Large plot, garage and strong extension potential (STPP) — chain free.
Three-bedroom detached house on a large plot
Set on a substantial plot in Great Barr, this three-bedroom detached house offers immediate family living with clear scope to grow. The ground floor includes two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and a downstairs guest W.C., while upstairs provides three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. A large driveway and side garage provide generous off-road parking and storage.
The property's main appeal is its extension potential: there is scope to extend to the side and rear (subject to planning permission), making it a strong long-term option for buyers who want to create extra living space. No upward chain makes for a straightforward purchase timetable for purchasers ready to act.
The house dates from the mid-20th century and retains period character, but some updating is needed internally — textured/plaster walls, dated carpets and fittings suggest cosmetic refurbishment would be required to modernise. Walls appear to be original solid brick with no apparent cavity insulation (assumed), so buyers should budget for potential energy-efficiency improvements.
Local amenities and schools are nearby, including several primary schools rated Good and a highly rated secondary option. The wider area shows signs of deprivation and recorded crime levels are average; prospective buyers should satisfy themselves about local conditions and check services, EPC and any specialist surveys prior to exchange.
