Spacious four-bed period home with large garden backing onto Bournbrook Pool.
Detached 1920s Tudor‑style home with period features
This substantial 1920s Tudor‑style detached home in Selly Park offers four bedrooms, two reception rooms and a large garage on a generous freehold plot. Sitting back from the road with an in‑and‑out driveway, the property fronts a sought‑after residential street and benefits from a large rear garden that backs directly onto the tranquil Bournbrook Pool — rare for an inner‑city setting.
Internally the house offers generous room sizes across approximately 1,420 sq ft and retains period character such as oak beams and bay windows. The layout suits a growing family who value space, nearby parks and excellent local links: University of Birmingham, Queen Elizabeth Hospital and Selly Oak station are all close by.
The house does require modernisation throughout. There is only one bathroom and some areas will need updating to meet contemporary expectations — a clear opportunity for refurbishment to add significant value. Crime rates in the area are above average; buyers should consider security measures and local neighbourhoods when viewing.
Overall, this is a rare detached period property on a large plot in a highly convenient location. It will particularly appeal to families seeking space and outdoor privacy or buyers looking to renovate a character home close to the university and city amenities.
