3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Well-located starter home with garden and garage, ready for improvement.
• Freehold three-bedroom semi-detached with period features
• Driveway plus double garage and gated rear access
• Conservatory and decent-sized rear garden
• Single family bathroom serving three bedrooms
• EPC rating D; energy improvements advised
• Cavity walls assumed uninsulated (upgrade potential)
• Located near Kings Norton station, schools and M42 links
• Area flagged as relatively deprived—consider resale/rental risk
Set across a slightly elevated plot in Kings Norton, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a sensible starter home or buy-to-let opportunity. The property combines period character—bay window and traditional brickwork—with practical features such as a driveway, double garage and a conservatory opening onto a well-kept garden. Its freehold tenure and affordable council tax band help keep running costs manageable.
Internally the layout follows a traditional plan with a reception/dining room, kitchen with extended utility area and one family bathroom serving three bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms are doubles and benefit from fitted wardrobes. Double glazing and gas central heating are in place, but the current EPC rating of D and assumed lack of cavity wall insulation indicate scope to improve energy efficiency and running costs.
Location is a genuine selling point: good transport links to Birmingham city centre, easy access to the M42, nearby Kings Norton station, and a range of schools and local amenities within walking distance. The plot is a decent size for the area and the rear garden and double garage add flexibility for storage, parking or future extension (subject to planning).
Important considerations: the property sits in an area flagged as relatively deprived, which may influence resale or rental yields. There is only one bathroom for three bedrooms, and some fabric upgrades—particularly insulation and an improved EPC—would be advisable to reduce bills and increase value. Overall, this is a practical, characterful home with clear potential for modest investment or first-time ownership.
