Summary
A detached residence with generous accommodation of approximately 4,632 sq. ft offering huge potential for refurbishment and expansion (subject to necessary planning consents), all set within a plot of approximately 0.25 acres. Currently, the residence is very suitable for an extended family or a care type facility, including a 'guest wing' or annex space.

The property is positioned in an enviable semi-rural location, enjoying walks along the beautiful Worcester and Birmingham canal with a popular Marston's owned canal side eatery on the doorstep, just 5 minutes from the Midlands motorway network and easy access to local amenities within both Barnt Green, Alvechurch and Longbridge. 

Description
The highly versatile accommodation comprises: Enclosed porch, grand entrance hall with guest WC and cloaks cupboard, generous triple aspect living room, sizeable office, formal dining room, large kitchen/diner and lobby leading to a large walk in storage cupboard, utility room and rear hall.

The first floor features a galleried landing, master bedroom with luxury en suite bathroom, three additional double bedrooms and house bathroom. 

The vast second floor loft space is currently for storage but could potentially be converted into a bedroom suite. 

Accessed from either within the main house or via it's own entrance at the front, the 'guest wing' (or potential annex facility) offers a large first floor double bedroom and separate WC. 

Outside
An attractive lawned and paved garden of approx. 0.25 acres is located at the rear, continuing to the side and an integral double garage and adjoining garden room are both accessible from the front. 

A 1 acre (approx.) adjoining paddock may be available by separate negotiation.

The residence is located upon a development containing three other barn dwellings that will feature common parts as well as already existing individual garaging (single garage included within the sale of Bridge Farm) therefore a service agreement and charges will be put in place (to be advised). A shared driveway will provide access to each property. 

Location
The residence is situated between the quaint village of Alvechurch and rural Hopwood, conveniently located (and also within catchment) for Alvechurch First and Middle schools as well as shopping, pubs and restaurants within Alvechurch village centre, walks along the local canal network and Alvechurch railway station. 'The Hopwood House' is situated on the doorstep and two renowned public houses, the 'Peacock Inn' and the 'Coach and Horses' (with it's own mini brewery) lie approximately 2.3 miles away. The beautiful Lickey Hills are just a short distance away offering wonderful walks that enjoy panoramic views over the surrounding countryside.

Also nearby are the facilities offered by the recently regenerated Longbridge site (former MG Rover car plant), home to the largest Marks and Spencers in the Midlands and just 5 minutes from the nearby motorway network bringing within reach central Birmingham (9.8 miles) and is just 16 miles from Birmingham Airport.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 17, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
