Chain-free Victorian terrace with garden — good location for first-time buyers or investors.
Chain-free freehold Victorian mid-terrace with two receptions
Set on a popular residential street in Kings Heath, this two-bedroom Victorian terrace offers period character and practical living space for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The house has two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen with garden access, and a small private garden with outbuilding and external W.C. The property is chain-free and freehold, making for a straightforward purchase.
The home retains traditional features such as a front bay window and decorative mouldings, and it sits close to local amenities, popular schools and improving transport links into Birmingham city centre. Yardley Wood and the new Kings Heath station (completion due 2024) are within easy reach, and regular bus routes serve the area.
There are some important practical considerations: the property currently has only partial central heating with the boiler located in the bathroom, EPC rating E, and the original solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation. The house is structurally typical of early 20th-century terraces but will benefit from updating and energy-efficiency improvements.
For buyers wanting a manageable project with scope to add value, this terrace presents a clear opportunity. The layout and garden suit small families or couples who want accessible living close to shops, cafes and good schools. Investors will note the area’s steady rental demand and reasonable council tax band.
