Description

This traditional semi-detached bungalow presents a valuable opportunity for renovation and investment, situated on a spacious corner plot within the sought-after Shakespeare Manor Development. The property is conveniently located near the amenities of Shirley, offering easy access to a variety of shopping options, restaurants, and public transportation. Families will appreciate the property's proximity to several educational institutions, including Light Hall School, Woodlands Infant School, and Shirley Heath School. Additional schools like Our Lady of the Wayside Roman Catholic Schools and St Peter’s Roman Catholic Senior School are also within reach, enhancing its appeal to those with children. The local area boasts excellent transport links with frequent bus services along the A34 leading directly into Birmingham City Centre and Solihull. Shirley train station is also nearby, providing direct connections to Birmingham and Stratford upon Avon. For those who enjoy outdoor recreation or need access to business facilities, the surrounding community includes various parks and leisure centers, as well as retail parks that cater to a range of needs. The bungalow itself has been owned by the same family since its original construction and is in need of comprehensive refurbishment throughout. This presents an exceptional opportunity to personalize the space or consider potential extensions or even new development on the generous plot (subject to planning approval). With a large foregarden set back from the street on the corner of Antony Road and Oberon Drive, there is significant scope for reconfiguration or expansion. Internally, the layout consists of three bedrooms, a lounge measuring 4.60m x 4.57m (15'1" x 15'0"), a kitchen with dimensions of 3.61m max x 2.87m max (11'10" max x 9'5" max), bathroom facilities, as well as a separate WC. The property also features a rear garden and a single garage with accompanying driveway space.
