Summary - 51 RODBOURNE ROAD BIRMINGHAM B17 0PN
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free three-bedroom house near hospital and university, ready for improvement.
Three bedrooms with lounge, kitchen and conservatory
A compact three-bedroom semi-detached house set on a quiet cul-de-sac, convenient for QE Hospital and the University of Birmingham. The property offers practical family accommodation across two floors, with a lounge, modern fitted kitchen, conservatory and a decent rear garden. Off-street parking to the front and a driveway add welcome convenience for families with cars.
Constructed in the early 20th century from solid brick, the house is double glazed and heated by a gas boiler with radiators. Chain-free sale makes for a straightforward purchase, and good local broadband and excellent mobile signal suit working-from-home and student family needs. Nearby primary and secondary schools have Good Ofsted ratings, which will appeal to parents.
Notable cons are the property’s small overall size (around 786 sq ft) and the likely lack of wall insulation in the original solid brick construction; upgrading insulation and energy efficiency should be expected. The immediate area has a high crime rate and elevated deprivation indicators, which buyers should weigh against the location benefits.
For families or investors, the house presents short-term move-in capability with clear scope for targeted improvements (insulation, landscaping, cosmetic updates) to increase comfort and long-term value. Its location, parking and proximity to local amenities give it practical everyday strengths despite the modest size and local challenges.
