Crabtree Lane, Bromsgrove, B61 8PQ

Set along the peaceful and picturesque Crabtree Lane, this beautifully restored former nailers cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Bromsgrove’s heritage. Believed to date back to the late 1800s and held within the same family for over a century, this enchanting home has been lovingly transformed through a complete and sensitive renovation that celebrates its period character while introducing modern comfort and style.

From the moment you arrive, the property exudes charm with its cottage façade, traditional detailing, and front garden that enjoys a sunny aspect overlooking open fields. Inside, the home unfolds into a thoughtfully arranged layout that perfectly balances history and modern living.

The welcoming porch opens into a spacious dining room, featuring the original beams and offering flexibility as a second reception room or home workspace, with stairs leading to the first floor. To the right, a generous living room spans the depth of the property, showcasing a striking Welsh slate feature wall, exposed beams, and patio doors opening to a private rear courtyard  being an inviting spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation.

At the heart of the home lies a brand new kitchen, designed in keeping with the cottage’s traditional style yet equipped with modern integrated appliances including a dishwasher, oven, hob, and extractor. Beyond the kitchen is a refurbished utility room and a downstairs WC, providing excellent practicality for family life.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three of which are doubles and one a smaller single, ideal for a nursery, guest room, or study. The principal bedroom enjoys a newly fitted en-suite with rainfall shower, contemporary vanity unit, and heated towel rail, while the family bathroom has been elegantly refurbished with an L-shaped shower bath and rainfall shower above. Every room has been beautifully redecorated, with new flooring, plasterwork, and windows throughout.
