This Edwardian semi-detached home on College Road combines classic period character with practical family living. High ceilings, bay windows and original features create a welcoming, light-filled main bedroom and reception rooms, while a large, modern kitchen and generous utility room provide everyday convenience. The property is chain free and comes with off-street parking for two cars and an EV charging point — useful extras for modern family life.
Set in a well-connected part of Sutton Coldfield, the house sits close to strong commuter links (Wylde Green and Chester Road stations), excellent schools and Sutton Park, making it especially suitable for families who need easy access to Birmingham and local green space. The long rear garden, mature trees, kitchen garden and a handmade wooden shed offer private outdoor space ideal for entertaining, children's play or gardening.
Practical considerations: the property has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation and double glazing fitted before 2002 — upgrading insulation and window efficiency would reduce energy costs. There is a single family bathroom and crime in the immediate area is recorded as very high, which may concern some buyers. Some rooms have been virtually staged to illustrate potential layouts.
Overall, this chain-free Edwardian home will suit buyers seeking period charm, generous living space and a large garden close to commuter routes and strong local schools. It offers clear scope for energy improvements and cosmetic updating to increase comfort and long-term value.
