3 bed detached house for sale

James Close, Burntwood WS7

Ref: JC0739 - From the moment you step inside, this one just flows. It’s modern, well thought out and clearly designed for real life not just looking good in photos (although it does that too).

The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen/diner at the rear. It’s a proper family space with room for cooking, eating, chatting and keeping an eye on the garden through the double doors. Whether it’s weekday dinners, weekend breakfasts or friends round with a glass of something, this is where life happens.

Just off the kitchen you’ve got a utility room (a genuine luxury once you’ve had one), keeping the washing and mess nicely out of sight, plus a downstairs WC that saves everyone running upstairs. There’s also a separate laundry room which could just as easily double up as storage, hobby space or future office vibes.

The lounge sits at the front of the house and feels calm and comfortable a switch-off room for evenings on the sofa, with plenty of space for big furniture without feeling cramped.

Upstairs, the layout really comes into its own.

The main bedroom is a brilliant size and comes with its own dressing area leading through to a private en-suite. No awkward wardrobes stealing floor space, no morning queues for the bathroom. Just a really sensible, grown-up setup.

There are two further bedrooms, both well-proportioned and versatile ideal for kids, guests, home working or a mix of all three. The family bathroom is clean, modern and finished in neutral tones, ready to go with no work needed.

Outside, the rear garden is private, low-maintenance and a great size. There’s a smart patio area perfect for outdoor dining, plus a generous lawn that’s ideal for kids, pets or simply enjoying the sunshine without spending every weekend mowing.

Out at the front, the house is tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, so there’s no passing traffic and none of that constant comings and goings you get on busier roads. The outlook is pleasantly open and private, with no homes directly overlooking, giving it a really calm, settled feel. It’s the sort of spot where you can open the curtains in the morning without feeling on display, and pull up outside knowing it’s peaceful, safe and very much off the beaten track.

The overall square footage, and the fact that everything feels well cared for and move-in ready, and you’ve got a home that really works for modern family life.

In short:

A smart, well-balanced home with great space where it matters, a layout that makes sense, and nothing shouting “project” when you walk through the door.

This is one you’ll want to see in person, it just feels right.

Location

Living on the Burntwood Manor estate really feels like being part of a settled, family-friendly community where you genuinely belong. It’s a place that strikes a lovely balance between peaceful suburban life and everyday convenience. Quiet cul-de-sacs, green views over nearby fields and that sense of space that’s rare to find so close to local amenities.

For families, schooling is a real highlight. There are well-regarded primary and secondary schools within easy walking or short-drive distance, including standout options like St Joseph & St Theresa Catholic Primary and Erasmus Darwin Academy perfect for those morning school runs without any stress.

Day-to-day life is incredibly straightforward. Local shops, cafes and essential services sit just minutes from the estate, while larger supermarkets like Morrisons, Aldi and Lidl are only a short drive away, ideal for weekly food shops or grabbing bits on the go.

When it comes to getting around, Burntwood punches above its weight. Bus services connect you easily to nearby Cannock and Lichfield for work, leisure or rail links, and although Burntwood itself doesn’t have its own train station, stations at Lichfield, Hednesford and Cannock are within comfortable reach for commuters heading further afield.

Outside the practical stuff, the lifestyle here leans into the best bits of Staffordshire living. There’s great access to open countryside on the doorstep, local walking routes and family-friendly pubs and social spots that make weekends feel like a breath of fresh air. All of it means Burntwood Manor isn’t just a place to live it’s somewhere you can feel at home, part of a community with room to grow and enjoy every day.
