Tucked away along one of Solihull’s most desirable no-through roads, this substantial detached residence presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a home of considerable character, scale and potential. Having been cherished by the same owner for over 50 years, the property now offers a unique chance for a new custodian to refurbish, remodel or extend (subject to the necessary planning permissions) and create a truly exceptional family home in a prime Solihull location.
Set within an impressive plot of approximately 0.55 acres, the property is approached via an attractive in-and-out driveway, providing generous parking and a sense of arrival befitting such a distinguished address. The home sits comfortably within its mature surroundings, with established planting and a beautifully maintained west-facing rear garden that enjoys excellent privacy and abundant afternoon and evening sunshine.
The internal accommodation extends to approximately 2,400 sq ft (2,709 total) and offers well-balanced living space across two floors. On the ground floor there are three generous reception rooms, including a large living room, dining room and separate sitting room, providing excellent versatility for family living and entertaining. A spacious kitchen with adjoining utility area offers further scope for redesign to create an impressive open-plan family space if desired.
On the first floor are five bedrooms, served by three bathrooms, offering comfortable accommodation for family living. Three of the bedrooms enjoy pleasant views across the surrounding gardens, while the overall layout lends itself well to reconfiguration to suit modern lifestyles.
In addition, the property benefits from a garage and separate store, with further potential for conversion or redevelopment, again subject to the appropriate consents. The total property stands at 2,709 square feet.
Externally, the gardens are a particular highlight. The west-facing rear garden is beautifully established with mature trees, lawns and planting beds, creating a peaceful and private setting rarely found so close to the centre of Solihull.
