12 The Customs House is an exceptionally impressive apartment with over 2200sqft of accommodation, which has been immaculately maintained by the current owners. There are a total of just six owner-occupied apartments to the building, inviting an air of exclusivity and close community, enjoying beautiful views of the courtyard water feature, canal and surrounding countryside.
The apartment is set over two floors. You are welcomed by a large entrance hallway with useful guest cloakroom and two storage cupboards. The timeless Karndean flooring continues from the hallway through double doors into the impressive living/kitchen/dining area. There is an abundance of natural light and high ceilings throughout. The open plan kitchen has a range of modern units offering a vast amount of storage and integrated appliances. There is a large pantry/wine store and a sliding door provides access to a separate utility room. The breakfast bar creates a option for casual dining in addition to ample space for a larger, more formal dining table. To this floor, there are two double bedrooms and a jack and jill bathroom. These are in a separate ‘wing’, creating a clear divide between living and sleeping accommodation.
To the top floor of the apartment is the principal bedroom suite with a large ensuite shower room and full-length built in wardrobes. From here there is also access to the wrap-around terrace. There is an additional living room which could easily be used as a fourth bedroom if required. This too has access to the wrap around terrace.
Externally, the private terrace and balcony provide ample space for a table and chairs to enjoy in the warmer months overlooking the waterside feature, canal and beyond. There is a hottub and barbeque already in situ for you to enjoy. The Customs House is conveniently situated within walking distance of village amenities yet being accessible to country walks on the doorstep.
Reflection from the owners:
“It is with significant regret that we are putting our wonderful apartment on the market, prompted by us re-locating overseas. It has been a wonderful home, offering space to breathe, beautiful views and the highest level of comfort and security. Some of our most treasured moments have been with friends on our terrace, enjoying the sun, or sitting on the balcony off the main living area with our morning coffee, reading the newspapers. It is quiet, yet so close to amazing restaurants and other offerings in Birmingham. We are going to miss it greatly….”
