This substantial six-bedroom Victorian detached house occupies a generous 0.29-acre plot in Selly Park and suits families seeking space, character and easy access to top schools, the University of Birmingham and the QE Hospital. High ceilings, original fireplaces and bay windows retain strong period character, while a large kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory and utility provide modern family convenience. The private, south-facing wrap-around garden and extensive lawns create a secluded outdoor living space for children and entertaining.
The principal suite is a clear family highlight — a grand bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a large en-suite offering bath, walk-in shower and dual basins. Three formal reception rooms (two with original fireplaces) give flexible living: playroom, study, formal dining and separate family lounge. Practical additions include a cellar for storage or conversion, driveway parking and a long garage with direct garden access.
Buyers should note this is a historic home (circa 1870) within a conservation area: period maintenance and sensitive refurbishment may be required. The property has double glazing and gas central heating, but the Energy Performance Certificate is rated E and council tax is described as quite expensive — both likely to affect running costs. The vendor information also advises that measurements and some details are for guidance; prospective purchasers should arrange professional surveys and legal checks.
Overall this is a rare opportunity to own a substantial, characterful family residence in a highly convenient location. It will particularly suit families who value generous accommodation, garden space and proximity to excellent schooling, and who are comfortable with ongoing maintenance typical of a large Victorian home.
