Detached house for sale in Hollywood Lane, Hollywood B47

This handsome detached house constructed in 1937 is of unique architectural design, featured in architect journals of the period. There is a wealth of charm and character; many features were reclaimed from Fernwood Grange, Barnt Green a stately home built in the 1800’s. These features include Oak panelling and a beautiful black marble pillared fireplace. The house is distinguished by a stone sculpture of Don Quixote on the front elevation commissioned by the original owner and by the celebrated artist Oliver o’Connor Barrett.

The property sits back from the road behind two grass verges, a large gravel driveway which provides off-road parking for several vehicles and is complimented by the surrounding gardens.
