This four-bedroom end-terrace in Selly Oak is offered freehold and currently let until June 2025 at £1,625 pcm, presenting an immediate rental income stream with no upward chain. The house sits in a highly demanded student neighbourhood close to universities, transport links and local amenities — a practical hold for buy-to-let portfolios.
The property dates from c.1900–1929, with solid brick walls and double glazing. Accommodation is compact (approximately 765 sq ft) with one bathroom, a small living room and a compact fitted kitchen. Gas central heating via boiler and radiators is installed and the location benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for student tenants.
Notable refurbishment is required to unlock full value: fittings are dated, decor needs updating and the building likely lacks wall insulation. On-street parking only and the area records above-average crime, which may influence tenant mix and insurance costs. These are honest, manageable considerations for an investor prepared to renovate and optimise rental yield.
Overall, the house is a straightforward, income-producing investment in a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood. It suits investors seeking steady rent with short- to medium-term improvement potential, while buyers looking for a modern family home should note the compact layout and single bathroom.
