Description

Property Reference: SH17979

Some houses are bought for their square footage. Others are chosen because they simply feel like home.

This property is undoubtedly the latter.

Dating back to the late 1800s, this beautifully extended Victorian semi-detached home occupies an enviable position on Heath Street, one of Stourbridge Old Quarter's most admired residential roads. Behind its handsome period façade lies over 1,500 sq ft of thoughtfully designed accommodation, where original character sits effortlessly alongside contemporary family living.

From the moment you step through the front door, it's clear this is a home that has been lovingly cared for. Original Minton-style tiled flooring, stained glass detailing, exposed brickwork, decorative fireplaces, generous ceiling heights and sash-style windows all serve as reminders of the property's Victorian heritage, whilst sympathetic improvements have created a home perfectly suited to modern family life.

The true heart of the home lies to the rear.

Created through a substantial extension, the open-plan kitchen, dining and family space has been designed around the way people live today. Vaulted ceilings, skylight windows and French doors flood the room with natural light, creating a space that's equally suited to relaxed family evenings as it is to entertaining friends.

The kitchen has been beautifully appointed with quality cabinetry, stone worktops and a Rangemaster cooker, whilst a separate utility room and contemporary ground floor shower room provide the practical touches every busy household appreciates.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors, offering exceptional flexibility for growing families. The first floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms together with a beautifully finished family bathroom, whilst the converted second floor creates a generous fourth bedroom that would work equally well as a principal suite, guest accommodation or additional home office. In addition to this, a useful cellar provides excellent additional storage.

Outside, the private rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with patio seating areas, mature planting and a central lawn, creating a wonderful space to enjoy throughout the seasons. To the front, a block-paved tandem driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles; an increasingly rare and highly desirable feature within the Old Quarter.

Location is every bit as important as the home itself, and Heath Street remains one of Stourbridge's most sought-after addresses. Mary Stevens Park, Stourbridge town centre, independent cafés, restaurants and both bus and rail connections are all within easy walking distance, whilst highly regarded schools including Greenfield Primary School, Oldswinford Hospital School and Redhill School are conveniently close by. It's easy to understand why the Old Quarter continues to be one of the area's most desirable places to call home.

Homes like this rarely become available.
