This recently renovated three-storey end-of-terrace townhouse offers move-in ready family living on a larger-than-average corner plot within the Oaks development. The home benefits from contemporary finishes throughout: a bright open-plan living, dining and kitchen on the first floor, a principal bedroom with en-suite, two further bedrooms, plus a small dedicated study ideal for home working. Practical extras include an integral tandem garage with EV charging, driveway parking and a remaining NHBC warranty (approx. five years).
The layout suits families or professionals who value low-maintenance, energy-efficient accommodation close to major local employers and transport links. Fast broadband, upgraded ethernet points and excellent mobile signal support remote working and streaming. The rear garden is modest but private, with patio and lawn maintained for easy outdoor use; internal storage is good with cupboards and an airing cupboard.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the plot and rear garden are modest in size, so outdoor space is limited; the local recorded crime level is very high, which may affect buyer suitability and insurance costs. There is an annual estate charge of £293.20 and although service charges are low, purchasers should confirm any future communal obligations. Overall this is a practical, modern family home offered chain-free, best suited to those prioritising location, energy efficiency and low-maintenance living over extensive grounds.
Viewing is recommended for families or professionals seeking a turnkey property near University of Birmingham, Queen Elizabeth Hospital and local transport links who accept modest outdoor space and a high-crime local profile.
