A compact two-bedroom mid-terrace in a quiet private cul-de-sac, this freehold home suits a first-time buyer or someone downsizing. The ground floor offers a modern galley kitchen to the front and a lounge/dining room with patio doors opening onto a neatly kept rear garden. Upstairs are two cosy bedrooms and a family bathroom; the property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and off-street parking.
The location is a key strength: Riverside Court sits close to Kings Norton train station for frequent links into Birmingham New Street, with easy access to the M42/M5 and local green spaces and nature reserves. Local amenities and a mix of good and outstanding schools nearby make the area practical for young families or commuters.
Buyers should note the property is small (about 585 sq ft) and the plot is modest, so it will appeal to those seeking a manageable, low-maintenance home rather than larger family accommodation. There is a medium flood risk in the area and the wider neighbourhood scores higher on deprivation indices, which may affect insurance costs and resale considerations.
Construction is relatively modern (late 1990s–early 2000s) with cavity walls and a mains gas boiler; double glazing is present though installation date is unknown. Overall this is a well-presented, low-upkeep home in a peaceful setting, offering sensible commuter links and good local schooling options for buyers prioritising convenience over space.
