## Description

REF: CS1106

Welcome to Horsfall Drive. Set in a prime position beside peaceful green space and a picturesque public park, this exquisite three-bedroom semi-detached home is a rare gem. Located at the front of this sought-after development, this home proudly showcases its premium design credentials and attention to detail—inside and out.

From the moment you arrive, there’s an undeniable sense of calm. A shared, block-paved drive leads to private in-and-out parking for two vehicles, and the home's tasteful façade hints at the quality within. Step through the front door and you're greeted by a generous entrance hall that sets the tone: light-filled, warm and immaculately presented.

To the left, a beautifully appointed breakfast kitchen invites sociable mornings and effortless everyday living, with sleek cabinetry and a suite of integrated appliances. Beyond, the spacious rear lounge—open to a potential dining space—offers views out to the private garden and is ideal for relaxing with family or entertaining guests. A guest cloakroom and handy understairs storage complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms provide versatile accommodation. The principal suite is a peaceful retreat and is complemented by a contemporary en-suite. Bedrooms two and three are equally inviting and share a modern family bathroom. All have been designed with both comfort and function in mind.

Outside, the garden is a tranquil landscaped sanctuary framed by timber fencing and two patios —ideal for morning coffees or summer evenings under the stars.

Location-wise, you're perfectly positioned. Excellent schools are nearby, daily essentials are within walking distance in Walmley village, and you're just a short drive from the buzz of Sutton Coldfield, Wylde Green, and Birmingham City Centre. Commuting is effortless, thanks to superb transport links from Walmley High Street.

This is a home that blends sophistication with everyday practicality—a place to live, grow and truly enjoy.
