The ‘20s were roaring to a close when this substantial semi in Kingscote Road, Edgbaston, was built back in 1928. Since then the property has been sympathetically upgraded, but it still has period appeal.

Entry is via a hallway with understairs storage while a long sitting room has a bay window to the front and glazed doors to the back. The room has a natural stone open fireplace and hearth.

The breakfast/kitchen has cream fronted units and acrylic work surfaces. Appliances include a double oven, four-ring gas hob and Smeg integrated dishwasher. Glazed doors open from the kitchen into the dining/garden room.

More glazed doors lead out to the garden. There is also a downstairs utility/shower room. On the first floor there are three bedrooms, and a house bathroom while outside there is a garage and two garden sheds.
