Approached by a long sweeping driveway within mature grounds over 0.8 acres, this substantial eight bedroom family home offers exceptional family space with an impressive sense of arrival.

Offered with no upward chain.
DetailsSet well back from Warwick Road behind an expansive lawned frontage, this impressive detached residence enjoys a mature setting that complements its substantial proportions. The long driveway winds through established grounds before opening onto a generous forecourt, revealing an attractive façade of brickwork, timber detailing and prominent gables.
The accommodation extends to over 5,500 sq ft and offers considerable flexibility for larger families, visiting guests and those working from home. Four reception rooms and a conservatory provide a choice of formal and informal living spaces, whilst eight bedrooms are served by four en-suites and two further bathrooms.
Beautifully maintained and comfortable to enjoy in its present form, the property also presents an exciting opportunity to update the interiors to individual taste. The generous plot offers potential for further extension, subject to the necessary planning and building regulation approvals. With no upward chain, this is a compelling opportunity to create a long-term family home in a well-established Solihull setting.
An enclosed entrance porch opens into a generous reception hall, where a sweeping staircase, decorative cornicing and traditional detailing establish an immediate sense of scale. A separate cloakroom and guest WC provide practical additions to this welcoming central space.
The principal lounge is an impressive room of elegant proportions, with bay windows, intricate ceiling details and a substantial inglenook feature fireplace framed by a decorative arch. Offering ample space for several seating arrangements, it is equally suited to entertaining and relaxed family gatherings. Double doors connect to the formal dining room, whilst the adjoining conservatory creates a bright space from which to enjoy the garden throughout the seasons.
The dining room provides a refined setting for larger occasions, with a bay window and decorative cornicing continuing the traditional style. A separate snug, with French doors opening outside, offers a quieter retreat or a versatile additional family room.
The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of traditional timber cabinetry, generous work surfaces, a gas hob and built-in ovens. A large window draws in natural light, whilst tiled flooring, ceiling beams and space for a breakfast table give the room a welcoming country-house feel.
Leading from the kitchen, the sitting room offers a particularly inviting space, centred on a substantial exposed brick fireplace with log burner and timber mantel. Ceiling beams and tiled flooring add warmth and texture, with French doors connecting the room to the garden.
Here there is clearly huge potential to knock through and possibly extend, creating a dual aspect kitchen dining living space, subject to planning.
A generous separate utility room provides additional storage with access to the triple garage.
The staircase rises to an exceptionally spacious galleried landing, where turned timber balustrades and decorative cornicing reflect the elegance of the reception rooms below.
Five generously proportioned bedrooms occupy the first floor, four benefiting from their own en-suite facilities. Several rooms feature fitted wardrobes, with the larger bedrooms offering ample space for additional seating or dressing furniture. A separate family bathroom serves the remaining accommodation.
A further staircase leads to the second floor, where two substantial bedrooms and an additional bedroom/study are served by another bathroom. Sloping ceilings and roof windows give this level its own character, creating an appealing setting for older children, visiting family or a spacious home office.
OutsideAt just over 0.8 acres the plot is a defining feature of the property, providing generous grounds to both the front and rear. The long sweeping driveway passes through an expansive lawned frontage, framed by mature trees, established hedging and ornamental planting, before reaching a broad paved forecourt with extensive parking.
The attached garage offers substantial space for vehicles and storage, with the convenience of internal access through the utility room.
To the rear, a paved terrace provides space for outdoor dining and entertaining, with access from several of the living rooms. Beyond, established lawns, mature trees and richly planted borders create an attractive garden setting with seasonal colour and a pleasing sense of seclusion. The scale of the grounds offers ample room for family enjoyment, alongside the opportunity to explore further landscaping or extension possibilities, subject to the necessary consents.
