A three-bedroom end-of-terrace on Vimy Road offers clear scope for uplift for buyers prepared to renovate. The house includes a garage, off-street parking and a private rear garden — useful practical assets for rental or resale after improvement. Sold freehold and chain-free, the layout is traditional with a good footprint for reconfiguration.
Major practical issues are frank: the property requires full modernisation and has an Energy Performance Rating of G, so mortgage finance may be restricted and the sale is for cash buyers only. There is no functioning central heating reported and the solid brick walls likely lack insulation, so expect significant works to heating, insulation and energy systems. Double glazing is present but installation date is unknown.
Location strengths include proximity to multiple well-rated primary and secondary schools, local shops, parks and transport links into Birmingham city centre. The council tax band is low, and broadband and mobile signal are good — sensible for tenants or family buyers once refurbished. However the immediate area records high crime and high deprivation, which will affect rental yields, capital growth prospects and insurance costs.
This property will suit experienced investors, builders or renovators seeking a lower-entry purchase with tangible value-add potential. Buyers should budget for heating, insulation, cosmetic and possibly structural works, and be prepared to buy in cash given the EPC and financing constraints. Viewing with a contractor and energy assessor is recommended before committing.
