Ideal buy-to-let a short walk from university and hospital with strong tenant demand.
Chain-free freehold Victorian terraced house, easy purchase
Three bedrooms within a compact 712 sqft layout
Close to University, hospital and strong rental demand
Small rear garden and limited overall plot size
Some rooms dated and will require refurbishment
Area classified as deprived with above-average crime rates
Low council tax; running costs likely favourable for tenants
Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, good connectivity
This chain-free, three-bedroom Victorian terraced house sits in Selly Oak, close to the University of Birmingham, Queen Elizabeth Hospital and good transport links. Its freehold tenure and compact 712 sqft layout make it straightforward to acquire and manage, particularly for buy-to-let investors targeting student and professional demand.
The property retains period features such as a bay window and traditional brick façade, but several rooms show dated fixtures and will need refurbishment to reach modern rental or family standards. The house is fully double-glazed and has a low-maintenance rear garden, but overall garden and plot size are small.
Buyers should note the local context: the area is classified as deprived with above-average crime rates. These factors affect family buyers and may influence rental pricing or insurance costs. Council tax is low, which supports affordability for tenants or owner-occupiers.
Overall, this is a practical, no-chain purchase with clear short-term rental potential or scope for light renovation to increase value. It suits investors seeking proximity to strong rental demand or buyers prepared to update a compact Victorian property.
