Period soul. Modern standards. The balance most renovations miss.

A focus on the areas that transform everyday life - and preserve the details that give the house its soul.

That is exactly what Jockey Road exemplifies.

Behind its traditional frontage is an approximately 850 sq ft, turn-of-the-century home with soaring ceilings, character flooring, bay-fronted proportions and two fireplace features. Alongside them now sit a sleek contemporary kitchen, a completely refitted bathroom, driveway parking and a long south-facing garden.

At this pricepoint, this is a home that gives first-time buyers much more than an initial step onto the ladder.

850 sq ft. Double bedrooms. Not A single token space.

Generous proportions are one of this home’s defining strengths.

Both bedrooms are proper doubles, with the principal bedroom offering particularly impressive dimensions and useful built-in storage. There is space for additional wardrobes, a dressing area or a home-working zone without the room feeling compromised.

Downstairs, the substantial bay-fronted dining room provides flexibility as a formal dining space, second reception room or sophisticated home office.

The separate lounge forms the heart of the house, with generous proportions, a retained fireplace feature and a natural connection to the garden through French doors at the rear.

A long entrance hallway, high ceilings and well-proportioned rooms create a sense of space that runs throughout the home.

The kitchen is sleek. The bathroom is boutique. The big-ticket work is done.

The areas that demand the greatest investment have already been comprehensively upgraded by the current owners.

The contemporary galley kitchen incorporates an excellent collection of integrated neff appliances, including an oven, microwave and induction hob. A sliding waste drawer, generous cabinetry and two large windows make the room practical, polished and naturally bright.

Upstairs, the recently refurbished bathroom delivers one of the home’s most impressive finishes. A large walk-in shower, floating vanity unit and illuminated demisting mirror create a crisp, calming space that feels considered down to the final detail.

Additional ground-floor storage and a separate downstairs WC make the layout even more functional.

These are not superficial changes. They are the expensive, disruptive improvements that the next owner will not need to add to their initial moving budget.

Character preserved - not recreated.

The house still feels unmistakably like a period home.

Traditional flooring begins within the entrance lobby and continues into the generous hallway, while high ceilings immediately enhance the sense of scale.

The front reception room combines its broad bay window with a large fireplace feature and carefully chosen decorative detailing. A second fireplace brings another natural focal point to the lounge.

These features give the property its warmth, identity and soul - and importantly, they have not been stripped away in the process of bringing everything else up to date.

South-facing, generous and made for summer.

The rear garden offers considerably more than a small courtyard or token patch of lawn.

French doors open onto a substantial paved patio, creating a natural outdoor extension of the living space and an excellent setting for dining, entertaining or relaxing in the sun.

Beyond it, the garden continues through a long lawn with a desirable southerly orientation. A brick-built outbuilding provides garden storage, while shared side access allows both this property and its neighbour to reach their respective gardens.

The depth of the plot may also offer scope for a future rear extension, subject to the necessary planning permission and building regulations, without sacrificing all of the remaining outdoor space.

A private driveway - the feature most period terraces cannot offer.

Traditional terraced homes do not always make modern life easy when it comes to parking.

This one does.

A private driveway to the front provides off-road parking, a comparatively unusual and valuable advantage for a character home of this type.

Boldmere outside. Sutton park beyond. Birmingham within easy reach.

The property is positioned within easy reach of the independent shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs and everyday amenities that give Boldmere its strong neighbourhood identity.

Tesco Extra, M&S Foodhall, Aldi and Lidl are all close by in New Oscott, while Boldmere Infant School and Nursery and Boldmere Junior School are approximately half a mile away, subject to individual admissions and catchment arrangements.

Boldmere Gate into Sutton Park is within approximately a mile of the house. From there, some 2,400 acres of lakes, woodland, heathland, wetlands and open space become part of everyday life.

For commuters, Wylde Green railway station is approximately one mile away, with direct services reaching Birmingham New Street in as little as around 16 minutes. Sutton Coldfield town centre and its wider selection of shopping, dining and leisure facilities are also readily accessible.

A first home that does not feel like A starter home.

The current owners have called this home since 2017, modernising the right areas while protecting the features that made them choose it in the first place.

The result is a home with character but without the immediate renovation list. Space without wasted rooms. A south-facing garden, private parking and one of Sutton Coldfield’s most popular neighbourhoods within easy reach.

For first-time buyers, couples or a small family, it is the kind of first home that could continue working for far longer than expected.
