This newly renovated three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a practical family home with modern finishes and sensible running costs. The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an attached single garage with additional outhouse storage—useful for bikes and tools. At around 869 sq ft the layout is traditional and straightforward, with a bright reception, contemporary kitchen and a private, low-maintenance rear garden.
The location provides strong transport links and local amenities within walking distance, plus several nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted. The home is sold freehold and chain free, which can simplify and speed up a purchase for first-time buyers or investors looking for an easy-to-manage rental property.
Important practical points: the plot is small and the house has a single family bathroom, which may feel limiting for larger households. The property is in a very deprived area and sits in a high flood-risk zone — buyers should obtain flood-insurance quotes and investigate local flood defences before committing. These factors affect suitability and insurance costs.
Overall, this is a sensible, ready-to-move-in home for buyers seeking value in Birmingham: comfortable, economical to run, and straightforward to maintain. It will particularly suit first-time buyers, young families wanting nearby schools and commuters needing good transport links, or investors seeking a newly refurbished rental with immediate occupancy potential.
