House For Sale £1,000,000
Occupying a prime position on one of Solihull’s most aspirational roads, we are proud to be bringing to market this charming 1930’s property that has been in the family for over 40 years. Full of character and delightful original features, this wonderful home is in need of modernisation but with its incredibly large south facing rear garden and exceptionally large frontage it offers enormous potential to become one of the standout family homes on this much sought after road.
From the moment you approach 5 Alderbrook Road, you are immediately taken with the beautiful character of the house, the impressively large frontage, delightful private gardens, and an excellent sized driveway. The property retains much of its original character including some beautiful oak flooring, stained glass windows and original fireplaces. The storm porch and fabulous original oak front door leads into the delightful reception hall that has the oak staircase and main reception rooms leading off. The living room is exceptionally large with a feature open fireplace and large sunroom to one end offering lovely views across the very mature private gardens. There is a separate dining room, again with a fireplace having an open gas fire and also overlooking the fabulous rear gardens. A small office leads off the hallway with a guest wc beyond it. The breakfast kitchen offers huge scope for extension to create a new open plan family breakfast kitchen and currently offers a dining area and built in kitchen. From here you have a laundry room and access either side into the integrated garages, one being a tandem and access into the rear garden, and to the other side you have a larger than average single garage. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom, a large family bathroom and a sauna.

As locations go, this is exceptional in terms of both its position on Alderbrook Road and having a South facing aspect, however, there are very few gardens left of this stature and size that can offer such an incredible outdoor space for all the family. Having a very wide plot, the garden has been lovingly created over the years and has matured into a superbly private peaceful space to enjoy. Split into two distinctive areas, the first offers a crazy pathing patio across the back and pathway down one side of the garden, and a superb large lawned area bordered by stunning mature trees and shrubbery, such as Acers, Rhododendron’s and Eucalyptus. Offering complete privacy from neighbouring gardens you follow the path, past an ornamental pond and up to the second completely screened rear part of the gardens, which open up to reveal a large outdoor swimming pool, terrace and outbuildings including a summerhouse. All in need of refurbishment this fabulous private pool area could easily be transformed back to its former glory.
Whether you see this lovely longstanding property for all its character and charm and decide to retain the features but upgrade and restyle throughout, or you appreciate the enormous plot this south facing property sits within and decide to create something new from scratch, there is no doubt this is a rare and incredible opportunity to craft the perfect family home on what is considered to be one of the best locations on Alderbrook Road.
