When the present owners were looking for a new home, 27 years ago, they were primarily searching for property with land for their horses. They were thrilled to find Brookfield which had land, and a spacious, attractive bungalow in a delightful semi rural setting. They have enjoyed a relaxed and peaceful lifestyle in the house. Over the years the family have made numerous improvements to the property, including an extension to the kitchen. The garden has also, lovingly evolved into a charming oasis of calm. Brookfield is now a home that provides light-filled spacious rooms with a welcoming Theambience.owners say the house is very much a home and recall many happy events: birthday gatherings in the house, meals in the dining hall, bouncy castles in the field and garden parties. The rooms are large enough to entertain family and friends and the owners especially love the lounge which is a perfect year round room, with a log burner making it a cosy retreat. The kitchen is the daily hub of the house, with an Aga and another log burner; it is a real place to settle in a comfy chair and appreciate family down time. The field and garden cover 4 acres, with a delightful combination of seasonal flowers, lawns, fruit trees, and vegetable patch. The two stables, tack and hay room and all weather menage make it the perfect home for the horse lover. The top patio makes a great place for an evening glass of wine whilst watching the sun go down. The owners say the house offers a very relaxed lifestyle. The best time of day is coming home from work and turning off the motorway, onto the leafy lane towards Brookfield and as you approach the house your shoulders relax and you begin to destress. Brookfield enjoys a good location. Lickey End is only 2 miles from Bromsgrove and Barnt Green and their train stations, with good schools, leisure opportunities and an annual classical music festival. Birmingham and the airport are also within easy reach. It is a perfect location for the commuter. The owners are sorry to leave Brookfield and will miss its freedom and happy atmosphere. They take away many happy memories.”*
