A well-proportioned three-bedroom detached home set on a large corner plot in sought-after Halesowen. The house retains period character — bay windows, art-deco fireplaces and high-quality built-in storage — while practical upgrades include a new Worcester Bosch combi boiler with Hive controls, recent rewiring and an EV charger fused spur.
Accommodation is arranged over two main storeys with a boarded loft, versatile reception rooms and a breakfast kitchen with pantry and adjoining utility. Outside offers a block-paved driveway, garage and mature rear and side gardens with paved seating, vegetable patch, greenhouse and a brick-built fire pit. There is clear scope to extend (subject to consents) to increase living space and value.
Energy-efficiency improvements completed in June 2024 include enhanced loft insulation and cavity wall insulation, which the vendor expects will materially improve the EPC rating from E to around B (subject to reassessment). The property is freehold and well placed for good local schools, shops and transport links, making it suitable for growing families seeking space and future potential.
Buyers should note practical matters: the home has a single main bathroom plus separate WC, the original solid brick walls likely have limited built-in insulation, and the area records above-average crime. Council Tax is band D. A survey is recommended to confirm condition and scope for extension or further insulation works.
