5 bed detached house for sale

St. Johns Wood, Rednal B45

Occupying a wonderfully private position within the sought-after St. Johns Wood development in Rednal, this substantial five-bedroom detached family home offers an impressive combination of space, versatility and a beautifully established garden setting. With generous reception rooms, a spacious kitchen/diner, conservatory, principal bedroom with en-suite, double garage and a separate garden room/bar, the home has been designed around modern family life while retaining plenty of flexibility for entertaining, home working or multi-generational living. Set close to the open landscapes of Lickey Hills Country Park while remaining well connected to Longbridge and Birmingham, this is a home particularly well suited to growing families looking for space both inside and out.

Upon arrival, the character and scale of the property are immediately apparent. The traditional red-brick exterior, pitched rooflines and covered entrance create an attractive first impression, while a generous driveway provides off-road parking and access to the integral double garage. Mature planting surrounds the property, helping to give the house a secluded feel within its residential setting.

Upon entering, the accommodation opens into a welcoming hallway from which the principal ground-floor rooms can be reached. The layout has a natural sense of flow, with substantial living spaces providing flexibility for everyday family life as well as larger gatherings.

The lounge is a particularly impressive reception room, extending across a generous footprint and benefitting from a broad bay window which brings plenty of natural light into the space. Timber flooring adds warmth, while a contemporary feature fireplace forms a stylish focal point. With direct access towards the rear garden, the room feels equally suited to relaxed evenings at home or entertaining family and friends.

A separate family room provides another substantial reception space. Its proportions allow it to work comfortably as an additional sitting room, children's room or more informal family area, giving households the valuable option of having separate spaces for different parts of daily life. For larger or multi-generational families in particular, this degree of flexibility is a real advantage.

The heart of the home is the kitchen/diner, which offers a generous and practical setting for everyday family life. A comprehensive range of cabinetry is complemented by extensive work surfaces, a central preparation area and ample space for cooking and dining. You will find integrated fridge, oven, dishwasher and range cooker. The kitchen connects naturally with the surrounding reception spaces, allowing family life to flow easily from one room to another.

Leading from the kitchen/dining area is the conservatory, a bright additional living space enjoying extensive glazing and views across the garden. This room creates an appealing transition between the house and outside, with doors opening directly onto the garden. It would make a lovely year-round sitting or dining space, particularly for those who enjoy entertaining or simply having somewhere peaceful to sit overlooking the greenery.

A ground-floor WC completes the principal living accommodation, while internal access to the double garage adds further day-to-day practicality.

The first floor continues the generous proportions found throughout the home, with five bedrooms arranged around the landing.

The principal bedroom is a particularly spacious retreat with excellent built-in storage and its own en-suite shower room, creating a private space away from the main family accommodation. The remaining four bedrooms are all well-proportioned, giving the house genuine flexibility for larger families. Depending on individual needs, one of the bedrooms could equally work as a dedicated home office, dressing room or guest bedroom without compromising the overall sleeping accommodation.

Serving the additional bedrooms is the main family bathroom, fitted with both a bath and separate shower. Its generous proportions make it particularly practical for a busy household.

Externally, the garden is one of the home's standout features. The rear garden offers a substantial area of lawn surrounded by mature trees, hedging and established planting, creating an attractive and private backdrop. The plot provides plenty of room for children to enjoy the outdoors, for summer entertaining or simply for those who value having meaningful garden space around their home.

A paved terrace immediately to the rear of the property creates an ideal area for outdoor dining, while pathways continue through the garden towards a separate garden room. Fitted with wide opening doors onto the garden, this versatile detached space offers considerable potential as a home office, studio, games room, entertaining space or bar. For anyone running a business from home or looking for separation between work and family life, it adds another particularly useful dimension to the property.

The scale of both the house and grounds makes this an excellent long-term family home. Families with children will appreciate the combination of five bedrooms, multiple reception spaces and a sizeable private garden, while those working from home or requiring occasional guest accommodation have numerous options for adapting the layout to suit their lifestyle.

One of the area's greatest attractions is Lickey Hills Country Park, which lies close to the property and extends across approximately 524 acres of woodland, heathland and open grassland.

Families are also well served by local schooling, with Rednal Hill Infant School, Rednal Hill Junior School and St James Catholic Primary School all located within the wider Rednal area.
