Knowle | 4 Bedrooms | £825,000

Starbold Crescent is excellently located within the village of Knowle being just a few minutes walk from the High Street and Arden School, yet set in a quiet cul de sac location. The accommodation offers four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, open plan living with a garden room, additional reception room and a separate WC and utility room.

The accommodation is immaculately presented having been meticulously cared for by the current owners over the last 30 years. As one enters there is an immaculate porch area, ideal for keeping shoes and coats, and to the hallway a WC.  The kitchen is exceptional and has been designed and fitted by Culina Balneo, with pale units and Silestone worktops over. The kitchen has a Siemens induction hob and ovens (oven and warming drawer and oven/microwave) plus two built-in fridge/freezers. There is ample space for a dining table with concertina shutter doors into the garden room. The utility is well appointed, also by Culina Balneo, having space for a built-in wine fridge, washing machine and tumble drier. The utility leads through to the store/garage. To the front of the property is the living room which has an electric fire set into a beautiful fireplace. There is also a downstairs WC.

 The landing on the first floor is spacious and provides access to the loft space (boarded with a ladder). There are four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, both have been fitted as shower rooms.

Externally the rear garden has access to the front on both sides. It is very well kept being mainly laid to lawn with mature shrub and flower borders, with a patio and space for garden furniture. There is a light coloured resin driveway with off road parking for two cars.

Location

Knowle is a large village approximately 1 mile from Junction 5 of the M42 motorway and some 3 miles from Solihull town centre. Village amenities are centred around a traditional high street, offering a high-end local butcher, luxury bakery, hairdressers, boutique dress shops for both men and women, a handful of bespoke wine, gin and ale bars, with new acclaimed eatery and bar ‘Cheals’. The Greswolde Hotel and Wilsons Arms offer an ongoing traditional presence, whilst local residents are able to satisfy all shopping needs not only from individual stores but also a small Tesco as well as picking up a Costa along the way. The picturesque sight of whites on the cricket pitch are often seen on a summer’s afternoon at the well-supported cricket and tennis club off Station Road. Knowle football club off Hampton Road and excellent rugby facility at The Old Silhillians ground appeal to all age groups and new members are most welcome.

To the end of the high street, Grade I Listed Knowle Parish Church is over 600 years old, still to this day promoting and maintaining the community ethos within the village. Birmingham NEC, International Airport and Railway Station are within about 5 miles and offer excellent network connections throughout the UK, with direct links to Birmingham city centre and services of approx. 1hr 10 mins to London Euston. Arden Academy invites pupils from age 11 to 18 and has become an aspirational focus for local junior schools. Whilst maintaining village characteristics, Knowle has maintained itself to be one of the most desirable locations for all generations, also proud to be home to two National Trust properties at Baddesley Clinton and Packwood House.
