Location

Buying a house is all about location and this home acquires an excellent spot and is one not to be missed. Bearwood is home to the delightful and picturesque grounds of Warley Woods; a 100 acre community park has become the centre of a thriving community. The park’s mix of woodland, open meadow, play area and golf course provide a picturesque green environment for dog walkers, joggers and families to enjoy all year round. The park within the woods hosts a variety of events to include an annual music festival (picnic in the park) and summer open theatre performances.

Additionally, Lightwoods Park lies next to the property, providing the ideal escape from the 'hustle and bustle' of everyday life. Lightwoods House is situated within the park. The Grade II-listed house has been lovingly restored to its 18th century glory and is now a high-quality venue for a wide range of community activities as well as public and private events. The house is also home to the popular '1000 Trades' which is a popular tearoom, pub and kitchen. Building on their original location in the Jewellery Quarter, 1000 Trades on the Park aims to establish itself as part of the vibrant food and drink scene in Bearwood, as well as being firmly rooted in the community.

The location is perfect for enjoying the convenience and atmosphere associated with city living, the Hagley Road offers a direct route into the City Centre and lies round the corner from the property - ideal for commuters.

However being situated outside of the city and on a popular road, the location is ideal for families.
Local amenities such as shopping, banks and cafés are conveniently located on Bearwood Road. Popular independent local establishments include Tamu Cafe, Hello Cafe and the Craft Inn.

Bearwood is also home to locally well regarded schools such as St. Gregory's Primary, Abbey Infant and Junior Schools and Lightwoods Primary; making the location great for families. The area also provides access to local swimming baths and gym facilities.

Bearwood neighbours the village of Harborne, boasting high street shopping, a variety of eateries, entertainment venues and the popular Harborne Leisure Centre.
