- Around 1,278 sq ft; freehold tenure
- Off-street parking and low-maintenance rear garden

This three-storey, four-bedroom terraced townhouse offers a practical family layout close to Birmingham city amenities. Built around 1996–2002, the property is freehold and provides gas central heating, double glazing (install dates unknown) and off-street parking. The compact rear garden is low-maintenance and the house measures about 1,278 sq ft overall.
The house sits a short distance from the city centre, major transport links and a wide range of local shops, places of worship and community facilities. Nearby schools include an Outstanding-rated primary and a Good secondary, which will appeal to families. Council Tax Band B is relatively inexpensive for the area.
Realistically, this is a renovation opportunity. The kitchen and at least some internal fixtures are dated and in need of attention; photos and description indicate incomplete or partial upgrades. Broadband speeds are very slow, and the immediate area reports high crime and significant deprivation — factors to weigh for family buyers or investors. Despite these issues, the property's size, central location and freehold tenure give clear potential for improvement and rental or resale upside once modernised.
If you need quick access to Birmingham and want a flexible four-bedroom home to update to your taste, this property could suit. Buyers should budget for renovation costs, check security measures, and consider improving broadband and internal finishes after purchase.
