THE PROPERTY Tenure: FREEHOLD EPC Rating: D ** Council Tax Band: B Introduction & Exterior This superbly presented family home in Burntwood will prove extremely popular to, in particular, First Time Buyers as it is ready to move into. The property is positioned at the top of Foxhill Close and is set back behind a slate and block-paved driveway for two cars to be parked side-by-side. There is also an additional allocated parking space to the left side of the row of the terrace. The property comes with a fabulous rear garden that is landscaped with a flagstone patio covering most of the ground space as well as areas of synthetic lawn, slate and bark with shrubbery. As the house is mid-terraced, access out of the rear garden is found via a gate at the far end with a communal passage available to move back round to Foxhill Close. This is ideal for removing garden waste. Ground Floor Viewers enter the home into a wide porch that has plenty of room for guests to remove coats and shoes. A handy storage cupboard to the left houses the meters and a window to the right allows plenty of natural light. This is a theme throughout the house, and we must note that all external windows and doors are double glazed. A further secure door opens through to the lounge. The lounge is beautifully decorated which sets the tone for the reast of the viewing. A large window to the front ensures the lounge is lovely and bright, and to the right of the room is an electric log burner-style fireplace with surround. With dining taken care of in the next room, the lounge is a superb sized room to be designated solely for the family to relax. A door to the left of the lounge opens to the inner hallway with staircase leading up to the first floor. A door to the rear opens to the dining room. Originally two separate rooms, the dining room and kitchen have been opened through to create a lovely open plan area that is great for the family, and for guests to be entertained. The kitchen suite has laminated wood units with roll top surfaces. Integrated within the suite is an electric oven, four-burner gas hob, overhead extractor fan, and a one-and-a-half-bowl sink with drainer. Clear spaces are available for a washing machine and fridge freezer. At the rear of the dining room is a set of sliding doors that open through to a conservatory that is ideal for relaxing, as an alternative dining room or as a playroom. As with the dining room, the conservatory has wood-effect laminate flooring, and there is a set of French doors that open to the rear garden. First Floor Viewers arrive at the landing which has a corridor leading alongside the balustrade and has doors leading off to all three bedrooms (two doubles, one single) and the family bathroom. Above the landing is a hatch to access the loft. Both double bedrooms are positioned to the right of the house with the largest being at the front of the property. This is a remarkable sized bedroom and can easily hold a king-sized bed as well as wardrobe and dressing furniture. Bedroom three is a decent single that could also work well as a home office. Near to the entrance of the room is a cupboard housing the central heating combination boiler. The family bathroom is a stylish suite that comprises of an L-shaped bathtub with shower and screen fitted over, a white hi-gloss combi-unit with cabinet, wash basin and toilet, and a chrome heated towel rail. The suite is perfectly complemented by attractive tiling to the splashback areas. NB - ROOM SIZES ARE SHOWN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE. TRANSPORT LINKS Foxhill Close is around a 5-minute drive from the A5 and M6 Toll Road. It’s also a short drive from the A5190 Cannock Road, which is the ‘spine’ road that leads straight through Burntwood between Cannock and Lichfield. Bus Stops are found on nearby Chase Road which provide a service between Cannock & Lichfield with a further service available to Walsall and an early morning service to Birmingham. For trains, a 20–25-minute drive to Lichfield Trent Valley train station offers fabulous commuting links due to its split-level platform for the West Coast Mainline and the Cross City Line. This means there are regular services to Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield and Redditch as well as national routes to London, Liverpool, Manchester and even the occasional Glasgow service.
