5 bedroom cottage for sale

Nestled along the ever-desirable Foley Road West, this extended character cottage beautifully blends traditional charm with tasteful modern enhancements. From the moment you arrive, the home’s kerb appeal is evident — with a spacious pebbled driveway providing parking for up to five cars, all framed by its welcoming frontage and open porch leading to a solid wooden front door.
Stepping inside, you’re immediately greeted by a sense of warmth and character. The entrance hallway and first reception room set the tone for the rest of the property, showcasing traditional wood panelling, exposed oak beams, and an impressive brick-built fireplace. Currently used as a sitting area, this space would also make an ideal grand entrance hall or formal dining room. The hallway, kitchen, and main reception areas are all fitted with Karndean flooring, each space offering a slightly different yet complementary style.
To the left, the second reception room is arranged as a dining area, complete with a large front-facing window that floods the room with natural light. To the right of the hallway, the third reception room provides a cosy living space, featuring soft carpeting, oak panelling, and another traditional brick-built gas fireplace. With two generous front windows and an additional side window, this room enjoys a bright and airy feel while maintaining a homely atmosphere.
Continuing through the hallway, you’ll find the wraparound staircase to your left, and to your right, the fourth reception room — a versatile space accessed through elegant double glass doors. Here, the original stained wooden floor and stone-surround fireplace create an inviting ambience, while windows overlooking the rear garden add a tranquil touch. This space flows beautifully into the conservatory, a bright and open room with marble-tiled flooring, radiators for year-round use, and patio doors leading out to the rear garden. Generously sized, the conservatory is perfect for relaxing or entertaining guests.
Returning to the hallway, the kitchen sits straight ahead — truly the heart of the home. Well-equipped with a Rangemaster oven and gas hobs, integrated dishwasher, and integrated fridge-freezer, this space combines functionality with charm. A central breakfast bar offers the perfect spot for family gatherings, while a large window provides a picturesque view of the rear garden.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious utility room, complete with space for laundry appliances, a large pantry housing the boiler and water system, and access to a downstairs WC with a marble sink and vanity, low-level WC, and stainless-steel towel rail. The utility also provides an additional entrance to the rear garden.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with five double bedrooms, three of which feature en-suite bathrooms. The master bedroom is an exceptional space, retaining the home’s traditional character with oak beams and dual front-facing windows. It offers ample room for a king-size bed and dressing area, leading into a luxurious en-suite with a freestanding bath, walk-in rain shower, stylish vanity sink, and modern wall and floor tiling. Beyond the en-suite, there is a walk-in wardrobe with fitted storage throughout.
An internal door connects the master suite to bedroom five, currently used as a double bedroom but equally well-suited as a nursery or home office. Bedroom two, positioned at the rear, boasts a modern en-suite with dual shower trays, a rainfall shower, and contemporary tiling. Similarly, bedroom three features its own en-suite with a single shower tray, vanity sink, and WC. Bedroom four is another spacious double room, ideal for guests or family. Completing the first floor is the family bathroom, fitted with a bath, separate shower, vanity sink, and WC, all finished with floor-to-ceiling tiling and a stainless-steel heated radiator.
The rear garden offers both space and privacy, beginning with a large raised patio that steps down to a second patio area, ideal for outdoor dining or entertaining. Recently installed fencing encloses the garden securely, and double gates from the access way allow part of the lower patio to serve as an additional gated driveway, perfect for secure parking of larger vehicles or high-value cars. Beyond, the lawned garden provides a family-friendly area, perfect for children and summer gatherings. With side access connecting front and back, it’s a wonderful space for hosting and everyday enjoyment.This charming and expansive home offers a rare blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern practicality, all within one of Streetly’s most sought-after locations.
