Summary - BROOK HOUSE BARN SALTER STREET HOCKLEY HEATH SOLIHULL B94 6DQ
3 bed 2 bath Barn Conversion
Distinctive 3‑bed barn with large landscaped garden and extensive outdoor entertaining space.
Detached 300‑year‑old barn conversion with character features
Brook House Barn is a striking 300‑year‑old detached barn conversion set well back from Salter Street with a distinctive black timber façade and generous, landscaped grounds. The conversion (1980s) retains exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and oak flooring while offering modern comforts including a bespoke shaker kitchen, gas central heating and contemporary bathroom fittings. The flexible layout includes a dramatic open-plan living/dining space with bi-fold doors, a mezzanine bedroom accessed by a spiral staircase, and a useful utility/laundry area.
The rear garden is a major selling point: sweeping lawns, mature planting, a paved sun terrace with pergola, timber-framed bar, outdoor kitchen, large pond, summerhouse and a separate workshop/store provide extensive outdoor entertaining and hobby space. Driveway parking for multiple cars and a gated entrance add convenience and privacy. The home sits in a semi‑rural, affluent area with good road links and local schools nearby, making it well suited to families seeking countryside character within easy reach of Solihull and motorway connections.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations. The property sits on a large plot with a private sewage treatment plant located in the grounds and solid brick walls that are assumed to have no cavity insulation. Standard broadband in the area is slow (predicted ~20 Mbps down / 1 Mbps up), although the vendor uses Starlink which can deliver much faster speeds. Flood risk information includes a medium rating on the supplied data. Council tax is at the upper end (Band F), reflecting the location and property size.
Overall, this is a characterful, substantial family home offering abundant outside space and period charm combined with contemporary living. It will appeal to buyers who value privacy, entertaining outdoors and a distinctive property with scope to personalise and maintain historic features.
