The asking price of £175,000 seems reasonable considering the property’s location, condition and the size of the garden. The average price for nearby streets varies considerably, reflecting a range of property types and sizes. While some nearby homes are significantly more expensive, reflecting a different type of property or size, others within a similar property range support this price. The lack of readily available square footage information on other comparable properties makes detailed price per square foot comparison difficult and less useful in this analysis. The relatively modest condition of the property could be a factor for price negotiation.

The property appears to be in generally good condition, though it shows signs of needing some updating. While the photos show a habitable space, the kitchen and bathroom look slightly dated and could benefit from modernizing. The overall presentation is clean and tidy, suggesting that the property is well-maintained. Carpets and wallpaper show signs of age and there is a need for some refreshing.

The property benefits from a convenient location close to Shirley High Street and Maypole Shopping parade, offering easy access to local amenities. Proximity to good schools, including Mill Lodge Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and other options nearby, further enhances its appeal. Train station access within a reasonable distance adds to its desirability, although it’s not immediately adjacent. The surrounding area’s average property prices suggest a solid location within the Solihull market.

The property includes a garden, which is a positive aspect. However, the size of the garden appears to be relatively modest, particularly compared to other properties in the area. While the garden provides outdoor space, it doesn’t offer extensive grounds or significant landscaping. The presence of play equipment indicates a typical family sized garden.
