly to Burton on Trent and Derby. Taking Cappers Lane from the main roundabout at nearby Trent Valley will provide access to the A38 south (for Birmingham & Sutton Coldfield) as well as rural routes and the A51 to Tamworth. Eastern Avenue is a bypass which navigates around half the circumference of Lichfield, and therefore provides good access to the A51 north to Rugeley & Stafford.

There is a regular bus service to Lichfield City Centre Bus Station located on the Burton Road, which leads to Burton on Trent in the opposite direction. The bus station provides links to all of the above destinations as well as places beyond Lichfield to the west including Walsall, Brownhills, Burntwood & Cannock.

Perfect for longer distance commuters, the property is located within walking distance of Lichfield Trent Valley railway station. There are split level platforms as the station is part of both the West Coast Mainline and Cross City Line. This means there is access to major UK destinations such as London, Birmingham, Liverpool & Manchester to name a few, as well as destinations in the midlands including Sutton Coldfield, Redditch, Atherstone, Nuneaton & Rugby.

SCHOOLS & AMENITIES

With Lichfield being one of the smallest cities in the UK, the majority of homes are within walking distance to the centre, where there are plenty of famous and independent stores. The city is steeped in history including the cathedral, churches and the Birthplace of Dr Samuel Johnson, credited for compiling the English dictionary amongst other literary achievements.

Just before reaching the town centre, there are two large supermarkets a short drive to the west of the property, with another supermarket located north on Eastern Avenue. At the tip of Hobs Road, which leads off Valley Lane, there is a row of shops including a convenience store.

According to the Staffordshire Schools website, the catchment secondary school for this home is Netherstowe High School which is within a mile of this home. Streethay Primary School is located a short walk away from the home although there are two further catchment primary schools listed on the Staffordshire Schools website, Scotch Orchard (0.4 miles) & St. Chads Primary (0.7 miles). Although we have researched this information, parents are advised to confirm catchment via the local authority.
