Single-storey living with garage, garden and strong transport links.
Detached single-storey bungalow with private garden and garage
This detached three-bedroom bungalow on Redditch Road offers single-storey living with a private garden and garage — a straightforward option for buyers seeking to downsize without sacrificing outdoor space. The layout is traditional and practical: a bright living room with a bay window, a functional kitchen and three well-proportioned bedrooms. Mains gas central heating and double glazing are already in place for everyday comfort.
Built between 1930 and 1949, the house retains period character in its brick facade and pitched roof but also shows scope for improvement. The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (as-built), so energy performance could be improved with cavity/solid-wall insulation works. The property totals about 807 sq ft with a single bathroom, so buyers should note the modest internal floor area and family-bathroom constraint.
Positioned for good transport links — close to bus routes, the M42/M40/M5 and less than two miles from Kings Norton station — the home suits purchasers who commute. Local schools rate well and shops and amenities are nearby. The freehold tenure and a decent plot size add practical appeal; however, the surrounding area is relatively deprived and crime levels are average, which may influence buyer priorities and future resale considerations.
