Set on Harborne Park Road, this extended four-bedroom detached house sits directly opposite Grove Park and offers practical family living close to local schools, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and University train links. The ground floor has been opened up to provide a long lounge/dining space with Velux rooflights and bifold doors that bring light into the rear garden; a recently refitted breakfast kitchen and a snug add flexible living space for children or home working.
Bedrooms are arranged over the first floor, with a principal room and a useful en-suite plus three further bedrooms served by a family bathroom with a new Worcester combi boiler. Off-street parking and a small garage offer vehicle storage and workshop potential; the garden is enclosed with paved seating and lawn, backing onto parkland.
Buyers should note some clear practical drawbacks: the property sits on solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, double glazing was installed prior to 2002, and the small garage and front garden show signs of wear and need maintenance. Council Tax is band E (above average) and the area is marked as relatively deprived despite being popular with local professionals.
This house suits a family seeking space close to amenities and transport, or an owner-occupier willing to carry modest updating to improve energy performance and refresh external areas. The layout and location deliver immediate practical benefits, with scope to enhance value through targeted energy and cosmetic improvements.
