Seller Insight With a fantastic green outlook, Andrew and Emma were drawn to this beautiful home five and a half years ago. Set in a lovely pocket of Edgbaston, the community is an oasis within convenient reach of the metropolitan city of Birmingham. The downstairs of the property is open plan and spacious. Our favourite room has to be the kitchen, describes Andrew. It’s got a really unusual double height space, so it’s really light. A lovely space to prepare meals together or entertain friends and family. The property looks out over the lush mature communal spaces of the quiet and protected cul-de-sac, which is part of what makes this property an ideal place to raise a family. We have two children and it has been excellent for them to play safely outside with the other children in the neighbourhood. The house is really well suited to a young family. Within walking distance, you can reach a wellstocked high street with plenty of highly regarded eating and drinking establishments. You can reach the town centre within ten minutes and within 15 minutes you can access the M5 and the countryside beyond. We have spent many weekends enjoying the scenery of Lickey and Clent Hills. There is just the right mix of seclusion and easy access to the city. What we will miss the most is the wonderful immediate and wider location.
