Chain-free semi with garage and garden — ideal for first-time buyers willing to renovate.
No upward chain, freehold three-bedroom semi-detached
Offered with no upward chain, this freehold three-bedroom semi-detached house suits a first-time buyer or budget-conscious homeowner seeking improvement potential. The elevated plot gives a pleasant frontage with bay window and porch, while the rear garden and garage (accessed via a right of way) add useful outdoor and parking space. The ground floor features an enlarged lounge with feature fireplace and a dining kitchen with space for appliances and direct garden access through double doors.
The home is largely centrally heated via a mains-gas boiler and has aluminium double glazing, although the install date is unknown. Constructed around the 1930s–1940s in solid brick, the property currently needs renovation: cosmetic updating is required throughout and the walls may lack modern insulation. The bathroom is functional with a corner bath; the kitchen has some fitted units but will benefit from replacement for modern living.
Practical positives include a decent plot size, garage, cheap council tax banding and good local schools within short distance (several rated Good). Local services and broadband are strong, and there is no flood risk. Be aware the property is in a working-class part of Birmingham with average crime and some area deprivation indicators—buyers should factor renovation costs and potential insulation or heating upgrades into their budget.
This is a straightforward fix-and-improve opportunity: buy chain-free, renovate to your taste, and add value by updating the kitchen, bathroom and thermal performance. Viewings recommended to appreciate the layout, outdoor space and scope for uplift.
