THE PROPERTY

EPC Rating: C  **  Council Tax: D

Introduction & Exterior

Set back from a delightful Boley Park cul-de-sac this fabulous, detached home will prove popular to families seeking a property on a great plot with generous private garden and plenty of off-road parking. As viewers drive into Sunbury Avenue, the road continues to the left to a private driveway that includes a semi-detached pair of homes with this detached house nestled in the corner.

Beside the house is a large set of gates that open outward as the drive continues toward a garage. The garage is away from the house to the rear, being semi-detached with the garage next door. It has a manual up and over door to entre from the front, a pitched roof for extra storage and a personnel door to allow access from the garden.

The rear garden is a marvellous and private space. It begins with a deep slabbed patio that offers plenty of options for the new owners to place outdoor furniture. Beyond this is a sizeable lawn with wooden fencing erected to the boundaries. There is also a closed passage to the left side of the house that offers an area of outdoor storage.

Ground Floor

As viewers enter the home, they encounter a short hallway that is ideal for removing coats and shoes with a door to the right for the guest WC with wash basin. A further door opens to a generous lounge.

The lounge is the largest room in the house and features a bay window to the front and a gas fireplace to the left. There is attractive wood-effect flooring laid underfoot with a carpeted staircase to the right side of the room, leading up to the first floor. At the rear of the lounge is a wide opening to a dining room that features plenty of space for a six-seater dining table and French doors leading out to the rear patio.

The final room on the ground floor is a fitted kitchen that incorporates a range of wall and base mounted units that have clear spaces in between for a washing machine and dishwasher (both with plumbing), a cooker and a fridge freezer. A cupboard at the front of the kitchen makes great use of the space under the staircase and a door to the side exits to the gated part of the driveway.

First Floor

Owing to a window at the side, the bright landing has doors leading off to three bedrooms and the family bathroom, as well as another useful storage cupboard above the staircase. There is also a hatch above the landing to access a generous loft.

The bedrooms comprise of two double bedrooms and a single bedroom. The master bedroom is at the front and has a matching bay window to the one in the lounge. It also includes a range of fitted wardrobes at the rear of the room. The second bedroom includes a shower cubicle recessed to the rear of the room which is a wonderful conversion from what was a built-in wardrobe. The third bedroom is at the front of the house and works well as either a single bedroom, dressing room or as a home office.

The family bathroom includes an attractive, modern suite that includes a bath with shower and screen fitted over, a recessed pedestal wash basin, toilet, and a chrome heated towel rail. The suite is complemented by stylish tiling to the splashback areas.

TRANSPORT LINKS

Sunbury Avenue is located off Abbotsford Road in central Boley Park. Therefore there is excellent access to Lichfield City Centre as well as commuting away from the city by utilising the nearby A38 to Birmingham, Burton & Derby and the A51 south to Tamworth. By taking the Eastern Avenue bypass around the north of Lichfield provides good access to the A51 north to Rugeley & Stafford.

A walk down to Roman Way provides bus stops for services to Lichfield City Centre Bus Station and Tamworth. 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 City Train Station which is located on the Cross City Line which also includes Birmingham New Street, Sutton Coldfield and Redditch amongst others. Lichfield Trent Valley railway station is the other train station serving the city and is the more major of the two. The station has split level platforms as the station is part of both the West Coast Mainline (London Euston & Liverpool) and the aforementioned Cross City Line.

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.

Boley Park has a large Co-Operative Supermarket at its centre as well as a pharmacy, hair salon, Lichfield Health & Fitness and The Turnpike public house. All of these are accessible via a cut through from Abbotsford Road meaning they are easily within a couple of minutes’ walk. Lichfield is also home to no fewer than four other famous-named supermarkets.
