Kenilworth Road, Balsall Common

Occupying a generous mature plot and set back from the road behind electrically operated gates, this substantially extended and remodelled detached family residence offers impressive accommodation extending to a gross floor area of approximately 3,335 sq ft, including five bedrooms and a host of striking design features.

Thoughtful architectural remodelling to the front of the property has transformed the original 1978 design, with features including a comfortable lounge and a sitting room/library. Arguably the most striking feature of the ground floor is the magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and family room.

The five first-floor bedrooms are complemented by en suite facilities to the principal bedroom, with the accommodation throughout creating a sense of comfort and calm while remaining ideally suited to contemporary family living.

Externally, the house is complemented by extensive parking to the front and a generously proportioned lawned rear garden with a superb terrace and hot tub.

This is an exceptional family home in a sought-after and supremely convenient location.

We understand that mains water, gas, electricity and drainage are connected to the property. We have not carried out any form of testing of appliances, central heating or other services, and prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves as to their condition and efficiency.
