Upstairs the principal suite benefits from built-in wardrobes and an en suite; three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the bedroom accommodation. Practical features include an in-and-out driveway, off-road parking for multiple vehicles and a double garage, making arrivals and storage straightforward for busy households.
Location is a strong draw: quiet close on the edge of Dickens Heath with easy access to local independent shops, cafés, and good primary and secondary schools. Transport links to Solihull, the M42 and Whitlock’s End station are convenient for commuters. The property was built in 1997 and sits on a large plot, offering scope for landscaping or further improvement subject to checks.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, council tax is described as quite expensive, and local crime is above average. The EPC is rated C.
