Summary - Serpentine Road, Selly Park, Birmingham, B29 B29 7HU
21 bed 8 bath Detached
Half-acre site near University — major redevelopment or investment opportunity.
0.5-acre wrap-around plot in prime Selly Park location
A rare half-acre site in prime Selly Park, this substantial detached property combines a 16-bedroom guest house with an adjoining newly refurbished 5-bedroom dwelling (total 21 bedrooms) set on wrap-around grounds. The plot’s size, conservation-area setting and proximity to the University of Birmingham and Queen Elizabeth Hospital create strong redevelopment and rental demand potential.
The main house displays period character—Tudor/Victorian features, mature trees and a generous drive—while the adjoined five-bed has been newly refurbished and is immediately lettable or usable. The freehold title, low local crime and fast broadband add practical appeal for operators, investors or an owner-occupier planning a large conversion.
This is principally a redevelopment opportunity: conversion into a single large home, boutique apartments or purpose-built student/worker accommodation would require planning consent and detailed feasibility work. The wider area shows pockets of deprivation despite a local classification of highly qualified professionals; prospective buyers should factor in possible planning constraints, service upgrades and refurbishment costs.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate scale, period detail and the significant plot. Key due diligence points include planning potential in the conservation area, checks on services and running costs, and confirmation of council tax and business-rate implications for any change of use.
