This mid-terrace Victorian townhouse offers practical, move-in-ready accommodation for a first-time buyer or investor. The layout includes two reception rooms, a modern kitchen and a stylish upstairs bathroom, all arranged over two storeys. The property is freehold and occupies about 776 sq ft, with a private rear garden and useful outhouse with a WC.
Location is a clear strength: the house sits close to local shops, supermarkets, a mosque and frequent bus and rail links into Birmingham city centre — practical for commuting and daily needs. Several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, which will suit buyers planning for family life or rental demand.
There are some material points to note. The terrace is of original solid brick construction and is likely uninsulated in the wall cavities; buyers should budget for thermal improvements if desired. The plot is small and the rear garden is mainly slabbed. The property sits in a very deprived area statistically, although crime levels are reported as low. Council tax is very cheap, which offsets running costs.
Overall, this is a sensible, well-presented two-bedroom home with good transport links and local amenities. It suits a purchaser seeking an affordable entry into the local market or an investor looking for a straightforward rental property, while allowing scope for energy-efficiency upgrades in future.
