Property description

If you want a family home that oozes elegance and sophistication, this impressive 4-double bedroomed modern detached home could be perfect. I can’t find enough superlatives to describe this detached home!

Approach through private gated access to this impressive home, built in 2017 by the current owners. A large driveway leads to the garage and allows parking for multiple vehicles. There is access to the rear from the left-hand side.

Enter the grand hallway, with its pale floor tiling, pale décor, magnificent chandelier, and floor to ceiling glass front, light floods the space. The formal dining room, cloakroom, study, and lounge are all to the right of the hallway. The lounge has bi-fold windows that open to the garden, bringing the outdoors inside on nice days. Equally, a room to be cosy on cold winter days gathered around the fireplace.

Given the size of the kitchen/living/dining area, there is flexibility to configure reception rooms in a way that works best for the family. The dining room could become a private space for older (or younger!) children to entertain friends out of the grown-up’s way, for example.

The opulent floor tiles extend into the substantial kitchen/living/dining area. Standing in the kitchen equipped with smart units and an array of integrated neff appliances, including oven, grill, induction hob, fridge, and freezer, and the bifold doors opening to the garden, this is the epitome of entertaining and socialising. You can hear the chatter of friends and family and see them sipping wine while the meal is cooking. An attractive heater, impersonating a wood burner, sits in the living area, making a cosy place in winter. The utility is attached to the kitchen and houses more units, another sink, and has plumbing for a washing machine and space for a dryer. There’s a door to the outside; useful if you’re coming in from dirty outdoor activities.

From the hallway, the staircase with a striking wood and glass bannister leads to the first floor, where the four bedrooms and bathroom are located. The landing is bathed in light thanks to the floor to ceiling glazing to the front of the property. It has a storage cupboard and access to the loft that could be converted to a fifth bedroom if desired.

All bedrooms are substantial doubles, boasting recessed downlights and sleek lines of built-in wardrobes in every room. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are to the front elevation. Both have charm, with a dorma front view to bedroom three. Bedroom two and the master are at the back overlooking the garden. The master bedroom has an ensuite shower room, reminiscent of an upmarket luxury hotel, fully tiled in light, neutral tones with a huge walk-in shower, ceramic hand basin with vanity units and toilet. The family bathroom is also suggestive of a boutique hotel. It’s fully tiled in neutral hues, and the double-ended freestanding bath makes a statement under the window. The walk-in dual shower cubical has a rainfall showerhead. Completing the room is a ceramic hand basin with vanity units, a toilet, and a tall, heated towel rail.

The private rear garden has an impressive patio running the width of the back of the house, creating an ideal area for socialising. A set of stately steps lead down to more paving and the lawn that wraps itself around the lower paved area. It’s easy to conjure pictures of children’s games on this generous lawn, particularly when you spy the splendid treehouse above the barked area at the far end of the garden - a relaxing retreat. Trees and shrubs surround the garden, making it relatively low maintenance, and giving you more time to enjoy it.

Just minutes from Streetly, with its fine coffee shops and restaurants, and with highly regarded schools locally, this home is in a great family-friendly location. Whether you work from home or need to commute, there are good links to many West Midlands towns or cities.
