THE PROPERTY

This truly outstanding family home located in rural Staffordshire will impress all viewers. Driving down Long Lane, it’s easy to pass the property without noticing, as it is set back from the road, however once you have taken in and appreciated the size of this property, you will wonder how you almost passed it!! Walking up the driveway, past a raised fore garden with feature lamppost, viewers can’t fail to notice the lengthy tandem garage that precedes the house.

Once inside it is apparent how well finished this home is, as you step into a spacious welcoming hallway. Passing one of two ground floor toilets, the first door you will approach on your right is the office, which at over 17ft could also be used as a further bedroom. The next door opens through to what, in my opinion, is the best room in the house – a magnificent kitchen with separate dining area. All the required integrated appliances are here complete with a modern finish and a range cooker. The wall through to the lounge was pushed back to allow a reception dining area within the kitchen. With this alteration, the lounge is still a large room at over 22ft x 12ft and includes a wonderful feature fireplace and patio doors out to the rear garden.

There is still plenty more on the ground floor, as the door to the rear of the kitchen leads you, via a rear hallway with the second wc, to a good sized utility / laundry room with roof window. There is then access to a large room which was originally designed by the previous owner to be a double garage, however the permission to obtain a right of way to it wasn’t given. Therefore the current owners use this area as a gym and further storage, along with the room above it. The new owner may wish to obtain permission to convert this into an annexe amongst other possibilities. From this large room there is a vestibule leading to a rear workshop, thus completing the ground floor.

Making your way right back to the entrance hallway and up the stairs, viewers find themselves and a landing with four doors, three leading to fabulous double bedrooms and the other to a family bathroom including a stand-alone bathtub and separate shower cubicle. The master bedroom is certainly an attraction as it includes an abundance of wardrobe and drawer storage aswell and windows looking out to the front and, of course, the rear garden.

Last, but by no means least, is the mammoth rear garden. The garden begins at an excellent sized patio area before opening out to the huge lawn. Although the garden does indeed look large on the photos, it does extend back until it reaches the woodland to the rear of the property. Because of this, and many of the other reasons above, it is highly recommended that any interested party books a viewing to get a much better understanding of this magnificent family home.

TRANSPORT LINKS

Long Lane leads from the A34, which is a useful road for driving towards Cannock & Stafford to the North and Walsall & Birmingham to the South. Alternatively, travelling north will bring you to junctions with the A5, M6, M6 Toll and subsequently the M54, meaning that commuting and travelling for leisure could not be more convenient.

The nearest train station is situated in the nearby village of Landywood, located between Great Wyrley and Cheslyn Hay. The station offers services to Birmingham New Street, Walsall, Cannock, Bloxwich & Rugeley via the Chase Line.

Buses services are available from the A34 Stafford Road (at the end of long lane). These services provide access to Walsall, Cannock, Wolverhampton & Birmingham.

SCHOOLS & AMENITIES

Although there are local convenience stores and public houses in nearby villages, a drive north via the A34 to the outskirts of Cannock will bring you to the Orbital Retail Park with many familiar named shops including a Sainsburys supermarket. Being rural there are plenty of local walking opportunites but those wanting something a bit more special can drive 15-20 minutes north to reach Cannock Chase, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

According to the Staffordshire Schools website, the catchment schools for this home are Great Wyrley High School (1.6 miles) and Landywood Primary School (0.4 miles), although it is always recommended that prospective buyers do check with the local authority directly before confirming catchment.
