This stunning family home has been meticulously renovated to an exceptional standard, retaining the charm of its 1930s origin, now with a modern-day specification. 0.3 acre plot, double garage and gated in-and-out driveway.
Alderbrook Road continues to perform as an outstanding location close to the town centre, whilst providing green and leafy surroundings. This is a family home which offers a ‘turn-key’ opportunity, along with further potential if desired. Planning permission was granted in February 2020 for further extension under Reference PL/2020/00017/MINFHO to provide extended ground and first floor bedroom accommodation and a loft conversion.
One enters into the impressive hallway, where the high ceilings throughout the property are initially evident, and a bespoke feature fireplace sets the scene of comfort and luxury.
The hallway leads into the large living room, with a dual aspect, and inset fireplace. To the rear is the conservatory, which should the plans from the 2020 planning permission be put to use, would extend this side of the property. The second reception room is accessed from both the living room and reception hallway, and offers versatile use as perhaps a separate dining room, playroom or 2nd home office.
The Siematic designed and fitted kitchen is a vast and light space with underfloor heating, with an initial family area, which also offers the opportunity to curate this into a bar or greater family sitting area, the guest cloakroom accessed from here, also has underfloor heating. A small step leads down to the main kitchen, which has a large island and breakfast bar, with Dekton worktops and a feature dropped ceiling with an integrated extractor. Appliances by Neff include an electric induction hob, Combi oven and second oven. Both the integrated full-size fridge and freezer are by Leibherr. The sink area benefits from a Quooker Flex tap, giving hot, boiling and cold water. Tiling throughout the property, including the kitchen flooring is by Porcelanosa.
On the first floor are 5 bedrooms, the main suite being particularly impressive. There are 2 large walk-in wardrobes, and a vast ensuite, with Porcelanosa tiling, double sinks, underfloor heating and a large walk in shower and WC behind a privacy wall. The main bathroom has a high gabled ceiling, Duravit sanitaryware with a separate bath and shower, along with access to the airing cupboard. Bedrooms 2 and 3 enjoy fitted wardrobes.
The rear westerly facing garden has a large patio area and has been landscaped with Millboard decking, leading down to the lawn. The property sits in a 0.3 acre plot, with established planting and private tree lined rear views.
Location - Solihull town centre is a hub for all generations, providing excellent lifestyle, entertainment and education facilities. Solihull’s own train station just several minutes walk from the main high street of town, offers links to Birmingham, Stratford upon Avon, Leamington Spa and London. The centre of town is home to the thriving indoor Touchwood Shopping centre, renowned for its large John Lewis store, multiple cafés, restaurants and cinema. Malvern and Brueton Park are wonderful to explore in all seasons, with no shortage of picnic spots around the lake and nature reserve.
The town is home to Solihull School, an independent day school set across two campuses, incorporating the well-known Saint Martin’s School for Girls of Brueton Avenue. This progression within the education system will reaffirm Solihull’s appeal for independent education for both boys and girls from ages 3 to 18. Excellent state schooling is also nearby, with all ages catered for along with several options for sixth form studies. Birmingham city centre is approximately 17 miles away, easily reached by the motorway network of the M42 and M6 or equally train within about 15 minutes. Alongside advances in facilities, the town has maintained a charm which resonates throughout many of its prime residential roads, with green and leafy streets evident to this day along with the prominent St Alphege Church.
