Set on a generous plot in desirable Streetly, this three-bedroom semi-detached house is arranged over two storeys and suits a growing family seeking space and good local schools. The property offers comfortable, well-proportioned rooms, a bay-fronted lounge with feature fireplace, separate dining room and a kitchen that opens to a mature rear garden with patio and greenhouses.
Practical benefits include a private driveway, an attached single garage and a useful utility area with access to the garden. The home is freehold, on mains gas with a boiler and radiators, double glazing already installed, and no flood risk — all useful conveniences for everyday family life.
The house dates from the mid-20th century (circa 1950–1966) and presents genuine potential to modernise. The shower room plus separate WC provide functional arrangements, but the property would benefit from updating in parts (kitchen, bathroom and internal finishes). Double glazing installed before 2002 and other original fittings may be approaching the point where renewal or improvement is sensible.
This is a straightforward family purchase in an affluent, low-crime area with excellent mobile and broadband provision, good transport links and several well-rated schools within easy reach. Buyers looking to add value through sympathetic refurbishment will find this a practical and well-located option.
