This characterful two-bedroom Victorian cottage sits on an unusually large plot of about 0.40 acres in semi-rural Bournheath, offered with no onward chain. The house retains period features such as original fireplaces and two reception rooms, and benefits from a garage, driveway and direct access to a paddock with stables — a rare find for this price band.
The property requires full modernisation throughout, so it will suit buyers prepared to renovate or extend (subject to planning). The existing layout includes a kitchen, conservatory/utility, bathroom with separate WC and two double bedrooms upstairs; room sizes are comfortable for a cottage of 884 sq ft. Strong commuter links to the M5 and M42 make the location practical for work while retaining peaceful countryside living.
Externally the established garden, outbuilding/store, stables and paddock provide significant scope: keep as private amenity, create equestrian facilities, or explore residential expansion subject to permissions. The large plot and redevelopment potential represent the main value drivers for families, downsizers wanting outside space, or buyers seeking an investment/refurbishment project.
Buyers should budget for full renovation costs and planning fees; services, structural condition and title should be independently checked. This is a straightforward freehold purchase in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent mobile and broadband connectivity — ideal for those wanting a countryside base close to Bromsgrove.
