Along with the quarry tiled flooring, immediately of note is the range oven set within another brick chimney breast and a magnificent Belfast sink. 

The remainder of suite includes a refrigerator, dishwasher, plenty of unit storage and work surface space. Access to a pantry is at the right side of the room which is formed from the under stairs storage.

The Belfast sink required the kitchen suite to be bespoke fitted around the window to fit it in, providing a wonderful centrepiece. Photo: Yopa

It features a lovely clawfoot bathtub with shower fitted over, a pedestal wash basin and a toilet. Wooden panelling with shelving provides a lovely accompanying touch and there is a large linen cupboard near to the entrance to the bathroom.

Weeford is near to both the A5 and A38 making this a sensational spot for commuters.

The village was originally link to both before the rerouting of the A5 and remodelling of the A38 segregated the village so that there is no longer any passing traffic, adding to the many buying features.

The best train station for the new owners to use would be Lichfield Trent Valley railway station which is around a 10-minute drive. 

Weeford is positioned between Lichfield and Tamworth will plenty of supermarkets and shops at both, including Ventura Retail Park in Tamworth.
