House For Sale £850,000
“A Rare Opportunity To Purchase” Is Such An Estate Agent's Cliché, Except When It’s True! Don’t miss your chance to buy a superb, spacious and immaculate family home on one of Sutton Coldfield’s most sought after streets.
Featherston Road is a quiet, leafy street with imposing detached family homes that are as individual as their owners.
When families move here they tend to stay a while, that’s why they don’t come up for sale very often. You have to go back to 2021 for the last sale…and that’s one of only four properties that have changed hands in the last 5 years.
This substantial period property has been thoughtfully maintained to retain its period charm. But it’s also been sympathetically updated and extended to create a superb and versatile family home that’s well equipped to cope with our busy modern lives.
There’s no shortage of reception rooms on the ground floor. In addition to a family room, dining room and a cosy sitting room there’s a handy home office at the rear of the house. Perfect if you need some peace and quiet to do some work or make a Zoom call.
The kitchen is modern and well equipped but as this is at the front of the house there is scope for some creative reconfiguration.
There’s a side passage next to the kitchen, it leads to the utility then through to the back garden. It definitely could be put to better use.
If you had the vision (and the budget to match) you may want to ask an architect to look at creating a sociable space for cooking, eating and relaxing together at the rear.
The secluded back garden is just crying out for a rear extension with full width bi-fold doors, making it perfect for summer entertaining.
Upstairs has four double bedrooms and a single bedroom.
With both a stylish bathroom and a shower room there should be no early morning queues or arguments when everyone is rushing to head out to work or school.
The outside of this spacious family home is almost as impressive as inside. There’s space to park a fleet of cars on the gravel drive and the southwest facing rear garden measures over 18m.
Featherston Road is a great example of a leafy suburban street that’s only a 10 minute walk from Sutton Park. The 2,400 acre nature reserve has open heathland, woodlands, seven lakes, wetlands and marshes - there’s so much to explore.
It’s also handy for the shops in Streetly and Mere Green.
It’s only a 3 minute drive to Tesco Express in Streetly or 7 minutes to Mere Green where there’s a greater selection of shops, cafés and takeaways.
If you’re heading further afield it’s only a 10 minute drive to the centre of Sutton Coldfield. You could park your car at the station, which has over 80 trains running per day.
It’s also a handy way to get into Birmingham without having to worry about parking. The average journey to New Street takes around 17 minutes, making it ideal for commuters.
If you have younger children, Manor Primary School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is less than 15 minutes walk away.
Older kids are able attend the “Outstanding” Streetly Academy, which is only a 6 minute drive or a 10 minute bike ride away.
If you’re experiencing even the slightest feeling of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) you really need to see this superb property for yourself.
It’s in a sought-after location and has the perfect combination of being immaculate and ready to move into with the scope to make it even better when the time is right.
