An original black-and-white Tudor lodge in the heart of Moseley's conservation area — historic on the outside, stylish and modern within. Two king bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, a smart open-plan living space and a separate office ideal for remote working. Gated private parking beside your own front door, a fenced patio garden and a leafy communal park with gazebo. A short stroll to Moseley Village's cafés, shops and restaurants, and 12 minutes by train into central Birmingham.


THE SPACE

Tudor Lodge is a one-of-a-kind original Tudor building — all black-and-white timbered façade and leaded windows on the outside, warm and contemporary within. It sits in the conservation area of Moseley, one of Birmingham's smartest and most sought-after villages, long favoured by professionals, academics, artists and families.

Inside, high ceilings and period character meet modern comfort. The living room is a relaxed, stylish space with two large sofas, built-in mood lighting, a feature fireplace and a big TV with Netflix included — one of the sofas also converts to a comfortable double for a fifth and sixth guest. The open-plan kitchen and dining area is fully equipped with a breakfast bar and everything you need to cook and eat in, and there's a separate office that makes remote working genuinely easy.

Both bedrooms are doubles with king-size beds and their own ensuite bathrooms. The master suite is a peaceful retreat with a spacious ensuite featuring both a large walk-in shower and a bathtub, a TV, and generous wardrobe and drawer storage. The second king bedroom has its own private ensuite too, so two couples or a family share in comfort — with 2.5 bathrooms in total, there's never a queue.

OUTSIDE

The home has its own gated electronic entrance and private parking for two cars directly beside your own front door — arrive and unload with ease. There's a small private, fenced patio garden a few steps from the house with a table and chairs, perfect for a morning coffee or evening glass of wine, plus a larger communal park-style garden with a gazebo and seating, lovely for reading, a picnic or letting children play.

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD

Moseley is Birmingham's village with a bohemian streak, and a former winner of the Sunday Times "Best Place to Live in Britain." You're a few minutes' walk from Moseley Village — independent cafés, delis, restaurants and characterful pubs, an M&S Food Hall, a farmers' market and the famous Moseley Folk & Arts Festival. Green space is everywhere: the private Moseley Park and Pool, sprawling Cannon Hill Park, and Moseley Bog — the ancient woodland said to have inspired J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth.

You're also brilliantly connected. The new Moseley Village station puts you in central Birmingham in about 12 minutes, and you're close to the universities and teaching hospitals, Edgbaston cricket ground, Cadbury World at Bournville, the Botanical Gardens, and the Bullring. Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick Castle and the NEC are all an easy drive.


The whole house and its private garden are yours for your stay, with easy self check-in. Your host is contactable by message anytime and quick to respond, but otherwise you'll have complete privacy.

Self check-in via lockbox. Guests let themselves in through the large private front door using a key from the on-site lockbox — the code and step-by-step arrival instructions (including the gated entrance and where to park) are sent before arrival and are on the guest portal. Check-in from 4pm, check-out by 10am.
