Situation

The Moorlands is situated on the highly sought after Four Oaks Estate; an exclusive residential area lying along the northern and eastern borders of Sutton Park. The Four Oaks Estate is originally part of a large forestry to encompass the adjoining Sutton Park. The Estate was initially laid out in the 1890s when the Four Oaks Park was bought by the Marquis of Clanricarde. The area was then developed as an exclusive private residential Estate and covenants encumbered on the residences have ensured that the Four Oaks Estate has preserved itself as a most attractive and highly desirable place to live.

Nearby Sutton Park, which is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest, offers a great scope for walking, golf and a variety of other outdoor pursuits. Four Oaks tennis club is close by.

Sutton Coldfield town centre provides an excellent choice of shops, restaurants and schooling including Bishop Walsh Catholic School, Bishop Veseys Grammar School, Sutton Coldfield Grammar School for Girls and Highclare School. Primary schools nearby include The Shrubbery School, Penns Primary School, Walmley Primary School, Wylde Green Primary School and Holly Cross Catholic Primary School. Purchasers are advised to check with the Council for up-to-date information on school catchment areas.

The rear garden unfolds in three enchanting levels: The first level offers a granite-paved patio, ideal for alfresco dining and summer lounging, complemented by a lawn, mature hedging, and tall, elegant trees that provide both beauty and privacy.

Descend via charming stone steps to the second level, where raised vegetable and herb planters, constructed from repurposed railway sleepers, await the avid gardener. A natural wood-chip covering creates a soft, sustainable groundscape, while a slate-paved path continues downward.

The third level reveals a hidden gem in way of an expansive lawn laid to high quality artificial grass, edged by lush flowering borders, and a stone-paved patio area designed for memorable evening soirees and outdoor dining under the stars.
