The Moot House - The Green, Aldridge, WS9 - Exceptional Georgian Residence

Welcome to The Moot House; a truly authentic eight/nine bedroom Georgian residence within the desirable village of Aldridge, in parts advised to date back to the 1650's and serving as an exceptional family home for two and a half decades. 

Occupying a prominent position in central Aldridge, within a conservation area beside St Mary’s Church, overlooking the green space of The Croft. Aldridge offers a variety of amenities, including shops, cafes, banks, a library, and restaurants, with nearby Walsall, Sutton Coldfield, and Birmingham providing extensive retail, dining, and cultural attractions. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy local cricket, rugby, football, sailing, and hockey clubs, as well as several golf courses, including the acclaimed Druids Heath. For outdoor recreation, The Croft and nearby nationally-recognised Sutton Park offer excellent green spaces. The area is well-served by highly regarded schools, including St Mary’s the Mount, Cooper and Jordan, and several top-performing grammar schools such as Bishop Vesey, Sutton Coldfield Girls and Queen Mary’s.

The property enjoys excellent transport links, with the M6 nearby, offering swift access to Birmingham, the M5, and the wider West Midlands. Birmingham New Street Station and Lichfield Trent Valley station both provide direct trains to London Euston in as little as one hour and 13 minutes. For international travel, both Birmingham International Airport (19 miles) and East Midlands Airport (36 miles) are conveniently accessible.

Approached via secure, vehicular wrought iron electric gates, The Moot House is a stunning Grade II listed residence nestled within mature, tree-lined grounds. The property includes generous garaging, a range of outbuildings, and beautifully landscaped gardens to both the front and rear. Its impressive Georgian façade, paired with a stately Portico entrance, sets the tone for the spacious reception rooms inside, which are rich in period charm, featuring sash windows with shutters, decorative cornicing, and open fireplaces.

The heart of the home is a characterful farmhouse-style kitchen, fitted with oak-fronted cabinetry, a gas-fired AGA, integrated Bosch dishwasher, an original inglenook fireplace with a circular bread oven, and traditional tiled flooring. A practical utility room sits alongside, offering additional storage, a range cooker, a walk-in pantry, and access to the garden. The sitting room, with its cosy open fireplace, steps up to a delightful garden room with timber ceilings, built-in shelving, and French doors leading out to the terrace. A private office with an adjoining storage room opens directly to the serene Hydrangea garden.

The first floor features four spacious double bedrooms, including the principal suite which boasts decorative cornicing, a ceiling rose, panelled walls, and picturesque views over The Croft. This suite also includes a luxurious en suite bathroom and a separate dressing room with hardwood flooring and built-in wardrobes.

A staircase leads to the second floor, where there are three additional double bedrooms. One benefits from an en suite bathroom and sauna, while another—currently used as a games room—features a wood-burning stove, built-in desks, and storage.

Two substantial, boarded and insulated loft rooms remain hidden as 'secret rooms' but offer excellent potential to be opened up and incorporated into the main living space.

The Moot House also includes extensive cellarage with multiple rooms and historic priest holes, adding further character and versatility.

The property is set behind a charming walled front garden, featuring landscaped lawns and richly planted shrub borders. Ample driveway parking is available, along with two garages. An adjoining outbuilding—currently used as a two-room workshop with two additional rooms above—offers excellent potential for conversion into a home office or annexe, subject to the necessary permissions. A gardener’s WC is located on the ground floor. Additional outbuildings include a brick-built garden store and a potting shed.

To the rear, the main garden offers complete privacy and is predominantly laid to lawn, framed by mature trees, including a striking silver birch. This beautifully kept space also features a treehouse, chicken run, picnic area, and a charming bluebell wood. A generous terrace provides an ideal setting for alfresco dining and summer entertaining.

Needless to say, a viewing is nothing short of imperative for properties such as this. We must advise booking in at your earliest convenience.
