This chain-free three-bedroom semi-detached house on Beacon Road offers an affordable entry into Kingstanding with practical parking and outdoor space. Set on a decent plot, it includes a driveway for two cars, a separate garage and a rear garden — features that are increasingly rare at this price point.
Inside, the traditional layout provides a through lounge with dual-aspect light, a separate kitchen and three bedrooms (two doubles and a single). The property is compact overall (approximately 775 sq ft) but well-proportioned, making it a manageable first home or a straightforward rental. Previous planning permission for an additional room over the garage exists and can be reviewed on Birmingham City Council’s portal, offering clear scope to add value (subject to planning).
Practical buyers should note a few material issues: the building is solid-brick with assumed no wall insulation, the property is currently tenanted (can be sold with tenants in situ or vacant possession), and the local area records above-average crime levels. These factors, together with the house’s modest size, mean some updating and security consideration may be needed.
Location is convenient for families and commuters alike, with several Good-rated primary and secondary schools nearby, frequent bus links and easy access towards Birmingham city centre and major roads. This home suits first-time buyers seeking a low-entry purchase with improvement potential or investors looking for a let-ready asset with future extension upside.
