Description
REF: JC0739 - If you’ve been waiting for a detached home in Burntwood that doesn’t require you to sell a kidney, here it is. Tucked right down a quiet little cul-de-sac, this place is one of those properties where the potential hits you before you’ve even stepped through the door. And honestly, at this price point, you’d be hard-pressed to find a semi in the area, never mind a detached.
Inside, it’s fair to say the house is ready for someone to come in and give it a fresh lease of life. The layout is spot on. A big, bright lounge with that lovely bow window, a decent-sized kitchen, two proper double bedrooms and a brand-new shower room that’s already been done for you.
So really, all you’re looking at is updating the kitchen and then cracking on with carpets, paint and your own style throughout.
It’s a proper blank canvas, the fun kind, not the stressful kind.
The garden’s a good size, private enough, and perfect for anyone who wants something manageable without spending every weekend mowing. There’s also a garage, which is ideal as it is, but if you’re thinking home office, gym, studio, extra reception room, it’s a very easy conversion.
Location-wise, it’s a brilliant little spot. You’re just a short stroll from Swan Island, so shops, takeaways, the bus routes, all your daily bits… they’re right there. And being off the main roads means you get the peace and quiet, too. Not always easy to find in this price bracket.
To top it all off, the property comes with no chain, so if you’re itching to get moving quickly, this one will absolutely work in your favour.

Gorstey Lea is one of those little Burntwood pockets where life just… works. It’s quiet enough that you can actually hear yourself think, but you’re still only a couple of minutes from everything you need. It’s the kind of street where people nod hello, bins magically make it back onto the drives, and you can nip out for milk without having to plan a full expedition.
You’re right by Swan Island, which means shops, takeaways, the Co-op, the bus routes and the everyday bits are all practically on your doorstep. If you fancy a proper walk, Chasewater is only a short drive, and if you want something a bit more “pop in, stretch the legs, get some fresh air”, then the local parks and green spaces dotted around Burntwood do the job perfectly.
School-wise, you’re well covered. Boney Hay Primary, Chase Terrace Academy, and Holly Grove Primary are all within easy reach, and you’ve got a mix of primary and secondary options depending on which direction you head. It’s the kind of area where school runs are measured in minutes, not miles.
Transport links are dead simple, too. You can be on the A5, A38 or the M6 Toll before you’ve finished your podcast intro, and Lichfield’s stations give you direct lines into Birmingham if you’re commuting. Local buses run straight through Swan Island, so even if you’re not driving, getting around is easy.
