Set opposite Sutton Park, this double-fronted Tudor Revival detached house combines period character with generous contemporary family spaces. The home sits behind electric gates on a very large plot of approximately 0.4 acres, with a gated gravel driveway, garage and mature landscaped gardens that deliver privacy and room for outdoor living.
Internally the layout suits family life and entertaining: a large open-plan kitchen/breakfast/family room with vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, underfloor heating and bi-fold doors to the garden is complemented by a separate lounge, sitting room, office and games room. Five bedrooms include a main bedroom with en suite; the principal rooms retain character features such as beamed ceilings, oak strip flooring and an inglenook fireplace.
Practical strengths include mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators plus underfloor heating in key ground-floor zones, recent double glazing (installed 2002+), a useful utility room and a 21'6" garage. The property is freehold, in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent mobile signal and immediate access to green space and well-regarded local schools.
Notable considerations: the house dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls with no fitted cavity insulation (assumed), which may affect running costs despite some modern heating upgrades. Broadband speeds are listed as slow, and council tax is high (Band G). There are only two bathrooms for five bedrooms which may be a limitation for larger families or when entertaining. Overall this is a spacious, character-rich family home in a prime Sutton Coldfield location that will suit buyers seeking space, privacy and proximity to Sutton Park, but who are mindful of energy efficiency and tech connectivity upgrades.
