Occupying one of Shenstone's most prestigious residential addresses, The Chestnuts enjoys a private position on the corner of Hollyhill Road and Footherley Road, set behind electric gates within beautifully established grounds.
Shenstone remains one of Staffordshire's most sought-after villages, combining a thriving community with excellent commuter links. The village offers an excellent range of everyday amenities including an award-winning butcher, convenience stores, cafés, restaurants, traditional public houses and highly regarded primary schooling. Shenstone railway station provides direct services into Birmingham New Street in approximately 30 minutes, whilst nearby Lichfield Trent Valley offers direct services to London Euston. Excellent road links via the A38, M6 Toll and M42 place Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield and the wider Midlands within easy reach.
The Chestnuts is an exceptional detached family residence extending to almost 5,000 sq.ft., beautifully combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary architecture to create a home of remarkable style, comfort and versatility.
Originally remodelled and comprehensively refurbished to an exacting standard, the property has been thoughtfully reimagined to suit modern family living, whilst retaining warmth, character and individuality throughout. Every aspect has been carefully considered, from the striking architectural staircase and bespoke glazing to the quality of the joinery, lighting and interior finishes. Approached through timber gates, the property immediately conveys a sense of privacy and exclusivity. A generous driveway provides extensive parking and leads to four garages, whilst mature trees and established planting create an attractive setting.
The welcoming reception hall provides an impressive introduction to the house. A bespoke floating oak staircase with glass balustrades forms a stunning architectural centrepiece, complemented by contemporary Crittall-style glazed doors which introduce the principal living accommodation. At the heart of the home lies a magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and family room designed for everyday living as well as entertaining on a grand scale. The beautifully appointed kitchen centres around a substantial island with quartz worktops and incorporates an excellent range of bespoke cabinetry together with premium integrated appliances including Miele ovens, induction hob, dishwasher and an AGA R7 cooker. Oak flooring flows seamlessly throughout, whilst extensive glazing creates an abundance of natural light and provides an excellent connection with the gardens beyond.
Adjoining the kitchen is an impressive family room and lounge area with contemporary wood burning stove, creating a relaxed and sociable environment throughout the seasons. A separate formal drawing room provides a contrasting atmosphere, centred around an impressive brick inglenook fireplace with exposed timber mantle and inset log burner. Wide bi-folding doors in the family and lounge room and drawing room, open directly onto the terrace, allowing both rooms to extend effortlessly into the garden during the summer months. Further ground floor accommodation includes a practical boot room and utility room, guest cloakroom and a number of flexible reception areas capable of accommodating home working, children's play space or additional informal sitting rooms depending upon individual requirements.
The first floor provides five generous double bedrooms, one of which is currently used as an office, each thoughtfully arranged to maximise privacy and outlook. The principal suite enjoys attractive views across the gardens together with a Juliet balcony, extensive fitted wardrobes and a luxurious ensuite shower room. A second guest suite also benefits from its own dressing area and ensuite facilities, creating an ideal arrangement for extended family or visiting guests. Two further bedrooms enjoy ensuite shower rooms, whilst the remaining bedroom is served by an elegant family bathroom, all finished to an equally high specification.
The gardens are a particular feature of The Chestnuts, extending around the property to create a wonderfully private setting. Large expanses of lawn are framed by mature trees, established planting and colourful borders, providing year-round interest whilst offering ample space for children to play and families to entertain. A generous paved terrace spans the rear of the house, perfectly positioned for outdoor dining and summer gatherings, with direct access from the principal reception rooms.
A detached oak-framed studio occupies a peaceful position within the grounds and offers exceptional versatility as a home office, gym, creative studio or consulting room.
The extensive frontage, gated access and four garages provide outstanding practicality, whilst the generous plot offers further potential for additional outbuildings or future adaptation, subject to any necessary consents.
