4 bed terraced house for sale

Sandhills Green, Alvechurch, Birmingham, Worcestershire B48

A 130-year-old home with all its character intact. And a stone's throw from the countryside.

Tucked into a quiet spot on the border of Alvechurch and Barnt Green, this four-double-bedroom mid-terrace has the kind of character you simply cannot build new. Think original features, a proper kitchen diner at its heart, a log burner for the winter nights, and a rear garden with not one but two separate spaces to sit out in. Add a driveway with an EV charger and you have a home that works just as hard as it looks good.

We asked them what made them buy it...

"It was the character of the property, it's 130 years old, and the area. There are nice villages around here, and if you turn left from our house, you're in the countryside before you know it."

What about the house itself?

"We have raised both our kids here. Four good-sized bedrooms and the location has meant they've been in catchment for all the good schools in Bromsgrove. It's a very safe environment. We turned it into a kitchen diner and decorated the rest of the house, but we were keen to keep some of the old quirks, things like the original doors. The main thing we'll miss is the area. I honestly think Barnt Green is lovely and has everything you need. It can have a bit of a snooty reputation, but we've never seen that side of it."

Our agents say...

This is a home that has been lived in properly and loved properly, and it shows. The kitchen diner is the obvious heart of the house, but it's the little details, the original doors, the bay windows, the log burner, that give it real character you cannot fake. Upstairs, four genuine doubles give you room to grow, and the top-floor bedroom with its own en-suite is a real bonus. Outside, the multi-car driveway and EV charger take care of the practical side, while the garden, with its two separate patio areas, gives you space to entertain, relax, or just enjoy being five minutes from open countryside. Add in the schools, the village, and the easy commute via Alvechurch station and the M42/M5, and it is easy to see why this family has stayed so long. Fancy a look?
