4 bedroom detached house for sale

Offered to the market for the first time in over five decades, this substantial four-bedroom detached residence occupies a generous plot approaching a third of an acre on the highly sought-after Monastery Drive in Solihull. Requiring modernisation throughout, the property presents an exceptional opportunity to remodel, extend or reconfigure (subject to the necessary planning consents) and create a superb long-term family home in a prime residential setting.

Set back from the road behind a driveway providing ample off-road parking, the property also benefits from an integral garage, offering further potential for conversion if desired. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and provides well-balanced, versatile living space. An enclosed porch opens into a central hallway with staircase rising to the first floor and access to all principal ground floor rooms. To the front of the property is a generously proportioned lounge enjoying a large window overlooking the frontage. This is complemented by a separate dining room, ideal for formal entertaining and conveniently positioned adjacent to the kitchen. The kitchen overlooks the rear garden and provides excellent scope to be opened up into a contemporary kitchen/dining/family space. From the kitchen there is access to a useful ground floor WC and an extensive additional storage room, offering further development possibilities. A separate reception room provides valuable flexibility and could serve as a study, snug or playroom depending on requirements.

To the first floor, a central landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms offer versatile accommodation suitable for family living, guests or home working. A family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms.

Externally, the property’s true appeal lies in its exceptional plot. The rear garden extends significantly behind the house, offering a high degree of privacy, mature surroundings and enormous scope for extension. A plot approaching one third of an acre is rarely available in such a well-established Solihull location and represents a significant opportunity for enhancement.

Monastery Drive is one of Solihull’s most desirable residential roads, ideally positioned for convenient access to Solihull town centre with its excellent range of shops, restaurants and amenities. The property is well placed for highly regarded local schooling, Solihull Train Station with direct links to Birmingham and London, and easy access to the M42 and wider motorway network. Requiring modernisation but offering substantial proportions, flexible accommodation and outstanding potential, this much-loved family home represents a rare opportunity to acquire and transform a property in a premier Solihull location. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the scale, setting and long-term potential on offer.
