St. James Court, Burton-on-Trent

Grants Yard is a well-regarded development tucked away in the centre of Burton-on-Trent, offering the perfect blend of town centre convenience and residential tranquillity. Just a short stroll from the train station, it’s ideal for commuters with direct rail links to Derby, Birmingham and beyond. A wide range of amenities including supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs are all within easy walking distance.

The building is accessed via secure fob/passcode entry into an internal courtyard, creating an immediate sense of privacy and security. The apartment itself benefits from large, screened windows to the front and its own private entrance.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a substantial kitchen diner fitted with a range of wall and base units, oven, induction hob with extractor over, space for a washing machine and fridge freezer. The room is exceptionally generous, with ample space remaining for additional cabinetry, a kitchen island, and a formal family dining table if desired. This space also showcases the beautiful staircase rising to the first floor, enhancing the open and airy feel of the apartment.
Leading on from the kitchen diner is a convenient downstairs WC with hand wash basin. Beyond this sits the impressive living room, a wonderfully sized space capable of accommodating large sofas and entertainment furniture with ease. French doors open directly onto the rear decked garden – a rare feature for a duplex apartment and the only one within St. James’ Court to offer this. The garden is privately screened by mature trees and bamboo, providing a peaceful, low-maintenance outdoor area perfect for seating and entertaining, complete with a beautiful tree that blooms in spring.

To the first floor, a long landing leads to two exceptionally well-proportioned bedrooms. One benefits from fitted sliding wardrobes and distinctive slash-style windows that allow an abundance of natural light. The main bedroom is equally impressive in size and also features matching slash-style windows along with fitted wardrobes, creating a cohesive design and excellent built-in storage. Positioned away from the main road, the apartment enjoys reduced road noise and a pleasant corner outlook over Grants Yard. Serving both bedrooms is a family bathroom comprising a shower over bath, WC and hand wash basin.

To finish, the property also benefits from an allocated parking space within the residents’ car park, adding further practicality to this already impressive home.

An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, layout and rare outdoor offering this superb duplex apartment provides.
