A practical two-bedroom semi-detached home in South Yardley, well suited to first-time buyers, downsizers or landlords. The property offers straightforward living across two storeys with a bay-fronted lounge and an extended sun lounge that increases usable space and natural light.
The house benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and a rear garage with vehicular access — useful in an area where on-street parking can be limited. The plot includes a paved front driveway and a rear garden; the footprint and room sizes are typical for a suburban 1930s semi, totalling about 836 sq ft.
Rooms are cleanly laid out but the property will suit buyers prepared to update finishes: the kitchen is modest in size and some interior elements show age. The walls are original solid brick (likely without modern cavity insulation), so adding insulation or undertaking renovation work would improve comfort and efficiency. The surrounding area offers good access to shops, schools and transport links.
Overall this is an affordable freehold chance to secure a well-located two-bedroom house with scope to modernise and add value. Buyers should budget for modest updating and possible energy-efficiency improvements when considering purchase.
