This mid-20th-century terraced house on Larne Road offers an affordable entry into Sheldon for a first-time buyer or investor. The property is freehold, has central heating, double glazing and off-street parking — practical features that reduce immediate costs and make day-to-day living straightforward. The rear garden with vehicle access adds useful outdoor space and potential for storage or conversion.
Internally the layout is traditional: lounge, dining room and kitchen on the ground floor with three bedrooms and a shower room upstairs. Rooms are modest in size (total c. 735 sq ft), so the house suits a couple, young family or buyers seeking a low-maintenance starter home rather than larger-family living. Built in the 1930s–1940s, the building has solid brick walls and retains period proportions such as a bay window to the front.
Practical considerations are clear: the property will benefit from updating and some modernisation, particularly the kitchen, bathroom and decor. Solid-wall construction means that thermal performance may be below modern standards unless insulation works are carried out. The area is recorded as relatively deprived, though local schools are rated well and transport and amenities are close by.
In short, this is a compact, well-located freehold home with useful outdoor space and parking. It offers good value for buyers willing to invest modestly in modernisation, or for investors seeking a straightforward rental in a residential part of Birmingham.
