Three-bedroom semi-detached house with bay-front living room
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Marcot Road offers straightforward family living in a popular Solihull location. The layout is traditional and practical: a bright bay-fronted lounge leads through to an open-plan kitchen–diner with double doors spilling onto a large, private rear garden — ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. Driveway parking and a decent plot add everyday convenience.
Internally the property is in good overall condition but clearly benefits from light modernisation and finishing touches to reflect contemporary tastes. Two generous double bedrooms and a smaller third bedroom suit a growing family, while a single well-sized family bathroom serves the household. The house has double glazing installed (post-2002), mains gas central heating and solid brick construction; note the walls are assumed to be uninsulated and the home will repay upgrading.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus nearby good primary and secondary schools. Equally important are the downsides: the home is compact at around 689 sq ft, needs renovation work in places, and has a single bathroom. Prospective buyers should commission their own surveys and be aware of potential insulation or energy-improvement costs.
Overall this is a well-located, characterful 1930s/40s semi with garden and parking that will appeal to first-time buyers or young families seeking a solid base to personalise and increase value in an affluent, well-connected suburb of Solihull.
