Welcome to Sutton Coldfield

Some locations seem to spring up overnight. Their population and popularity advances at an astonishing rate, as does everything else that makes an area worth living in. These places can grab headlines and get a sense of buzz around them, often becoming trendy spots which demand extremely high prices. Sutton Coldfield is not one of those.

This is an area which has grown and transformed slowly and organically over many, many centuries, and continues to do so today. Its attributes may not be as famous for that reason, but we think a location like this – forged through history rather than commercial force – has a lot more to offer than your average place to live.

Sutton Coldfield’s influences date back to the Roman period through the Anglo-Saxon kingdom, across Tudor rule, shooting up with industrial growth and then stretching outward as a commuter town. This means that Sutton Coldfield has amazing historical sites to explore, enjoy and study, such as Middleton Hall & Gardens and King Edwards Square.

It also has a unique local culture that cannot be replicated or reproduced anywhere else. This culture also includes a love of sports, alongside a local community which provides the area with thriving businesses and independent stores.

Its advancements also mean that residents can enjoy all the opportunities in the area, whether they are in employment or education. They can also take advantage of opportunities elsewhere, as the fast and frequent connections to the Cross-City line opens up the rest of the country to Sutton Coldfield residents.

Of course, we can’t talk about Sutton Coldfield without mentioning the many amazing parks and green spaces. These provide a healthy and fun day out for people of all ages. Take Sutton Park, for instance. It’s one of the largest urban parks in Britain, with a couple thousand acres of space to roam around in. On top of all of this, Sutton Coldfield never forgets to have a fun side, with the likes of Thomas Land and Drayton Manor Theme Park as easily found as any historical site.

Sutton Coldfield has been progressing slowly and steadily over a very long time, but it has aged beautifully, with that backdrop providing a depth to the area that remains unrivalled.

What is Shared Ownership?

Shared Ownership is a government scheme that allows buyers to purchase a share in a property, usually between 10% and 75%, while paying a reduced market rent to a housing association on the remainder. The scheme gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share in a new-build or resales property.
