Set on a popular residential street in Oldbury, this two-bedroom semi-detached house offers straightforward floorplan and a large rear garden — a clear asset for extension or rental amenity. The property has a porch, hallway, spacious lounge, separate dining room and a fitted kitchen with garden access, arranged over an average-sized 753 sq ft footprint.
The house is best suited to cash buyers or a buyer able to arrange non-standard finance: the lease has about 34–35 years remaining (lease end 10/09/2059), which will likely prevent mainstream mortgage offers. Ground rent is small (£30) but the short lease length is the principal legal and lending concern.
Internally the home shows mid-century character but requires updating — there’s dated flooring, older fixtures and general modernisation needed in places. For an investor or buyer prepared to renovate, the property’s location (easy bus links, Langley Green rail nearby, quick access to the M5) and low council tax create attractive running costs and rental potential.
Buyers should factor in the cost and process of lease extension or cash purchase when assessing value. This is a practical opportunity for a cash investor or a buyer wanting a project with a sizable garden and convenient access to local amenities and schools.
