Introduction & Exterior
Located on the highly sought-after Cathedral View development in the Streethay area of Lichfield, this detached family home is likely to prove very popular amongst seeking a sizeable place that is ready to move into.
The house is set back from Thompson Way behind a short front lawn that has attractive shrubbery and a path laid between that leads to the main front door. To the left of the house is a tandem tarmac driveway that can comfortably fit two cars and potentially three. The driveway ends at the manual up-and-over door of the large single garage. The garage is an impressive size and features power, lighting and a pitched roof for storage.
In front of the garage is a secure gate to access the rear garden. The garden is a delightful area for the family to relax, children to play and guests to be entertained during the warmer months. It begins with a slabbed patio laid underneath the exit from the dining area French doors and this continues to form a path around the house and left side of the garden to the garage personnel door. The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn with shrubs and trees to the borders, with there being a secluded area behind the garage. Tall wooden fencing is erected to all boundaries.
Ground Floor
Upon entering the house, viewers will get an early taste of the excellent presentation in this home with clear white décor and light wood-effect flooring laid underfoot. The hallway is a great length for guests to remove coats and shoes as it angles around the lounge to the right to lead to the carpeted staircase. The lounge features more wood-effect flooring of a slightly darker colour, as well as a gorgeous deep bay window. With dining taken care of in the kitchen, the lounge is a vast room for the family to relax and comfortably fits a range of furniture.
The remaining doors from the hallway open to the study, kitchen and a guest WC with wash basin. The study is at the front of the house and has a window looking out over the frontage. This is the perfect space for those working from home. The study is also the only room on the ground floor that is carpeted.
The kitchen is the largest room in the house, having an impressive integrated suite to the left of the room and a vast open space to the right for dining. It spans the full width of the rear of the house and includes a set of French doors to the right that open out to the patio. The integrated suite includes a dishwasher, four-burner gas hob, chest-height double oven and a fridge freezer. The units are fitted in a horseshoe formation which involves a protruding section in the centre of the room to create a breakfast bar. A door at the front of the dining area opens to the handy under-stairs storage cupboard.
At the front of the kitchen is a door opening to a utility room that has a matching suite and includes spaces for a washing machine (with plumbing) and tumble dryer. The gas central heating combination boiler is mounted to the front wall and an exit door to the side allows easy passage to the driveway.
First Floor
At the top of the staircase is a fabulous gallery landing that buyers will love. It is lovely and bright here owing to a window at the side. It’s worth noting that all exterior windows and doors throughout the home are double-glazed. Doors from the landing lead to all four bedrooms, the family bathroom and a linen cupboard. There is access above the landing to a large and thickly insulated loft space.
The bedrooms comprises of three generous double bedrooms and a great single bedroom that is currently utilised as a second home office. The master bedroom is at the front of the house and is a magnificent sized room. It can comfortably hold a set of wardrobes and a king-sized with an abundance of space to space. To the left of the room is a door to the en suite shower room that features a double shower cubicle, wall mounted wash basin, toilet, and a radiator, with tiling applied to the splashback areas.
The family bathroom is another stylish suite that has a long bath with shower and glass screen fitted over. The bath has centralised taps fitted to the wall which is a really nice touch. The remaining suite features a wall mounted wash basin, toilet, radiator, and tiling to the splashback areas.

Communal service charge
Although Freehold, we are led to believe there will be a maintenance charge of around £235.00 per annum for upkeep of communal grounds once the development is completed. This is to be confirmed by solicitors.
Transport links
Thompson Way leads directly off the A5127 Burton Road in Streethay. 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
Buyers will be delighted that there is an area of businesses at the beginning of the development that include a Co-op convenience store, take away outlets, and a trendy two-storey coffee shop/bar called Bod.
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. Lichfield has five major supermarkets, all within short driving range.
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. The outstanding 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 (0.5 miles) & St. Chads Primary (0.9 miles). Although we have researched this information, parents are advised to confirm catchment via the local authority.
