A rare, versatile five-bedroom end-of-terrace in Kings Heath offering flexible living and clear income potential. The property combines a newly renovated main house with a separate two-bed apartment and an attached ground-floor commercial unit (planning granted to convert back to living space). High ceilings, large windows and period red-brick character give generous light and presence despite the overall compact footprint.
The accommodation spans three floors plus outbuilding/garage potential and includes four bathrooms, double glazing, mains gas heating and off-street parking for two cars. Recent works mean many internal finishes are refreshed; broadband and mobile signal are excellent and there is no flood risk. Council tax is very low, helping running costs.
This will suit a family seeking proximity to strong local schools or an investor looking for immediate rental income and conversion upside. Be upfront: the wider area records high crime levels and significant deprivation, so buyers should factor this into long-term plans. The property’s mixed-use history and granted planning permission offer tangible options — keep the apartment for rent, extend the home, or restore the commercial unit to residential use.
Overall, the home presents immediate comfort with further value unlocked by the permitted conversion and garage/workshop potential. It’s best for buyers who value school catchment and transport links, want a mix of living and earning space, and are comfortable investing in a property within a higher-crime neighbourhood.
