1 De Montfort Mews, Parkfield, Coleshill, Birmingham, B46 3AP

Why this home is Chosen...

Number 1 De Montfort Mews presents a truly rare opportunity to acquire a home of exceptional character, beautifully positioned within the highly sought after historic town of Coleshill. Built in 1872 and originally serving as the Victorian Parochial School. Its rich history and architectural significance were formally recognised when it was Grade II listed in August 2000, before being thoughtfully converted into a collection of individually sized residential properties.

This Grade II listed home blends charm, space, practicality and individuality in a way that very few properties can. From the moment you arrive, the sense of warmth and personality is unmistakable.

Approached via allocated parking for two vehicles, the home immediately sets itself apart. Two separate garden and patio areas further enhance its appeal, offering wonderful spaces for entertaining, relaxing or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Whether you prefer a sunny morning coffee spot or an evening retreat, this home provides both.

Come on in...

Stepping inside, you are welcomed into a light and airy porch, setting the tone for the characterful accommodation that follows.

To the left, the bright and spacious kitchen diner enjoys dual aspect windows that fill the room with natural light. This is a sociable, inviting space, the true heart of the home, perfect for family meals, relaxed mornings or entertaining friends. Next to the kitchen is a convenient downstairs wc which houses the boiler and offers access to the loft space. Continuing along the hallway, past a practical storage cupboard, you reach the generous lounge. This superb living space offers excellent room for both relaxation and entertaining. Patio doors open directly onto one of the two patio gardens, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months. To the opposite side of the hallway sits a highly versatile office or study, ideal for those working from home or needing additional flexible space.

As you ascend the staircase, the home’s true character becomes even more apparent. Impressive ceiling heights, exposed beams and the unique roofline give the upper floor a wonderful sense of charm and authenticity. Upstairs you will find two double bedrooms and one smaller bedroom, each full of personality and shaped beautifully by the architecture of the building. The family bathroom serves two of the bedrooms, while the principal bedroom benefits from its own en suite shower room. A particularly striking feature is the unique window to the side, adding a delightful touch of individuality to the principal suite property. There is generous loft space above the kitchen and downstairs wc providing excellent additional storage and further enhancing the practicality of this home.

Let’s go outside…

Externally, this home continues to impress. It benefits from two charming courtyard gardens, each offering its own character and purpose, and together providing sunlight from different aspects throughout the day.

The first courtyard sits just in front of the kitchen, creating a perfect spot for morning coffee, relaxed weekend breakfasts or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings as the day begins. This area feels wonderfully private and is ideal for pots, plants or a small bistro set. The second courtyard is accessed directly from the lounge, extending your living space outdoors and making it a natural place for entertaining, dining or unwinding on warmer evenings. With its easy flow from the main living area, it becomes an effortless extension of the home — perfect for summer gatherings or a quiet glass of wine at the end of the day. Together, these two outdoor spaces offer a rare combination of versatility, privacy and charm, giving you the freedom to enjoy the sunshine at different times of day and to create distinct areas for relaxing, dining and entertaining.
