3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Claygate Road, Wimblebury WS12

The property

This beautifully presented Wimblebury home is ideal for any buyer (especially first time buyers) to move in without needing any extra funds to change a thing. The property begins with a block paved driveway for two cars and a raised low-maintenance garden with retaining brick wall. This provides a lovely front aspect that viewers will love upon arrival. They will then take the front door into a porch for removing coats and shoes, before moving through to the main entrance hallway.

Even at the point of the hallway, viewers will appreciate just how well finished this house is and will immediately notice the delightful real wood flooring laid in here. From the hallway there is the option of taking the door to the right for the lounge, a door straight ahead for the kitchen or the staircase up to the first floor. There is also a handy storage cupboard under the stairs.

The lounge is a magnificent space laid with plush carpet that continues through to the dining room. Both these rooms have been opened through to make one large double reception room that is very impressive. The lovely décor is complimented by a stylish gas fireplace, wide bowed window to the front and sliding patio doors from the dining room into the conservatory. It is worth noting at this point that all windows are double glazed and that the house has gas central heating. The dining room is easily big enough for a large family dining table, especially with it being opened from the lounge.

As mentioned in the last paragraph, there is a conservatory and a very nice one at that. The perfect place for relaxing, the conservatory has a wood effect laminate flooring and patio doors out to the rear garden. Back into the dining room, there is a door to the left that provides access to a magnificent breakfast kitchen that is expanded from the original build to take up the space behind the garage. This means there is plenty of space to manoeuvre around aswell as an abundance of work surface space and storage units, with spaces for all major kitchen appliances as shown in the photos. There is also a protruding breakfast bar, perfect for that morning cup of coffee and slice of toast! From the kitchen there is a door leading to outside and another to a generous single garage, large enough to be able to store a car.

Moving up stairs, viewers will note more plush carpet and a side window on the landing to provide plenty of natural light. From here there are doors leading off to all three bedrooms, the family bathroom and a double width airing cupboard that stores the central heating boiler. All three bedrooms are of a generous size, with two double bedrooms and a surprisingly good single bedroom, all of which continue with the lovely carpet. The master bedroom at the front includes two sets of fitted wardrobes and a lovely wide window to the front. Next to the master bedroom is the third bedroom that includes a window to the side and a recess above the stairs for storage.

At the rear of the house is the second bedroom which, like the master, has a lovely large window but with wonderful views looking toward the Hednesford Hills. The final room in the house is a sensational bathroom suite, and I don’t write that lightly. There is a gorgeous free standing bathtub, separate shower cubicle, toilet and a wash basin set into a cabinet. Viewers will be very impressed. Above the first floor is a large loft space that is fully insulated.

Finishing outside, the rear garden is a private space that is fully enclosed by a wooden fence. There is a large summer house constructed from wood that matches the fencing to further enhance how pleasing on the eye the garden is. The garden itself is relatively low maintenance as it is mainly covered by paving slabs landscaped on two levels with gravel and shrubs to the borders.

Transport links

Claygate Road lies just off John Street, the road that bridges the gap between the Wimblebury Roads of Heath Hayes and Littleworth. The property is around a 5-10 minute drive from Cannock centre, whereas those looking to commute away have great links to the A5 and subsequently the M6 and M6 Toll. This allows for good commuting to Birmingham, Stafford and Lichfield to name a few destinations.

For trains, a 5 minute drive to the Cannock train station provides commuters with a direct route to Birmingham New Street on the Chase Line. Other stations on this line are Rugeley, Walsall and Bloxwich. A 25 minute drive to Lichfield Trent Valley is the closest station for trains to London Euston via the West Coast Main Line.

The area is well served by bus services as there are local stops for routes to Cannock town centre, Burntwood and Lichfield. Each of these destinations has further services meaning that there are good public transport links to much of the West Midlands and Staffordshire.

Schools & amenities

Parents will be delighted to learn that the nearest primary and secondary schools are well within a mile walk of this home. Kingsmead Academy on Kings Road is 0.7 miles away whereas Heath Hayes Primary is very close, as it is a short walk south along Wimblebury Road. As with all properties, we advise that parents make their own enquires with the local authority before confirming catchment.

The nearest shop to the house is found on John Street where there is a convenience store and takeaway outlet. A short distance in the car, not far from the Five Ways Island at the bottom of Wimblebury Road, is Hednesford Road which is the main business area of Heath Hayes. Here the new owners can take advantage of shops and services such as a Convenience Store, Takeaway outlets and a Library. For a more involved shop, The Orbital Retail Park in Cannock is a 5-10 minute drive away and includes large famous brand stores, supermarkets and restaurants.
