Chimneys Brake Lane, Hagley
Chimneys, Brake Lane, Hagley, DY8 2XP A home of exceptional quality and specification occupying an exclusive location with rural views to front and rear. Built in 1935 and constructed from cavity walls and hand made bricks. The distinctive Chimneys are a particular feature. In recent years the property has undergone an extensive programme of improvement and refurbishment which has included stripping and reinstating the main roof, together with a substantial extension, essentially comprising a four car garage and a first floor games room. This part of the property offers flexibility as it could be used as an annexe for an extended family with its own entrance, the existing utility room could become a kitchen and the games room split up to form additional accommodation, a master bedroom suite, additional bedrooms or home office perhaps. The delightful gardens have a Southerly aspect to the rear and extend to approximately 1.5 acres with electrically gated driveway approach with rhododendrons. This secluded location offers good access to junctions three and four of the M5 motorway, convenient for commuting to Birmingham and the Conurbation along with rail access from Hagley station. It is within walking distance of Hagley village where there is a good range of shopping facilities and highly regarded schooling. The beautifully presented accommodation offers lovely views to all aspects. The windows themselves have been renewed with double glazing but in keeping with the original character of the house. The canopy porch and front door give access to a spacious reception hall with Oak turned spindle staircase, fireplace and with ample space for a decorated tree at Christmas. 2
