The Doll’s House is a notable Grade II listed building that encapsulates Birmingham's storied past, originally serving as a jewellery warehouse and transitioning through significant historical phases, including wartime manufacturing. Its restoration began in 2018 under DJH Homes Ltd and Historic England's guidance, ensuring the preservation of its distinctive features while integrating modern comforts. This property presents a unique opportunity for further investment, given its blend of historical architecture and potential for customization.
An impressive floating staircase greets you upon entry, leading to an expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area where industrial charm meets contemporary elegance. The high ceilings, original exposed brickwork, and large steel-framed windows create a light-filled atmosphere, ideal for entertaining or family gatherings. A standout secondary structure connected by a glass roof serves as a spacious lounge, enhancing the seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
With a private outdoor patio equipped with a retractable roof, this area expands the living experience year-round. The property also showcases remarkable views over Birmingham City Centre from various angles within the home.
Accommodating three to four spacious bedrooms, each designed with versatility in mind, the master suite stands out with its stunning glass wrap-around feature and luxurious en-suite bathroom. Additional en-suites and ample storage provide privacy and comfort throughout the residence.
Although much of the home's character has been preserved with industrial elements like steel windows present indoors, there remains room for further enhancements tailored to personal taste or modern energy standards. Features such as air conditioning and heating systems are already in place to ensure comfort across all seasons.
The property includes secure parking for up to five cars through an electric driveway, along with a tranquil courtyard that adds to the urban retreat feel amidst city life. Located at the heart of the Jewellery Quarter, owners will have easy access to an array of cultural experiences alongside their private sanctuary.
Investing in The Doll’s House not only means acquiring a home but also taking ownership of a significant piece of Birmingham’s history that can be redefined for future generations.
