This Victorian mid-terrace offers an affordable three-bedroom starter in Balsall Heath, sold with no onward chain. The house retains bay-window character, high ceilings and a compact, practical layout: two reception rooms, kitchen, downstairs bathroom and small rear courtyard with an outhouse.
The property is liveable but requires updating — cosmetic refurbishment and decluttering are needed throughout. It has mains gas central heating with a Baxi combi boiler and double glazing (installation dates unknown). Energy rating E and solid brick walls likely mean further insulation work would improve efficiency.
Location is a key strength: the home sits on the edge of Moseley with easy access to Stratford Road amenities, cafés and forthcoming rail links into the city. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low. Note the wider area records higher-than-average crime and significant deprivation, which may affect resale or lettability for some buyers.
This house suits a first-time buyer or investor willing to commit to modest refurbishment. The small plot and compact rooms make it manageable for a renovation project that could unlock value in a popular inner-city suburb.
