St John's Grange is a substantial new build development by Persimmon Homes, located at Axten Avenue, London Road, Lichfield, Staffordshire, WS14 9GD. The development offers a diverse range of 1, 2, 3, and 4-bedroom properties, including apartments, semi-detached houses, detached family homes, and two-bedroom bungalows, targeting a broad spectrum of buyers from first-time homeowners to downsizers and families. Potential purchasers should contact the sales office to clarify which properties fall under each brand and specification.

The development features a variety of layouts designed for modern living. Named house styles include The Rochester, a two-bedroom home with a spacious living/dining room, and The Gloucester, a two-bedroom bungalow offering single-floor accommodation. Family house types, such as The Greyfriars, provide three bedrooms and often feature a ground floor with an open-plan kitchen/breakfast area, separate dining/family room, and a first-floor living room. Many homes incorporate practical elements like open-plan kitchen/diners with French doors providing access to the rear garden, alongside a 10-year warranty as standard. St John's Grange is situated just over a mile from the historic centre of Lichfield, which is accessible via a short 4-minute drive or within walking distance. The city centre provides a mix of high-street stores, independent shops, cafes, and restaurants, focused around the famous cathedral. Commuter links are a major benefit. The development provides convenient access to the regional road network, including the A5 and A38, with the M6 Toll less than a 5-minute drive away, providing a clear route around the greater Birmingham area. Average driving times from the location are approximately 30 minutes to Birmingham City Centre (20 miles), 15 minutes to Tamworth (8 miles), and 13 minutes to Sutton Coldfield (9 miles). Rail access is provided by Lichfield City Station (approximately 1 mile) and Lichfield Trent Valley Station (approximately 0.9 miles), with the latter offering mainline rail connections. Bus routes such as X3, X65, X66, 3, and 765 serve the local vicinity. The area is well-catered for families with several established educational facilities nearby. Primary education is offered at Five Spires Academy, located within one mile of the development, alongside King Edward VI secondary school and South Staffordshire College for further education. Additionally, a new primary school is planned to serve the wider community. Leisure facilities include Lichfield Rugby Club, Tennis Club, Cricket Club, and access to the Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which is approximately a half-hour drive away. Persimmon Homes offers several incentive schemes, including Deposit Boost (5% contribution), Part Exchange, and the New Build Boost, available on selected plots (terms and conditions apply).
