Description
654 & 656 Kenilworth Road represent a rare opportunity to acquire two substantial detached freehold properties set on a generous combined plot
in the heart of Balsall Common, a highly sought-after commuter village in the West Midlands.

ideal for a range of future uses.

A detached residence with traditional architecture and character appeal, Fernhill House offers spacious accommodation across two floors. Internally, the layout includes multiple flexible-use rooms, a fitted kitchen, cloakroom facilities, and direct access to the rear garden.

This detached property has been extended and configured to support its former nursery use, featuring a large open-plan space, several classrooms/offices, a fitted kitchen, WC facilities, and multiple access points to outdoor play areas.

654–656 Kenilworth Road is ideally situated in the heart of Balsall Common, one of the most desirable and well-connected villages in the West Midlands. This premium location combines strong transport connectivity with the charm of greenbelt living, making it highly attractive for both residential and commercial ventures.
