Summary
A charming barn conversion, converted in 2005 and beautifully improved by the current owners, offering a beautiful blend of character and contemporary comfort. Particular highlights include two inviting reception rooms, one with a wood-burning stove, while a cleverly designed ‘secret’ playroom/office adds a delightful touch of surprise. The extended ground floor principal bedroom suite is a superb retreat, complete with a luxury en suite shower room, dressing area, and direct access to the garden. Outside, the beautifully landscaped rear garden is perfect for entertaining on long summer evenings, complemented by generous parking for family and guests alike. Ideally positioned on the edge of open countryside yet in the very heart of the sought after village of Alvechurch, the property benefits from easy access to the local train station, village amenities, excellent schooling and the motorway network.
Description
The accommodation comprises an open aspect, panelled dining room with stairs rising to the first floor and access to a guest WC. The dining room leads through to a charming country-style kitchen, boasting a lovely high ceiling, Belfast sink, integrated dishwasher, washing machine and recently installed BOSCH oven and induction hob, together with a recently installed fridge/freezer. The kitchen opens into a characterful living room featuring a multi-fuel burning stove, exposed brick walls, and a striking vaulted barrel ceiling. French doors open to the front, with further access to the rear garden. From the living room, a bespoke, custom-sized door provides access to a child’s playroom/office, which also benefits from full-sized door access from the garden. The loft area above the garage storage is accessible from here.
The sublime split-level principal bedroom suite on the ground floor features a dressing area with bespoke fitted wardrobes by ‘Sharps’, a contemporary en suite shower room with walk in double shower, basin and illuminated mirror, and a bedroom area with vaulted ceiling, Velux windows, and direct access onto the garden - creating a wonderful private retreat.
The first floor offers high ceilings and a number of Velux skylights, two well-proportioned double bedrooms, and a luxury house bathroom complete with a charming claw-foot bath, floating WC, basin and illuminated mirror.
High-quality character features are found throughout and include oak internal doors with quality door furniture, traditional style column radiators, a leaded barrel-vault roof to the sitting room with louvre and feature weathervane, Welsh slate tiles to the main roof, and traditional cast-iron gutters and downpipes.
Outside
The beautiful rear garden is arranged in a courtyard style, featuring a block-paved dining area with metal pergola and bamboo screening in wooden planters. The lawn is complemented by raised planting beds and a further patio seating area, all enclosed by fenced boundaries - perfect for entertaining and relaxing. A gate leads to the side of the property to a parking area suitable for two vehicles. To the front, within the courtyard, half of the semi-circular garden border belongs to this property, together with the ornamental street lamp. The courtyard also provides access to parking at the front of the property, garage storage, and there is a log store conveniently located by the front door.
