An Extended Traditional Semi Detached House Occupying an Exceptional Plot With Extensive Gardens and Ample Space for Extension (Subject to Necessary Planning Permission)
Blackford Road is a conveniently situated road running from Stratford Road to Dog Kennel Lane. There is excellent schooling within the location at Woodlands Infant School, Shirley Heath Junior School and Alderbrook Secondary School, in whose catchment areas we are advised the property falls, subject to confirmation from the Education Authority. Also nearby on the Stratford Road is Our Lady of the Wayside Junior and Infant School and in Whitefields Road is St Peters Roman Catholic Senior School and Sixth Form College.
The main shopping centre in Shirley offers a wide choice of Supermarkets, convenience and speciality stores, restaurants and hostelries and there are frequent bus services running along the A34 into Birmingham City Centre and Solihull Town Centre – boasting the vibrant and modern Touchwood Centre offering shopping facilities and evening entertainments. Shirley has its own train station in Haslucks Green Road, providing a train service to Birmingham City Centre and Stratford upon Avon.
Off the main Stratford Road leads Marshall Lake Road boasting the Retail Park and further down the A34 one will find the Cranmore, Widney, Monkspath and Solihull Business Parks, and on to Blythe Valley Business Park which can be found at the junction with the M42 motorway, providing access to the Midland Motorway Network. A short drive down the M42 to Junction Six, you will find Birmingham International Airport and Rail Station.
An ideal location therefore for this extended semi detached house which has been in the same ownership since it's original construction in 1950. The property occupies and extensive plot which extends beyond 200' and has been set out lovingly by the owners of 75 years - the plot offers a rare opportunity for a keen gardener to continue to establish and develop the garden. The house itself does require some updating but offers the chance to further extend the property (subject to necessary planning permissions) and create a space that works for the new owners. This really is a rare opportunity to purchase a long term family home with such a beautiful established garden and as such viewing really is essential.
