This substantial 1950s detached house offers family-sized living across nearly 3,300 sq ft on a large, landscaped quarter-acre plot. Recently renovated, it combines period details — parquet flooring and bay windows — with a high-quality open-plan kitchen, multiple reception rooms and flexible upstairs space for bedrooms, home office or playroom. The rear garden is private and professionally planted, with multiple entertaining terraces, vegetable beds and mature specimen trees.
The layout suits a growing or multi-generational family: principal and second bedroom suites, three further first-floor bedrooms, and two additional rooms on the top floor (one currently unfinished). There is a separate yoga studio/playroom with its own staircase, an integral garage with electric sectional door and a broad driveway with hidden campervan space. Local schools are strong and the city centre is within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the property sits in a higher-crime area relative to the wider postcode, council tax is described as quite expensive, and the double glazing predates 2002 so full thermal performance may be below modern standards. One attic-level room is currently unfinished and will need completing to be fully habitable.
Overall this is a rare, roomy family home with strong indoor/outdoor flow and scope to personalise the remaining attic space. It will particularly suit buyers seeking a large, architecturally characterful house close to Lichfield centre who are comfortable addressing the factual practicalities listed above.
