This substantial five-bedroom Victorian detached house delivers over 3,250 sq ft of flexible living across four floors, set on a large plot with private rear garden and off-street parking for several cars. High ceilings, original stone façade and period features give the home strong character and space for family life and entertaining. Sold freehold and with no onward chain, it suits buyers seeking immediate possession and scope to personalise.
The accommodation includes two principal reception rooms, a traditional kitchen with island and bay seating, a basement-level gym and utility, plus four bathrooms over the upper floors. Modern comforts include gas central heating and uPVC double glazing (installed post-2002). Connectivity is excellent (fast broadband, strong mobile signal) and the property sits close to multiple primary schools rated Good and local amenities.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the area records very high crime levels, council tax is above average, and the stone walls are likely uninsulated (as-built sandstone/limestone). The kitchen is dated and the house will benefit from targeted modernisation and insulation upgrades to improve energy performance. One nearby secondary school is rated Requires Improvement.
For families wanting generous rooms, scope to renovate and immediate availability, this Handsworth property offers rare scale and character. For buyers prioritising low-crime neighbourhoods or a fully modern energy-efficient home, factor remedial works and security measures into your plans.
