This mid-terrace three-bedroom house in Sparkhill offers an affordable entry into Birmingham’s housing market. With two reception rooms, a rear kitchen, and a paved garden with an outbuilding, the layout suits a small family or first-time buyer seeking immediate use and future improvement potential.
The property retains period features such as a front bay window and fireplace and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing. The solid-brick construction gives durable bones, and the footprint (c. 799 sq ft) provides modest but workable living space across two storeys.
Important practical points: the house sits in a very deprived area with a high local crime rate, and the building likely lacks cavity wall insulation. The property shows signs of dated finishes and will reward modest modernisation and energy-efficiency upgrades (EPC currently D, potential C).
For buyers seeking value, this home offers a low council-tax band, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus room to add value through refurbishment. It is freehold and well placed for local amenities and schools, but purchasers should factor in renovation costs and neighbourhood considerations when deciding to view.
