This Victorian terraced house is a freehold, chain-free opportunity in Erdington offering flexible accommodation across three levels. Previously operating as a 3/4-bedroom HMO, the layout was once five letting rooms with two bathrooms, giving clear scope for an investor to re-establish rental income or for a family to reconfigure living space. The property measures around 967 sq ft and includes a fitted kitchen with direct access to a large, low-maintenance slabbed rear garden.
The house needs renovation and refurbishment throughout. The top-floor room has ensuite facilities but is not currently in use; importantly, the existing steep stair design does not meet current building regulations and will require alteration for safe everyday use. The property sits within an Article Four and selective licensing area, so any HMO or rental use must comply with local licensing and planning rules.
Location is practical for commuters, with fast links via M6 Junction 6 and nearby train stations, plus regular local buses. Nearby schools are rated Good, and local amenities cover shops, petrol, and convenience stores. The area shows strong local rental demand, but note the wider context: the neighbourhood is classified as very deprived and records very high crime levels, which will influence lettings, insurance and refurbishment choices.
Overall, this house suits an experienced investor seeking to re-establish a licenced HMO or a buyer prepared to carry out renovation works to create a comfortable family home. The low-maintenance garden and period features (high ceilings, arched windows) offer solid value drivers once upgrades and compliance works are completed.
