Sherifoot Lane, Sutton Coldfield

REF: JC0739 - Built in 1921, this home on Sherifoot Lane is everything people love about period houses. High ceilings, character, and craftsmanship but without any of the hard work. It’s been completely renovated from top to bottom, thoughtfully brought into the modern day with style, warmth and real attention to detail. It’s one of those places where you can just move straight in, unpack, and feel instantly at home.

You’re greeted by a proper entrance hall. Wide, welcoming and full of light, with the staircase taking pride of place and parquet flooring running underfoot. It’s the kind of space that gives you a feel for the rest of the house. Homely, elegant and full of personality.

To the front, the lounge is the perfect grown-up retreat. The exposed brick fireplace, bespoke shelving, and deep, moody tones create a space that feels both sophisticated and cosy. Ideal for movie nights or just switching off at the end of a long day.

At the back of the house is where it really opens up. The kitchen/diner is a showstopper. Sleek shaker cabinetry in soft grey, quartz worktops, brass fittings, under-cabinet lighting and a gorgeous herringbone floor that ties it all together. There’s a range cooker, Belfast sink, and plenty of prep space for the keen cook, plus a breakfast bar for your morning coffee or a glass of wine while dinners on. The dining area sits beside the windows overlooking the garden, making it a bright, social space that’s perfect for family life or entertaining.

Off the kitchen, the utility room keeps everything neat and functional, and the downstairs W.C. has been finished with real design flair. Dark walls, modern fittings, and a pop of personality. Even the under-stairs space has been cleverly turned into a stylish little home office/pantry nook, complete with slatted ceiling and built-in desk ideal for working from home or managing the day-to-day.

Upstairs, the quality continues. The main bedroom feels calm and boutique-like, with neutral tones, shutters and a pretty period fireplace. The second bedroom is another great double, beautifully styled with soft green panelling, and the third is currently a nursery but would make a perfect office or guest room. The bathroom has had the full treatment too. Crisp tiling brushed brass fixtures, and a rainfall shower over the bath. Everything feels light, fresh and finished to a really high standard.

Then there’s the garden, and it’s a good one too. A long, private space that’s far bigger than you’d expect for this part of Sutton, with plenty of room for the kids to play, for summer get-togethers, or for that garden room you’ve always talked about. It’s got the space and flexibility to grow with you.

This is one of those rare homes that blends 1920s charm with a fresh, modern lifestyle. Stylish, spacious and ready to move into. All the character, none of the compromise.

Location

Living on Sherifoot Lane feels like you’ve landed in one of Sutton Coldfield’s sweet spots. That perfect blend of leafy calm and everyday convenience. You’ve got that peaceful, tree-lined street vibe where the houses are proper homes, not just postcodes, but you’re also only a short stroll from everything you actually need.

Pop down the road and you’re in Mere Green, where brunch spots, bars and coffee shops line the high street. Whether it’s an early morning flat white at The Lounge, picking up something from M&S, or a relaxed evening at one of the local pubs, it’s all on your doorstep. And when you need a real dose of green, Sutton Park (one of Europe’s largest urban parks) is just a few minutes away. It’s the sort of place you’ll find yourself walking the dog, cycling with the kids, or just clearing your head with a Sunday stroll around the lakes.

Commuting’s a doddle too. Butlers Lane station is within walking distance, with trains that’ll have you in Birmingham in around twenty minutes. If you’re driving, you’re close to the A38 and M6 Toll, so getting in or out of the city is straightforward. It’s one of those places that’s peaceful at home but brilliantly connected when you need it.

Families love this patch because the schools are fantastic. The Arthur Terry School and Mere Green Primary are both nearby, along with a choice of highly regarded independents in Sutton and the surrounding area. Add in parks, sports clubs, and a genuinely welcoming community, and you’ve got somewhere that just feels easy to live in.

Sherifoot Lane is the kind of address that people in Sutton Coldfield nod at approvingly. It’s mature, established, and a little bit special. The sort of place you settle into not just somewhere you pass through.
