Approach & Exterior



Located on a highly sought-after development in Amington, this fabulous home occupying a corner plot will delight families seeking a long term move. The property is set far back from St Andrews, having a long tarmac driveway with decorative block edging that provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The driveway leads to the garage where there is an electric roll-shut door to access. To the right of the driveway the front garden continues around the property to a well-maintained area of rockery. Trees and shrubs complete the attractive front exterior.

A passage to the left of the house leads to the rear of the house which has been lovingly cultivated for years to provide a landscaped garden with beautiful plants and shrubs that are full of colour. In amongst the garden is a private seating area with a delightful arch and to the side of the house is a wide space that currently holds a large shed / workshop. Buyers may see this space as potential to extend in the future.

Ground Floor



Viewers enter the home via a short but wide porch that is perfect for removing coats and shoes before moving through a second secure door into the hallway. The hallway has enough space for a sideboard and has the staircase ahead rising up to the first floor, and a door to the right opening to the lounge.

The lounge is a fabulous reception room that is lovely and bright owing to a marvellous, deep bay window to the front. It’s worth noting that all exterior doors and windows are double-glazed throughout this home. As dining is taken care of within the kitchen, the lounge is a superb size to be solely designated for the family to relax. A door to the rear of the lounge opens to the kitchen.

The kitchen is a vast open space the has stylish units fitted to the left, right and rear walls leaving room for a family dining table in the centre. The kitchen units have space for a cooker and dishwasher in between, with the latter being included as part of the sale. At the front of the room is a recess under the staircase which can perfectly house a fridge freezer. A double stainless steel sink with mixer tap is positioned in front of the window looking out to the garden. A set of French doors at the rear right open to a glorious conservatory that has a modified insulated roof with spotlighting. A further set of French doors open out to the garden.

To the left of the kitchen is an opening to the utility room where there is a matching suite to that of the kitchen with spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A stainless steel sink with drainer is present and there is another exit door out to the garden. At the front of the utility room are doors to the rear of the garage, and to a ground floor shower room complete with double shower, toilet, corer wash basin and a tall chrome heated towel rail.

Bedrooms three and four at the rear of the house could be considered as small doubles or large single bedrooms. Bedroom four is currently utilised as a great home office.

The final room in the house is the family bathroom.

Transport links

St Andrews branches off Eagle Drive and Mercian Way in Amington and from here there is swift access to the A5 (and subsequently the M42) via a bypass road network which passes through Glascote and Stoneydelph.

There are plenty of alternative rural routes with one being through the nearby village of Shuttington to get through to Ashby Road towards the M42 J11 for journeys north. In all, this makes the home well placed for journeys to Birmingham, Nottingham, and Coventry as well as closer destinations such as Tamworth centre, Lichfield, and Sutton Coldfield.

The nearest train station to this home is Tamworth Railway Station which has split level platforms offering services to all major UK destinations including Birmingham & London.

Bus users will be delighted that there is a regular service (every 15 minutes during weekday daytimes) to Tamworth Town Centre that passes along Eagle Drive. From the town centre there are many bus services offering access to other major towns and cities.



Schools & amenities

Viewers with children will be delighted to learn that both catchment schools are within walking range. Amington Heath Primary School and Nursery (a 0.3 mile walk) moves up to the Landau Forte Amington (formerly Woodhouse, 0.6 miles) which has excellent facilities. Although this information has been checked with the Staffordshire Schools Website, as with all properties, we advise that prospective buyers make their own enquiries with the local authority to confirm catchment. *** Amington Garden Village Primary Academy, a brand new school a five minute walk away, opens in September 2024 ***

A short walk from the house is the Coventry Canal, which is perfect for pleasant walks and exercise. By taking walking routes toward the oldest part of Amington village, the new owners will have access to a Tesco Express convenience store, pharmacy, fish & chip shop, and The Gate Inn public house.

A short drive toward the town of Tamworth, the centre is home to the Snowdome, Leisure Centre, Odeon Cinema and Ten Pin Bowling Alley amongst other facilities. There is also plenty of local history, with Tamworth Castle being the most famous point.

An interesting note is the naming of the local roads to have a golf theme. This is due to the development being built alongside Tamworth Municipal Golf Course, which closed in 2014.
