The property
Tenure: Freehold
EPC Rating: C ** Council Tax Band: D ** Rear Garden Orientation: North
Introduction & Exterior
This well-presented, executive detached family home, holding an end plot next to local woodland, will prove very popular to those seeking space both inside and out. First impressions are excellent as the property is set back from Meadowbank Grange behind an almost-full-width block-paved driveway with a row of attractive shrubs to the left-hand side. This allows for off-road parking for at least three cars, plus the space available in the single garage featuring a fob-controlled electric roll-shutter door.
A secure gate to the right of the property leads to the rear garden via a side passage. The garden was revamped as the current owners ‘Covid project’ and is a remarkable area for relaxing, entertaining and child’s play. It begins with a high-quality slabbed patio with blocked edging. The garden continues to a wide patch of synthetic turf before finishing at a cleverly designed seating area constructed from sleepers with further slabbing and gravel stones. The sleepers continue to the borders with more attractive shrubs and tall wooden fencing to the boundaries.
Ground Floor
As viewers enter via the stylish composite front door, they are brought into a generous hallway that is perfect for guests to remove coats and shoes. The hallway has wood-effect laminate flooring with the carpeted staircase that leads upstairs to the first floor. Doors from hallway lead to the lounge and kitchen. With there being an opening to the rear for dining room, the carpeted lounge is solely designated for relaxing with the family and is an excellent size for this. There is a lovely bay window to the front that allows plenty of natural light.
The dining room is an ample size to hold a six-to-eight-seater dining table and has wood-effect laminate floor laid underfoot. A fabulous set of French doors with side windows open through to a large conservatory at the rear. The conservatory offers an alternative spot for dining, lounging or for a playroom. A subsequent set of French doors leads out to the garden patio.
To the side of the dining room there is door through to a wide kitchen that includes a range of wall and base mounted units. Within the units is a range of integrated appliances such as a low-level refrigerator, freezer and electric oven and a four-ring gas hob, as well as a one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer. An opening to the right-hand side of the kitchen leads into the utility room which has a matching row of units with two spaces for the washing and tumble dryer, as well as another sink with drainer and the concealed gas system boiler. To the front of the utility is a door into the guest WC with wash basin and at the rear there is another composite external door that leads out to the garden patio.
First Floor
The first-floor landing features doors leading off to all four bedrooms, the family bathroom, and the airing cupboard, holding the hot water tank. Above the landing is a hatch to access the large, insulated loft space.
The bedrooms comprise of three wonderful double bedrooms and one generous single room. The largest of the these is at the front left of the house and includes a row of built-in wardrobes and access to an en suite shower room. The en suite features a deep shower cubicle and an L-shaped unit that includes the wash basin, toilet, and clever storage solutions.
The remaining double bedrooms are located at the rear-left and front-right of the first floor. For second and third bedrooms these really are remarkable sizes. The final bedroom is at the centre rear of the house and can easily hold a single bed, desk, and wardrobe. Finally, the family bathroom at the rear-right is a long room that includes a wooden-panelled bathtub with shower and screen fitted over, a toilet and a wash basin.

Transport links
Meadowbank Grange in Great Wyrley is a short journey south of the A34 near to its main junction with the A5 and A460 in Cannock. A short journey west on the A460 leads to further major junctions with the M6, M6 Toll and subsequently the M54, meaning that commuting and travelling for leisure could not be more convenient. The A34 also leads to Walsall via Bloxwich.
The nearest train station, Landywood, is a short drive away and serves Great Wyrley and Cheslyn Hay. To save on parking it is around a twenty-five-minute walk. The station offers services to Birmingham New Street, Walsall, Cannock, Bloxwich & Rugeley via the Chase Line.
Bus users will be delighted that a regular service operates from Station Street to Cannock and Wolverhampton centres. Further bus services are available from the nearby A34, Walsall Road to Walsall & Birmingham.
Schools & amenities
Great Wyrley is very well supported by local businesses and convenience stores. These include a veterinary practice, hair salon and takeaway outlets. There are a few welcoming public houses dotted around the village as well as an Esso petrol station at Churchbridge.
To the north is the Orbital Retail Park with many familiar named shops including a Sainsburys supermarket. Just beyond this is the recently opened McArthurGlen Designer Outlet which has proven very successful since its recent opening. Being not far from countryside to the south, there are plenty of local walking opportunities but those wanting something a bit more special can drive 15-20 minutes north to reach Cannock Chase, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
According to the Staffordshire Schools website, the catchment schools for this home are within a half mile’s walk. They are Great Wyrley Academy (0.3 miles) and Moat Hall Primary School (0.4 miles). Although we have researched this information, it is always recommended that prospective buyers do check with the local authority before confirming catchment.
