This spacious 3 bedroom property offers an exceptional opportunity to live in an eco efficient home and join the vibrant community of Cannock Mill Cohousing. The development was completed 4 years ago with 23 units, all of which were designed and constructed to meet certified Passivhaus standards. A commitment to sustainability is evident throughout this property, which features high levels of insulation, triple glazing, a heat recovery ventilation system, bamboo flooring, a green roof and non toxic eco paints.

There are 3 double bedrooms, 2 well appointed bathrooms and, on the ground floor, a spacious garage, or a flexible studio area, with glazed bifold doors. On the top floor, flooded with natural light, a fitted kitchen and dining area meld seamlessly into a large open plan living room. The kitchen fittings include a dishwasher, induction hob, electric oven and a combination gas boiler. From the living room, bifold doors open onto a south facing balcony, with ample room to grow plants, socialise, or just sit and enjoy the garden views.
Ownership of this property comes with the privilege of being part of this friendly Cohousing community. All residents have a share in the communal amenities, not only the landscaped grounds and gardens, but also the listed Cannock Mill, which has been beautifully restored to serve as a Common house, with a fully equipped kitchen, dining room, guest rooms, laundry facilities, and a comfortable upper room for meetings and social activities
