If you are looking for a cottage with a little extra, then Hollybank on Lapworth Street, Lowsonford, could be it.

There is the main house itself – a delightful four-bedroom home.

But in the garden there is a detached annexe with living space and a bedroom on the first floor.

The village home has plenty of character with wood burning stoves and exposed beams.

Living space on the ground floor includes a sitting room with French doors to the back garden and a bay window with charming window seat. There’s an impressive fireplace with wood burning stove and wooden mantle over.

Leaded light doors open to the garden room/morning room with bi-folding glass doors opening onto the patio.

A kitchen is fitted with a range of contemporary Shaker-style units, oak work surface, splashback and flooring. It has a double bowl Belfast sink set in a granite work surface.

The kitchen leads to the utility area/snug which has access to the garden via a stable door. Upstairs there are four bedrooms. The master has access to an en suite bathroom with roll top bath.

The other bedrooms are served by a shower room with a cubicle that takes up the whole of one side.

In the annexe property there is a lounge, kitchen, dining room and store on the ground floor. Upstairs it has a double bedroom, shower room and eaves storage.

Hollybank Cottage is reached from a lane to the side of the property that leads onto a sweeping gravelled driveway with ample parking and turning space as well as covered parking for two cars. A brick wall with arched gateway gives access to the gardens and detached annexe. The front gardens have been landscaped and have lawn interspersed with well-stocked herbaceous beds planted with a wide range of mature trees and shrubs.

Secluded terraced gardens to the back are also landscaped and include a separate decked and paved seating area.

Lowsonford village is a thriving rural spot with a variety of properties and a picturesque canalside inn. It is ideal for canalside walks or for riding through the surrounding countryside.

Henley-in-Arden is about four miles away while Knowle, Dorridge and Hockley Heath are close at hand. The M40 junction is a short drive, giving access to the M1, M5 and M6. Birmingham International Airport and Railway Station are 30 minutes away.

An open house is being held to see this property on Saturday, September 5 from 12-2pm.
