Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom terraced house on Forest Drive in Harborne, Birmingham, presents itself as a comfortable family home, but with some opportunities for improvement. The property’s location in Harborne is a significant plus, offering access to well-regarded primary schools and convenient access to transportation. The kitchen appears to be recently updated and in good condition, while the bathroom is clean and functional. The property does, however, have a small rear garden. The main areas of concern would be the age and general appearance of the carpets and a few wall imperfections. While the house is livable, and some upgrades could greatly enhance its overall appeal and potential market value. The list price considers the location and amenities, but more precise evaluation is limited without a clear comparison with other, similar properties and complete square footage data. Overall, this property is an opportunity for someone who desires a comfortable family home in a popular area, but is prepared for some minor repairs and cosmetic improvements.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
