Broad Road, Birmingham

Approach
The impressive frontage of the property boasts a large driveway, offering access to both the main house and the period, coach house side extension. The entire structure was built with custom brick and high-quality materials, sourced locally. The original windows, featuring high-spec, hand-rolled glass and panelled shutters, provide the option to close for privacy or open to enjoy picturesque sunset views over the tree-lined parkland just opposite.

Ground Floor
Upon entering the restored, sizeable front door, you are greeted by an internal porch and grand hallway, featuring corbelled archway, original flagstone floor, access to various rooms, cloakroom and cellar. The front reception room features contemporary décor with hand color-washed walls, a deep-shuttered bay window flooding the room with natural light, and a recently installed log burner in the fireplace, making it the perfect place to unwind. Shutter-style partitioning opens to the second reception room, offering flexibility for an open-plan aspect or separation between the two rooms, both accessible from the hallway. The second reception room showcases original flooring, a feature non-functioning fireplace with a cast-iron, tiled surround, and beautiful views over the rear garden.
Flowing towards the rear is the breakfast room, adjacent to the kitchen, providing an excellent space for entertaining and family dining. This room features another cast-iron fireplace and antique radiator. The kitchen boasts original blue brick flooring and quartz tiling, with charming wall-mounted cupboards, base units with wooden work surfaces, and bronze fittings. Integrated appliances include a gas oven and hob with an extractor fan, a fridge freezer, and a Belfast sink.
Off the second reception room, you access 'The Coachhouse,' an extended space that could be used as a bedroom, office, gym or entertainment room. It features a shuttered, large arched window to the front and access to a ground floor shower room, serving as an ensuite with a shower cubicle, low-level flush WC, and hand wash basin. Beyond this is the utility/laundry space with plumbing and electricity for appliances, additional storage, a WC, and access from the frontage to the rear garden.

First Floor
Ascending the stairs, you reach the landing with wooden flooring, providing access to the top floor, three double bedrooms, and the family bathroom. The rear bedroom is generously sized, with a quirky angled design, a cast-iron fireplace, and a large window to the side elevation. This room leads to the family bathroom, which features a bath, separate shower cubicle, low-level WC, hand wash basin, and wooden panelling framing a large privacy-glazed window. Additionally, there is a separate WC off the entrance hallway. The second bedroom is a spacious double, featuring another fireplace, an antique radiator, and a large window with verdant views to the rear. The primary bedroom faces the front elevation and includes a large sash window with plantation shutters, flooding the room with natural light and offering views of the park opposite. This room benefits from custom-fitted wardrobes hand crafted to the intricate ceiling coving. Wooden folding doors from the bedroom lead to a dressing room with shuttered windows, ideal for conversion into an ensuite.

Second Floor
A cleverly concealed staircase off the hallway leads to the original 'servant's quarters,' now a luxurious space with six Velux-style windows flooding the room with light. Built-in wardrobe space behind fitted doors makes this a perfect loft bedroom, office, art studio, reception room, or tranquil retreat. There is also a door to the remaining eaves, providing further storage with automatic lights.

Self-Contained Apartment
Accessed via the garden, the self-contained apartment offers privacy and is perfect for rental purposes, AirBnB, or a guest house. It features a good-sized bedroom with a modern ensuite shower room, an open-plan kitchen living area with custom-built shelving, black brick effect tiling, appliances (including Range cooker), ample counter and storage space. The room also includes a tiled fireplace, continuing the quirky character of the main property and sharing the same park views via a large sash window.

Rear Garden
The rear garden is a truly beautiful feature of this home. It begins with a quaint courtyard intended for enjoyment with the apartment, filled with mature plants and blooms, with an archway under the entrance steps. Beyond this, the garden extends to a luscious lawned area with well-kept bordering hedges, ensuring privacy and tranquility. The expansive garden offers a large lawn, well-established flower beds, a patio area ideal for outdoor entertaining, and mature fruit trees, continuing the home's offerings.
