A compact three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offering straightforward, affordable entry into the B69 market. The house has period character—bay window and fireplace—paired with modern finishes, gas central heating and double glazing throughout. Its footprint (about 945 sq ft) suits first-time buyers seeking manageable space and low ongoing council tax.
The location is commuter-friendly, with Langley Green and Rowley Regis stations a short trip away and local shops close by. The property includes an enclosed rear garden and on-street parking, plus immediate availability for viewing. EPC rating D signals typical thermal performance for its age.
Notable negatives are material: the house sits in a higher-crime, deprived area and has medium flood risk, which may affect insurance and resale. The solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and the property may benefit from insulation or other energy improvements to lower running costs. There is a single bathroom and modest plot size, so space is limited compared with newer family homes.
For first-time buyers this is an affordable starter home with character and commuter convenience, and for investors it offers straightforward rental potential in a well-connected area. Buyers should budget for possible energy upgrades and consider local area factors (crime, flood risk) when arranging surveys and insurance.
