Ivy Cottage, Handsworth Wood – Period Charm, Thoughtfully Transformed
Tucked away on a quiet, leafy layby in Handsworth Wood lies something truly special: Ivy Cottage. A detached 1930s home that’s been lovingly restored and extended to create an elegant family sanctuary — rich in character, yet effortlessly modern.
From the moment you step inside, it’s clear this isn’t your average five-bed.
Character you can feel. Space you can grow into.
Period features greet you at every turn — from intricate ceiling roses and artisan coving to a hand-crafted spindle staircase and herringbone oak flooring underfoot.
Yet the layout has been reimagined with modern family life in mind. You’ll find over 1,880 sq ft of stylish, usable space, including:
- A bright through lounge with bay window and French doors to the garden
- An impressive kitchen/diner with granite worktops and a traditional Rayburn AGA
- A remodelled utility room leading to a full-width conservatory
- Five bedrooms, including a luxurious master with terrace access and a converted loft with Juliet balconies
- Four WCs, including a stylish en suite and Victorian-inspired bathroom suite
Every inch has been curated with care — a true blend of timeless taste and modern touches.
A garden made for gatherings
Out back, you’ll discover a beautifully tiered cottage-style garden — low maintenance, yet high on charm. Mature planting, space to dine, and even a brick-built wood-fired pizza oven make this the ideal summer entertaining spot.
And there’s room to grow your own, relax in the sun, or just take in the peaceful surroundings.
Practicality meets privacy
To the front, you’ll find ample parking, including a driveway, garage, and additional layby spaces for guests. All nestled in a discreet location — close to parks, schools, transport links, and amenities, yet set apart from the noise.
This is a home you can settle into for years to come.
