4 bed detached house for sale

Hole Farm Mews, Hole Lane, Birmingham, West Midlands B31

A two-hundred-year-old dairy farm. A house built with its history in mind. This one has provenance in every floorboard.

Tucked away on a quiet, gated estate in Kings Norton, this beautifully presented and characterful detached house offers four generous double bedrooms, real character throughout, and the kind of privacy that's hard to find so close to the city. Set behind a sweeping gravel drive with secure double gates, it's a home with genuine roots and even more room to grow into.

We asked them what made them buy it...

"It was the location, really. This whole area used to be a dairy farm that supplied Cadbury's, and it's part of the land George Cadbury later used to create Bournville. There's a real sense of provenance here, and you can feel that history when you're in it."

What about the house itself?

"When the house was built on the site, real care was taken to reflect what was here before. There are floorboards and roof timbers that are two hundred years old, brought in and worked into the build, and every change we've made since has been done with those original features in mind, never against them. It's why the place still has so much character. And despite being close to everything, it's genuinely private. You're not overlooked, and it's a quiet estate. That's something we'll really miss."

Our agents say...

Houses with this kind of heritage and character don't come along often, and this one has been looked after properly. Inside, you've got four double bedrooms, including a bright, skylit main bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, plus a family bathroom and a handy ground floor shower room, ideal for busy family life or multi-generational living. The living room is a proper family space with garden access, and the kitchen and separate dining room give you plenty of room to cook, eat, and entertain without getting under each other's feet.

Outside, the low maintenance garden opens onto block paving, perfect for garden furniture and summer get-togethers, with a rear gate through to a shared grass lawn, ideal for the kids to let off steam. The gated gravel drive gives you parking for several vehicles and real peace of mind. There's a modest six-monthly service charge of £502 for the upkeep of the shared grounds.

And the location works just as hard as the house does. Kings Norton train station is within walking distance, with easy routes into Birmingham New Street via Bournville and Selly Oak, or out towards Barnt Green, Redditch and Bromsgrove. The M42 is close by for commuters, Cotteridge covers your everyday shopping, and families are well served by Kings Norton Girls' and Boys' Secondary Schools.

This is a home with genuine history and genuine character, in a spot that quietly ticks every box. Get in touch and we'll show you around.
