Two double bedrooms, two single bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes, and family bathroom. Rear garden with decked area superb for entertaining. Conveniently located within the delightful village of Balsall Common with a great range of cafes, bars and restaurants, well regarded schools with good transport links to Birmingham and the M42.

GROUND FLOOR

Upon arrival you are welcomed by a spacious hallway with access to the guest WC and contemporary glass balustrade staircase, leading to the first floor. The hallway is neutrally presented with wooden flooring which guides you through the ground floor accommodation.

There are double doors leading from the hallway into the spacious, bright and sunny sitting room providing plenty of natural light from the windows to the front and side elevations. This room enjoys a feature fireplace in the centre providing a modern focal point and is neutrally decorated with wooden flooring.

The large, modern kitchen/diner can be accessed from the sitting room or from the hallway. This light and bright breakfast kitchen with dining area includes a feature island which really is at the heart of this home and is a great space for entertaining friends and family. The kitchen area has an excellent range of contemporary white cabinets, central gas hob and extractor over, double oven, wine fridge and space for an American style fridge freezer. French doors lead out from the dining area onto the decked patio giving a feeling of bringing the outdoors in and perfect for al fresco dining. There is also a door leading to the garage.

SELLER INSIGHT It was the superb village location of the house which first drew us to 705 Kenilworth Road,” say the current owners, “scenic and

serene yet close to the airport and local train station. All the amenities of the friendly village of Balsall Common are within easy reach, including excellent schools, shops, and a fantastic range of cafes, bars and restaurants. There is a wonderful sense of community in the village too – the local florist even remembers my wife’s favourite flowers when I pop in to buy a birthday bouquet, for example.”

“The house itself is very attractive too, and perfect for family life and entertaining alike,” continue the owners. “Since moving in, we have extended the house and renovated throughout to create our ideal home: open, spacious, and flooded with natural light. However, there is still the possibility of extending the house further with lots of potential to increase the overall square footage. Our favourite space is the large modern kitchen diner, which opens out onto a huge terrace to provide the perfect indoor-outdoor entertaining space. The whole house flows beautifully between the living, kitchen, dining and outside spaces, and with the sun shining all day in the rear garden, has played host to countless barbecues and special occasions, including our daughter’s first birthday party. The extensive rear lawn is fabulous for children to run around too, while the generous front garden still possesses plenty of potential for further development, with space for a car port, for example.”

“We currently live in France and are in the process of making this a permanent move,” say the owners, “but we shall miss this house dearly. The property has proven popular with renters too, being in the catchment area for fantastic schools and so well placed for local transport. The train station is within walking distance for trains to Birmingham and London, with the M42 motorway accessible within a 5 minute drive. Travel abroad is easy from here too, as a taxi to the airport costs just £12, saving the expense and hassle of paying for parking while you are away. Closer to home, we love our weekend walks with the dog around the grounds of Kenilworth Castle, or trips into Solihull for shopping and entertainments.”*
