About this apartment rental
About the property
Libbard House is an attractive **Georgian-period property dating from around 1800**, which has been thoughtfully divided into four self-contained apartments. This spacious and characterful **Grade II Listed apartment is arranged over two floors** and is situated on the north side of Solihull town centre.
The property enjoys a particularly appealing setting, combining the convenience of being close to Solihull with the peaceful atmosphere of a **semi-rural location**. The surrounding area has a distinctive historic character, with several attractive Georgian and former farm-style properties nearby.
Guests can enjoy the **well-maintained communal gardens and grounds**, providing a pleasant outdoor space and a peaceful setting away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre.
For those who enjoy walking, **Libbard's Way**, located on the next street, provides a lovely route through the surrounding area. Despite the property's peaceful setting, Solihull town centre is only around a **15-minute walk away**, where you will find a wide selection of shops, restaurants, cafés, bars and leisure facilities, including Touchwood shopping centre.
The apartment also benefits from excellent transport connections. **Birmingham International Airport and the NEC are only a short journey away**, making the property particularly convenient for visitors attending exhibitions, events or travelling by air.
Regular **X12 bus services** operate from Solihull town centre, providing convenient connections towards Birmingham and the surrounding area. **Widney Manor railway station** is also close by, offering direct services towards Birmingham and Stratford-upon-Avon.
### The apartment
This attractive **one-bedroom, two-storey apartment** combines the character of a historic Georgian building with the comfort and convenience expected from modern accommodation.
The spacious lounge is particularly impressive, retaining many of the original features you would expect from a property of this period. These include **ornate Georgian cornicing, exposed wooden beams, high ceilings, large sash-and-case windows and an attractive open feature fireplace**.
The lounge provides a comfortable and relaxing space in which to unwind after exploring Solihull and the surrounding area.
The apartment has a well-equipped kitchen with a **washing machine and dishwasher**, making it suitable for both short and longer stays. The property also benefits from **Wi-Fi/internet access and two Smart TVs**, providing entertainment and connectivity throughout your stay.
The bedroom and en-suite bathroom are situated on the **second floor**, providing a private and comfortable sleeping area away from the main living accommodation.
A further **WC/washroom is located on the first floor**, conveniently positioned near the lounge.
The property benefits from a **modern gas combination boiler**, providing efficient central heating and hot water throughout the apartment.
Parking
The apartment benefits from **private off-road parking**, providing guests with the convenience of having a dedicated place to park during their stay.
### Location
One of the property's greatest advantages is its combination of **peaceful surroundings and convenient access to Solihull town centre**. You can enjoy the character and tranquillity of this historic setting while still being within easy reach of shops, restaurants, transport links and local attractions.
The location also makes an excellent base for exploring the wider West Midlands and Warwickshire. Birmingham city centre is easily accessible by road and rail, while Stratford-upon-Avon and the surrounding Warwickshire countryside are also within convenient reach.
For business travellers, the proximity to **Birmingham NEC, Birmingham International Airport and major transport links** makes Libbard House particularly practical.
For leisure guests, the surrounding area offers historic villages, countryside walks, parks, restaurants, shopping and attractions, while the apartment itself provides a comfortable and relaxing place to return to.
### A unique place to stay

10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2023
We really liked this apartment in a lovely old house. The house itself is elegant and well looked after. The apartment is adequately equiped with spacious rooms and lots of seating and storage. The kitchen includes all the essentials. There is very little noise from the other apartments. The communal areas are clean and cared for. I was born and spent my childhood in Birmingham and this did not feel anything like the areas close to the centre. It is leafy and pleasant. The house is in an estate which has built up around what seems to be an old hamlet, so there is a mix of quaint old buildings and very nice newer ones. The roads are not that busy. There is a park, a couple of good pubs and a small shopping area close by. It took a bit of research to find them and a bit more information about things like this would mean you could get your stay off to a flying start. It took me over a day to discover them. Thankyou to our hosts for a pleasant and enjoyable stay!
