House For Sale £1,000,000
Occupying a prime position on one of Solihull's most aspirational roads, we are proud to bring to the market this charming 1920s property that has been in the family for over 50 years, full of character and delightful original features. This wonderful home is in need of modernization, but with its incredibly large southwest-facing rear and exceptionally large frontage, featuring an In-Out driveway, it offers enormous potential to become one of the standout family homes on this much sought-after road.
From the moment you approach 38 Broad Oaks Road, you are immediately captivated by the beautiful character of the house and the impressive double entrance driveway. The mature front gardens with ample parking, double and single garages make it truly welcoming.
The property retains much of its original character, including the wooden beams in the main lounge, stained glass windows, and original fireplaces. The storm porch, with its beautiful stained glass peacock window, leads into the delightful reception hall, which features the staircase and leads to the main reception rooms. The living room is exceptionally large, with a feature fireplace and a sunroom to the rear that offers stunning views through the large picture window across the mature private gardens. There is a sizable office that leads off to the double garage, and a side door leading to the orangery. Additionally, there is a separate formal dining room, again with a fireplace, overlooking the front garden. Next, there is a small storage area under the stairs in the hallway, along with a guest WC located beyond it. A breakfast room leads off the hallway, connecting to the orangery at the rear of the property, while the kitchen leads off from the breakfast room and connects to the large utility room, single garage, storeroom, and an additional outside WC. Upstairs, there are five double-sized bedrooms, although currently, three of them are being used as singles due to the amount of storage shelving and wardrobes. There is a family bathroom with a shower and a separate WC, both leading off a large first-floor hallway.
Outside
This property is exceptionally located, both in its position on Broad Oaks Road and its southwest-facing aspect. There are very few properties on this road or in the area that offer such a large frontage and beautiful gardens divided into distinctive areas, providing incredible outdoor space for the whole family. The rear garden has been meticulously groomed and maintained over the years, maturing into a beautiful relaxation area with an abundance of mature trees, shrubs, and plants. It features a potting shed, a summer house, and offers complete privacy from neighbouring gardens and residences, thanks to a beautiful wisteria tunnel that leads to the rear of the garden. In this area, you'll find the wild garden, greenhouse, netted fruit tunnel, and shed, all of which can be accessed through the orangery, utility room, or two side entrances, enhancing the charm of this mature relaxation space.
When considering this lovely long-standing property with its abundance of character and charm, you may find yourself torn between appreciating its beautiful mature gardens and opting to retain the existing features while restyling the interior. Alternatively, you might be captivated by the vast plot of land this southwest-facing property occupies and envision creating something entirely new from scratch. Undoubtedly, this presents a rare and incredible opportunity to craft and perfect a family home in what is widely regarded as one of the best locations within Solihull.
