A substantial seven-bedroom Edwardian detached house on Yardley Wood Road offering exceptional floor area, wide frontage and off-street parking for multiple vehicles. High ceilings, bay windows and large open-plan living/dining spaces give strong period character and flexible room layouts across three floors. The rear garden with raised decking provides useful outdoor space for families or tenants.
Sold freehold and constructed before 1900, the property is best suited to buyers prepared to invest in refurbishment. It has double glazing (fitted before 2002) and mains gas central heating, but the solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated and the house requires modernisation throughout. Renovation will be needed to update finishes, services and energy efficiency to current standards.
For investors the house presents clear rental or multi-occupancy potential given seven bedrooms, three bathrooms and easy access to local amenities and transport into Birmingham city centre. For a large family, the size, multiple reception rooms and nearby schools are strong positives. Buyers should budget for refurbishment, potential insulation work, and higher running/maintenance costs associated with a large, period property sited in a more deprived area.
Viewings are advised to appreciate the scale and layout. Key facts: freehold, approximately 2,584 sq ft, large plot, three-storey period construction, council tax band moderate, no listed flood risk.
