Summary - 281 ROCKY LANE GREAT BARR BIRMINGHAM B42 1NG
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Driveway, garden and easy rail links ideal for first-time buyers.
Well presented three-bedroom semi-detached
This well‑presented three-bedroom semi offers a practical, move‑in ready starter home in Great Barr. The living space includes a long lounge/diner and a separate kitchen; interiors are neutral and recently refreshed, so immediate decoration or minor updates are minimal. Outside there’s off-street parking plus a well‑maintained rear garden — useful for first homes and families.
The location is a clear convenience: Hamstead train station, regular buses, local shops and several highly rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach. The property is freehold, has double glazing and mains gas central heating, and sits on a decent plot for this size of house.
Notable limitations are factual and important to consider. The house is relatively small (about 689 sq ft) with a single family bathroom. The wider area records higher crime levels and has pockets of deprivation; prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on local conditions. The building dates from the 1930s and, while presented well, buyers should commission a survey for structural, services or electrics verification before purchase.
Overall this is a practical, affordable option for first‑time buyers or small families who want a ready home with commute links and good schools nearby, and who are comfortable buying in an urban area that may benefit from longer‑term local investment.
