The Story
A village retreat with open views
New Road is an architect-designed, newly-built family home in the village of Hollywood, set discreetly among mature hedging with uninterrupted views across the neighbouring fields. Two floors, close to 3,000 sq ft, five bedrooms.
Built to uncompromising standards and offered Freehold, the home leans on an air source heat pump and underfloor heating throughout the ground floor — energy-conscious without compromise on comfort. The setting is the rarest of the property's qualities: a peaceful village position with the M42 and M40 a short drive away, and Birmingham and Solihull both within easy reach.
The Home
A clean modern envelope, generously proportioned
Entrance is through a wide hall that opens directly to the heart of the home — a single, generous room of kitchen, dining and family living, anchored by a stunning central island and framed by two sets of bi-fold doors to the patio.
Off the hall: a separate living room to the front, a family room with its own aspect, and a study sized for a working home office. A cloakroom, utility, and the door through to the integral garage complete the ground floor.
Upstairs: five double bedrooms across the first floor, three with their own en-suites. The principal suite carries a generous walk-in wardrobe and an elegant en-suite. A family bathroom serves the remaining two bedrooms.
The Bedrooms
Five doubles, three en-suite
The principal suite (15 7" × 14 3") sits at the rear of the first floor with a generous walk-in wardrobe and a private en-suite. Bedrooms 2 and 3 each carry their own en-suites; bedrooms 4 and 5 share a beautifully finished family bathroom across the landing.
Across the upper floor the rooms read as a single restful storey — neutral, light, and ready for the family that moves in next. Bedroom 1 opens to a Juliet balcony over the garden.
The Garden
A landscaped patio, an open outlook
The contemporary panelled patio sits immediately off the kitchen-dining-living hub, sized for a table of ten and framed for both summer suppers and the every-day. Two sets of bi-fold doors open through to it, so the threshold between inside and out is as wide as the plan allows.
Beyond the patio the landscaping steps gently down through lawn and planted borders to a low post-and-rail boundary, with uninterrupted views across the neighbouring fields. The plot finishes without a near neighbour to the rear.
The Area
Hollywood, the M42, the Midlands
Hollywood is a leafy Worcestershire village just south of Birmingham, within Bromsgrove District. The M42 and M40 are within easy reach for commutes to Solihull, Birmingham, the NEC and the wider Midlands; Birmingham International Airport is a short drive.
Day-to-day amenities sit nearby in Wythall and Shirley, with larger centres at Solihull town and Birmingham city for shopping, restaurants and cultural life. Schools in the area carry strong reputations, and the local lanes give plenty of walking on the doorstep.
