Property Oracle says ..
This four-bedroom, three-story town house in Handsworth, Birmingham, presents a mixed bag of pros and cons. The property’s biggest strength is its location. Its proximity to excellent schools such as Nishkam Primary School and King Edward VI Handsworth School, both with ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted ratings, is a significant advantage for families. The relatively close proximity to the Jewellery Quarter train station enhances its appeal. The house itself has four bedrooms, which is generous. However, the condition of the property needs consideration. The photos reveal the interior requires renovation or significant modernisation. The kitchen and bathrooms appear dated and in need of updating. The flooring and wall coverings are also not modern. While the property benefits from a small garden, it currently needs attention. The lack of plot size provided hinders an exact assessment. Overall, this house offers potential but requires significant investment before it becomes a truly comfortable and desirable home. The price of £265,000 is likely to attract buyers who understand the property needs updating and who are looking to add value through renovation, location is a key aspect to the property’s value and potential to add value.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
