Compact cash-buy opportunity with refurbishment upside near local amenities.
Chain free first-floor maisonette, 496 sq ft, two bedrooms
This two-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers a compact, affordable entry into Kings Norton with straightforward layout and some outdoor space. At about 496 sq ft, rooms are practical in size and benefit from double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC C rating. The property is chain free and priced for a quick sale, which may suit cash buyers or investors seeking a discount purchase and refurbishment potential.
There are important constraints to note: the lease has only around 37–38 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders will refuse to lend against a lease of this length, so purchasers should plan for a cash purchase or confirm specialist lending before committing. Basic repair and modernisation work is required—decor is dated and there are reported damp issues in the living room—so budget for improvement and possible damp remediation.
The maisonette sits in a residential terrace from the 1950s–60s with a small front garden and an external store at entrance level. Local amenities, schools and transport links are close by, and council tax is low (Band A). The area shows above-average crime and local deprivation measures are higher than average, factors to weigh alongside the ongoing running costs and refurbishment budget.
For buyers who can proceed without standard mortgage finance, this property presents a chance to buy below typical market values, update the accommodation, and either occupy affordably or rent out in a well-connected part of Birmingham. Confirm lease extension costs, damp remediation quotes and lending options early in the process.
