Moving to or from Harborne? Let M&G Do the Heavy Lifting (Before the High Street Tempts You Into Yet Another Coffee Stop)
Welcome to Harborne โ Birminghamโs leafy suburb with a village feel, a High Street that could double as a cafรฉ crawl, and Victorian houses that make estate agents swoon. With around 25,000 residents, Harborne blends city convenience with suburban charm, all just three miles from Birmingham city centre.
Schools That Actually Impress
Harborne Primary and St Maryโs are wellโregarded, while nearby secondary options include Lordswood and King Edward VI schools. Translation: your kids will get a solid education and youโll get used to hearing about school trips to Symphony Hall before theyโve even mastered their recorder.
Economy With a Suburban Buzz
Harborne thrives on independents โ cafรฉs, restaurants, and boutiques that give the High Street its character. Add in supermarkets, services, and easy access to Birminghamโs business districts, and youโve got a suburb thatโs as practical as it is stylish.
Things to Do (Besides Ordering Another Flat White)
Harborne High Street โ a cafรฉโloverโs paradise, with more brunch spots than you can shake a latte at.
Harborne Walkway โ a green corridor perfect for joggers, dogโwalkers, and anyone pretending to be outdoorsy.
Local favourites โ The Plough for food and drink, Harborne Pool & Fitness Centre for a workout, and nearby Edgbaston for cricket and leafy strolls.
