Summary - 55 SHENLEY FIELDS ROAD BIRMINGHAM B29 5AL
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Character-filled detached home with garden, garage and scope to modernise.
Detached three-bedroom home with period character and bay windows
This three-bedroom detached house on Shenley Fields Road offers character and practical family living in Selly Oak. A bay-front reception room and an extended open-plan kitchen/diner with skylights create bright, flexible ground-floor space. The inglenook fireplace provides a striking focal point in the secondary living area. Outside, a decent rear garden with patio and a rear garage (access via a shared driveway) give useful outdoor and storage space.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms with bay windows and a smaller third room suitable as a study or child’s bedroom, plus a single family bathroom on the first floor. The property retains period features but has scope for modernisation and improvement throughout — ideal for buyers who want character with potential to update. The overall internal size is modest at about 793 sq ft, so storage and room layouts should be considered.
Location is a major selling point: close to the University of Birmingham and Queen Elizabeth Hospital, parks and play areas are on the doorstep, and Selly Oak’s shops, cafés and transport links are nearby. Regular buses and a local train station make commuting straightforward. Note practical considerations: the area records above-average crime rates and local deprivation indicators are higher than average, and the driveway access is shared. The property is freehold and well placed for families or professionals seeking proximity to local amenities and institutions.
