Avenue Road, Dorridge, B93 8JU

Set in one of Dorridge’s most sought after residential areas, this distinctive Arts and Crafts style home offers an impressive combination of space, quality and versatility, with beautifully planned accommodation arranged over three floors.

The location is a real part of the appeal. Dorridge village and railway station are both within walking distance, making it easy to enjoy the cafés, restaurants, shops and everyday amenities close by, as well as direct rail connections into Birmingham and London. The popular village of Knowle is also within easy reach, offering further independent shops, dining and a lively village atmosphere, while Solihull is only a short drive away for a wider choice of shopping, leisure and restaurants.

Families are particularly well catered for, with a strong choice of schooling in the surrounding area. Dorridge Primary School is located within the village, while Arden Academy is close by in Knowle, adding to the appeal for buyers looking to combine excellent day to day convenience with access to established local schools.

Extending to more than 4,000 sq. ft., the house sits behind automatic gates with a generous block paved driveway providing parking for several vehicles. The exterior has a strong sense of individuality, while inside the layout has been thoughtfully arranged to suit both family life and entertaining.

A spacious entrance hall sets the tone for the accommodation, with a feature stone wall and an oak and glass staircase creating a striking focal point. The standard of finish continues throughout, with underfloor heating to the ground floor, fitted cabinetry, leaded double glazed windows, integrated sound, CCTV and a central vacuum system.

The main living space is centred around the kitchen and family room, a generous open plan area designed to work equally well for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with bespoke cabinetry, quartz work surfaces and a full range of Miele appliances, with plenty of space for dining and relaxed seating. Large bi fold doors open onto the rear terrace and garden, giving the room an easy connection with the outside space.

Alongside this, the ground floor offers several additional reception rooms, giving the house a great deal of flexibility. There is a substantial drawing room with access to the garden, a separate dining room, and an additional snug or home office. A large utility room and useful downstairs WC complete the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor is arranged around a light filled galleried landing, where an impressive double height window adds to the sense of space.

The principal bedroom suite is particularly well considered, with double doors opening onto a Juliet balcony overlooking the rear garden. A dedicated walk in dressing area is fitted with bespoke wardrobes and cabinetry, while the en suite shower room is finished to a luxurious standard.

There are three further double bedrooms on this floor, all with fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom enjoys views over the rear garden and its own en suite shower room, while the third bedroom also benefits from an en suite. A fourth double bedroom is served by the beautifully appointed family bathroom, giving this floor an excellent balance of bedroom and bathroom accommodation. The bathrooms throughout the house have been finished with the same emphasis on quality and attention to detail.

The second floor provides further versatile accommodation, with two additional rooms alongside a dedicated study and separate shower room. One of these rooms is currently used as a music room, while the study is fitted with a desk and built in cabinetry. The layout lends itself particularly well to changing family needs and could work equally well for older children, guests, home working, hobbies or additional bedroom accommodation.

Outside, the rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, bordered by mature shrubs and planting, with a large patio creating a generous area for outdoor dining and entertaining.

There is additional parking to the rear, together with a double garage which is currently used as a gym, offering useful flexibility for storage, parking or leisure space.

What makes the property especially appealing is the balance it offers. There is substantial accommodation, privacy and a high level of finish, yet the house remains exceptionally well placed for village life, rail connections, schools, shops and the wider amenities of Solihull.
