A well-located first-floor maisonette offering vacant possession and straightforward accommodation: entrance stairway, large living room, kitchen, double bedroom, bathroom and loft storage. The property sits within easy walking distance of Lichfield city centre, shops and the cathedral quarter — strong local amenities for everyday life.
Transport is a key strength: Lichfield Trent Valley offers direct services to London Euston in about 1 hour 16 minutes, and Lichfield City connects to Birmingham New Street in under 40 minutes. An allocated parking space to the rear and visitor bays to the front add practical appeal for owners or tenants.
There is clear scope to add value, making this an attractive choice for investors or someone planning to downsize and modernise. Service charge and ground rent are modest, council tax band is low and broadband speeds are fast, supporting rental demand or comfortable private use.
Important cautions: the sale is by auction with binding contracts on the day, a minimum 5% deposit and non-refundable buyer’s fee will apply. The lease term is short (around mid-60s years remaining) — many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend. The EPC is D and local crime levels are above average; prospective buyers should review the legal pack and lender criteria before bidding.
