Summary - 51 SOMERTON DRIVE BIRMINGHAM B23 5SU
3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Chain-free three-bed with garage and scope to extend, sold at auction.
Three bedrooms with rear lounge-diner and ground-floor annex
This three-bedroom end-of-terrace sits on a wide corner plot in a convenient Erdington location, offered chain-free and sold at auction. The plot gives clear scope for side or rear extension subject to planning, making it suitable for a growing family or an investor seeking added value. The property includes a ground-floor annex, rear lounge-diner, front kitchen, garage/store and a decent garden.
The house requires renovation: fixtures and finishes need updating and some building work is likely to realise extension potential. Heating details are inconsistent in the available information — central heating is reported, but records also indicate no fixed system and electric heating may currently be in use; buyers should verify services. EPC rating C and double glazing are positives, though walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction.
Practical benefits include a private garage, corner-plot gardens and easy access to transport links — Erdington and Chester Road stations are around 0.5 miles away, with local shops and buses within a few minutes. The property is freehold and sold at auction with a non-refundable buyers’ fee and deposit; please review the legal pack before bidding.
Location factors to balance: the area has good schools nearby and strong commuter connections, but wider data shows above-average crime and local deprivation; consider these when assessing family suitability or rental prospects. A full inspection and survey are recommended to confirm scope, services and any structural or maintenance needs.
