REF: JC0739 - A hidden one-off on one of Walsall’s most unique roads

Tucked away off Lodge Road on a quiet private drive shared with just 11 other homes, this individually designed four-bedroom detached is anything but average. With over 1,600sqft of space, a flexible annexe, and a garden that genuinely stops you in your tracks, this is a rare chance to own something truly special.

From the moment you turn into this exclusive little pocket of WS5, you get a sense that you’ve found something different. Every home here is one-of-a-kind, and the peaceful setting is a real draw. Pull onto the driveway and there's space for four cars, plus a beautifully kept front lawn, the perfect welcome home.

Step through the porch and into a bright, welcoming hallway, lit by a large window and giving a great first impression. To one side, there’s a downstairs W.C., and to the other, a generous lounge that stretches the full length of the house, with a bay window at the front and patio doors opening onto the garden. At the rear, the kitchen/diner offers loads of potential to open out, extend, and turn into a dream social space. Think bifolds, lantern roof light, and a layout that brings the outside in. There's also a handy utility tucked around the corner.

But what really sets this place apart is the annexe. With its own front door and access from inside the house, it’s a brilliant setup for multi-generational living, older kids, working from home or just a bit of separation. There’s a garage at the front that could easily become a gym or reception room, then a snug or office space, and finally a bright lounge/additional reception with views over the garden and patio doors to the side. Head upstairs via a private staircase and there’s a fourth bedroom with a cleverly concealed en-suite hidden behind wardrobe doors.

Upstairs in the main part of the house are three more bedrooms (all doubles) including a main bedroom with its own tucked-away en-suite, and a spacious family shower room.

Out back, the garden is nothing short of stunning. It’s private, full of colour, and beautifully maintained, with separate areas for relaxing, planting, entertaining or just soaking up the sun. There’s a patio, a lawn, a raised decking area, and a garden room up top that gives you that extra bit of magic.

Yes, it needs some modernisation, but with this layout, setting, and potential, you're not just buying a home. You’re buying a one-off with the chance to make it completely your own.

Location

Living on Lodge Road offers something a little different. Set along a private drive shared with just eleven other homes, there’s a real sense of peace and individuality here. Each property is unique, giving the road a calm, established character that you simply don’t find on most modern developments.

Despite the tucked-away feel, everything you need is close at hand. Walsall town centre is just a short drive away, offering supermarkets, shops, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities. For bigger shopping trips or nights out, Birmingham city centre is around 25 minutes by car or train, while Sutton Coldfield is also within easy reach. For families, the area offers several well-regarded schools, including Park Hall Infant and Junior just over a mile away, and the highly sought-after Queen Mary’s Grammar Schools not far beyond that. There are also plenty of early years options and local academies, making it a strong spot for growing families.

Green space is another bonus. You’re just minutes from Walsall Arboretum, a huge leafy park with lakes, play areas and seasonal events. Gillity Village Park and Tamebridge Parkway offer quieter walking spots, while those looking for weekend adventures have Cannock Chase just up the road, perfect for woodland walks, bike rides or a bit of fresh air.

Road links from here are spot on. The M6 and M5 are easily accessible, making commuting into Birmingham, Wolverhampton or beyond straightforward, and there’s a range of nearby train stations if you prefer to let someone else do the driving.

This part of WS5 offers a rare mix of peace, privacy and practicality. A place where you can enjoy the quiet of a private setting without feeling disconnected from daily life. Whether you’re raising a family, downsizing, or simply looking for a home with room to breathe, Lodge Road strikes that balance beautifully.
