A handsome, early 17th-century red-brick residence, recently refurbished to a high standard, set in about 4.15 acres of formal gardens and paddock. The main house offers five bedrooms plus principal suite with dressing room and en‑suite; a detached two‑bed coach house provides self-contained accommodation — together totalling approximately 5,299 sqft. The property suits equestrian use, multi‑generational living or a high-end country base with substantial outdoor space, stables and outbuildings.
Interior highlights include elegant reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room with Aga and island, a striking garden room with panoramic views, and useful cellar storage. Externally there is parking for several vehicles, a block‑paved patio for the coach house, formal planted terraces, a fishpond, greenhouse, workshop and a yard of stables. The setting is private and semi‑rural while still offering quick access to the Midlands motorway network and Birmingham Airport.
Practical considerations are clear and factual: broadband speeds are very slow, broadband-dependent working-from-home setups will need alternative solutions; the building’s solid-brick construction likely requires thermal upgrade work (insulation) to improve energy efficiency. Crime in the area is reported above average and the main house has only two bathrooms for five bedrooms, so families should consider layout versus needs. Services are reported as mains gas, water, drainage and electricity; services and appliances have not been independently tested.
Overall this is a rare, large plot with strong equestrian and ancillary‑accommodation potential. The recent high‑quality refurbishment reduces immediate cosmetic work, yet buyers should budget for energy improvements and check permissions for any change of use or further adaptation of outbuildings. Viewing is recommended for those seeking substantial private grounds with flexible living arrangements close to motorway links.
