Set on a substantial 0.26-acre plot and offered with no onward chain, this 1930s detached home blends original character with sensible modern updates. The property features three double bedrooms, a large dual-aspect lounge/diner with period details, and a modern fitted kitchen plus separate utility — practical for family living. The detached double garage and wide driveway provide generous parking and storage.
The rear garden is beautifully maintained and private, with mature planting, a paved patio and an outdoor store — a rare, sizeable outdoor space so close to city amenities. There is excellent scope to extend or reconfigure (subject to planning permission), making it an appealing purchase for growing families or buyers wanting to add value.
Practical considerations are explicit: this is a freehold house in a busy urban area with above-average local crime rates and an expensive council tax band. Any extension plans will require planning consent; no permissions are currently recorded. Buyers should also verify the condition of fixtures and services with their own surveyors, as standard checks have not been provided.
Overall this is a roomy, characterful family home in a sought-after Selly Park location, with strong local schools, good transport links and proximity to the University and hospitals. It suits purchasers looking for immediate comfortable living and long-term potential to extend or modernise.
