Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house is offered with no onward chain and has a porch, entrance hall with under-stairs storage, separate lounge and dining room, and a fitted kitchen with pantry space. The lounge has an inset feature fire, while the dining room has French doors to the rear garden. The kitchen and dining room could potentially be reconfigured as an open-plan space, subject to the necessary checks and approvals. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a four-piece family bathroom. Outside, the property has driveway parking for two cars, a single garage and a front lawn. The private south-west-facing rear garden includes a patio and raised lawn. The listing notes potential for extension, subject to planning permission; feasibility and any required consents would need to be verified. The property is in Solihull, with the town centre, motorway connections and Birmingham International Airport and railway station described as accessible by car. The listing also refers to local school catchments. It is freehold, and the stated flood risk rating is very low.

54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a well-kept three-bedroom semi with a particularly appealing south-west-facing garden, patio and driveway parking. The visible work is light: most photographed rooms look clean and maintained, while the older-style kitchen offers an optional update and the listing suggests exploring an open-plan kitchen/dining layout. Extension potential is also mentioned, subject to planning permission and feasibility checks.

At £400,000, the asking price is slightly above the local £/sqf benchmark, and the numbers are tight: purchase plus the stated renovation midpoint comes to £410,000, above the implied local-average value benchmark. So while the house has a useful canvas and good family fundamentals, the price leaves limited room for a project buyer to create value.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated but apparently functional kitchen, or investigate the suggested open-plan kitchen/dining arrangement subject to structural, services and approval checks.
  • Make the most of the south-west-facing rear garden, with its patio and lawn, as an attractive family and entertaining space.
  • Explore the stated extension potential, subject to planning permission and feasibility.
