Move-in-ready semi with garage, garden and good links — ideal first home.
Newly renovated throughout, ready to move into
This newly renovated three-bedroom semi-detached home on Green Meadow Road offers a straightforward, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers. The property benefits from an open-plan lounge/diner, modern kitchen with integrated appliances, a separate utility room and a recently refurbished contemporary bathroom. At about 1,034 sq ft on a corner plot, the house feels larger than average with a decent private rear garden, driveway and garage.
Practical details suit everyday life: double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators, freehold tenure and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Local amenities and transport links are strong — nearby bus routes, green space, playgrounds and local schools (several rated Good) make this a convenient base close to the University of Birmingham and Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
Buyers should note material local negatives: the neighbourhood is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rate, and the wider area profile indicates social renting and hampered neighbourhoods. The property has one family bathroom only, which may be a constraint for larger households. Service charge is £100 (below average) and council tax is moderate.
Overall, this is a practical first home or starter-family purchase: a bright, renovated mid-century house with sensible running costs and scope to personalise, balanced against local socio-economic challenges that may affect long-term resale or rental expectations.
