The property is located in Hales Gardens, Erdington, Birmingham. It’s a two-bedroom, one-bathroom property with a small garden. The property is listed at £140,000. The average price for properties in the area is £225,624, with an average price per square foot of £271. However, the provided square footage for this property (10.26 sqft) seems highly inaccurate and likely a data entry error. This makes a meaningful price per sqft comparison impossible. Nearby properties on Hales Gardens have sold for prices ranging from £72,000 to £202,500. This wide range suggests significant variation in property size, condition, and features. Based on the photographs, the property appears to be in generally fair condition, though some cosmetic updates and potential repairs (e.g., patching walls) would likely improve its overall presentation. The garden is small and requires some maintenance. The property’s location in Erdington, Birmingham, places it within reach of several schools (including Oscott Academy and Story Wood School, both with good Ofsted ratings) and several train stations (such as Erdington and Gravelly Hill). The proximity to these amenities is a positive aspect of the location. Considering the condition, the small garden, and the location, the listed price of £140,000 appears to be in the lower range of prices for similar properties in the area, given the data provided. However, without accurate square footage, a definitive price assessment is not possible. A full survey and accurate measurement of the property would be needed to provide a more complete evaluation.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
