Summary - Sir Richards Drive, Birmingham, West Midlands, B17 B17 8SS
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Three-bedroom property with garden and garage in desirable Calthorpe estate.
No upward chain — freehold tenure
Set on the sought-after Calthorpe estate in Harborne, this three-bedroom detached house offers solid bones and clear renovation potential. With around 1,031 sq ft of living space, a decent plot, garage and driveway, the layout suits a growing family looking to create a long-term home in an affluent neighbourhood.
Highlights include a large lounge/dining area, separate dining room, ground-floor cloakroom and three double bedrooms upstairs. The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fibre broadband (FTTP) and excellent mobile signal — practical strengths for modern family life.
The house dates from the late 1960s–1970s and will reward updating: kitchens, bathrooms and some internal finishes are dated and the home is presented with clear scope for modernisation. There is a single family bathroom only, and the layout reflects its era rather than an open-plan contemporary design.
No upward chain and freehold tenure simplify the purchase process. Local schools include several Good-rated primaries and secondaries, with a mix of provision nearby. Crime is average and the wider area is affluent with strong professional and community demographics, making this an appealing long-term family purchase or refurbishment project for added value.
