Summary - 26 SHORTBUTTS LANE LICHFIELD WS14 9BT
Nearly 4,000 sq ft of flexible family accommodation
Set on a private 0.22-acre plot in an established Lichfield address, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers nearly 4,000 sq ft of flexible family accommodation and a 726 sq ft cedar-clad annexe. The home’s standout social space is a vast open-plan kitchen, dining and family room with a large island and sliding glazed doors opening onto professionally landscaped entertaining gardens including a pergola with outdoor bar.
Upstairs the principal suite impresses with a vaulted ceiling, Juliet balcony and dressing lobby; a second bedroom also benefits from an en suite and three further bedrooms share a family bathroom. Practical rooms include a utility, guest cloakroom, study and two further reception rooms, plus a storage garage and block-paved driveway with space for several cars.
Extras that add value: the self-contained annexe (ideal for home office, guest suite or rental income), gated rear access to Shortbutts Park, and a handy 0.5-mile walk to Lichfield City station. Fast broadband and mains gas boiler heating meet modern household needs.
Notable considerations: the house dates from the 1930–1949 period so some original fabric and services may require updating; external walls are cavity-built with assumed no insulation; double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. The local area reports above-average crime levels, which some buyers will want to review. Overall, this is a large, well-presented family home with strong entertaining and annexe potential, best suited to buyers wanting space, flexibility and proximity to city and green space.
