A Spotlight on Edgbaston, Birmingham
Welcome to the next instalment of Habitats hot spots, where we'll be taking a look at the popular Birmingham suburb of Edgbaston.
Although perhaps most famous for Edgbaston Cricket Ground, Edgbaston is also well-known for its stunning Georgian architecture and green spaces, making it one of the more expensive places to live in Birmingham.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With an average property price of £321,725, Edgbaston is pricey for the area, but in our minds, you get what you pay for here – some of Birmingham’s most beautiful properties, a wide range of schools within a stone’s throw, and a commute of just a few miles into the centre of town. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Edgbaston residents have Birmingham’s first ever Michelin starred restaurant on their doorstep - Simpsons Restaurant - which has been offering the locals first-class dining since 2004. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Alongside a host of local cafes and shops, there's plenty to keep residents entertained. And when you need to walk off all that delicious food? Head to The Birmingham Botanical Gardens for a stroll, or even to peruse its annual Antiques at the Gardens.
