Description

This detached family home, nestled in one of Sutton Coldfield's most desirable residential neighborhoods, presents a promising canvas for renovation and investment. Situated on a generous corner plot surrounded by mature gardens, the property offers ample space for expansion or reconfiguration, pending necessary planning approvals. Previously granted planning permission has lapsed, which opens opportunities for potential investors to explore new design options. The property features a classic black-and-white half-timbered exterior that adds to its traditional appeal, while the interior spans an impressive 3,496 square feet (325 square meters), providing a flexible living layout. Upon entering, you are greeted by a spacious reception hall that connects to three sizable reception rooms. The drawing room and sitting room boast inviting fireplaces, ideal for creating warm gathering spaces. A dining room adjoins the kitchen and breakfast area, leading to a bright conservatory that overlooks the lush garden—perfect for both casual family time and entertaining guests. With five bedrooms located on the upper level, including a substantial principal suite, there is plenty of accommodation space for families. The bedrooms offer pleasant views of the surrounding greenery, complemented by a large family bathroom that serves the upper floors. The exterior grounds are characterized by wrap-around gardens that provide both privacy and an open feel. The extensive driveway allows for off-road parking and provides access to the integral double garage. The rear garden primarily features a lawn bordered by established trees and shrubs, along with a paved terrace—ideal for outdoor gatherings or quiet moments in nature. Located within walking distance of Four Oaks Railway Station ensures convenient transport links into Birmingham City Centre and Lichfield. Residents can take advantage of nearby Sutton Coldfield Town Centre's excellent amenities, including boutique shops and restaurants, as well as easy access to Sutton Park—the expansive green space known across Europe. Moreover, this area benefits from top-rated local schools and good road connections via the M6 and M42 motorways. This property not only offers immediate comfort but also significant potential to adapt and enhance—it stands as an exceptional opportunity for families looking to invest in their future in a sought-after locale.
