4 bed detached house for sale

Rugeley Road, Chase Terrace, Burntwood, Staffordshire WS7

Visionary Homes are delighted to present 45 Rugeley Road to the market.

Owned by the Pugh family for almost 100 years, this charming and characterful property is ready for a new chapter and offers an exceptional opportunity for its next owner.

Formerly a family-run shop, with the business originally operating from the front room of the home, the property has evolved over the decades while remaining in the same family since 1929. Once known as “Holmleigh” before becoming number 45, this building is steeped in local history and community heritage.

The property comprises a shop front to the front elevation and a spacious three/four-bedroom home to the rear, offering a wealth of possibilities. Whether you are looking to:

Run your own business from the shop frontage

Convert the entire building into a substantial family home

Explore development potential such as apartments (subject to planning permission)

- this truly is a rare and versatile opportunity.

To the rear, there is a generous garden along with several outbuildings, reflecting the family's industrious past when multiple trades were carried out from the premises. There is also rear access via a shutter, which could lend itself to private parking.

While the property would benefit from modernisation and some tender loving care, it has been lovingly maintained over the years and offers incredible potential to create something very special.

In addition to the house being impressive, the location is equally impressive.

Sankey's Corner serves as a hub for local businesses, community events, and essential services, including popular spots such as Cortina's Italian restaurant, Mickey Tea's coffee shop, traditional fish and chip shops, Chinese takeaway, a family-run post office, and many other independent businesses.

Multiple supermarkets, family-run butchers, public transport links on a main bus route, and ample parking options - including the council's public car park and Sankey's Corner car park - are all within easy reach.

The possibilities with this property truly know no bounds.
