A rare six-bedroom Victorian terrace on Pershore Road offering versatile living for first-time buyers seeking space or buyers considering rental income. The house retains period character — bay window, arched windows and cornices — combined with a modern living room and a large private rear garden. Freehold, vacant and previously licensed as an HMO, it has proven rental performance, making it suitable for owner-occupiers who may later offset costs with lettings.
Practical facts are straightforward: the property extends to around 1,289 sq ft with two bathrooms serving six bedrooms, and sits in a busy, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with fast broadband. Recent reported rental income was £35,880 per year (inclusive of bills), with tenancies concluded in June 2025. HMO use would be subject to current licensing and local rules if you plan to restart letting immediately.
There are some material considerations to note. Crime levels in the area are above average and the house may benefit from targeted refurbishment to modernise bathrooms, kitchens or compliance items if re-entering the HMO market. For first-time buyers wanting a substantial family home, the layout offers potential to reconfigure rooms and add value through updating while retaining attractive period features.
Located close to a mix of primary and secondary schools, local shops and good transport links, the property suits buyers looking for a larger, character-filled home with development potential. It represents a clear entry point into Selly Park with both lifestyle and income options, provided you assess licensing and any refurbishment costs before purchase.
