Description
Essence is delighted to present this exceptional investment opportunity within a sought-after gated residential development in Edgbaston.
Offered for sale strictly with the tenant in situ, this substantial townhouse provides immediate rental income of £1,300 per calendar month (£15,600 per annum) from completion, making it an ideal acquisition for investors seeking a ready-made addition to their portfolio.
Added Perks | Recent Works:

Unlike many investment properties currently available, this is a genuine family home, offering investors the benefit of an established family tenancy within a highly desirable residential setting. The current tenants have only recently moved into the property and intend to make it their home, providing both immediate income and long-term stability for the incoming owner.
Arranged over four levels, the property offers spacious and versatile accommodation throughout. The ground floor comprises an entrance hallway, integral garage and a generous utility room, providing excellent practicality and storage. The first floor features a spacious living room, separate fitted kitchen and guest WC, whilst the second floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms (two with fitted storage) and a family bathroom.
A spiral staircase leads to a substantial loft room with Velux-style windows and excellent natural light. This versatile space provides flexibility for a variety of uses including a home office, hobby room, guest accommodation or occasional bedroom, further enhancing the property's appeal to family occupiers.
The development itself remains one of the area's key attractions, offering residents the security and exclusivity of gated living whilst maintaining excellent connectivity. Situated just off Pershore Road and opposite the historic Tally Ho grounds, the property enjoys convenient access to Edgbaston Village, Birmingham City Centre, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, the University of Birmingham and a wealth of local amenities.
From an investment perspective, opportunities of this nature are increasingly difficult to find. The combination of a house rather than an apartment, a secure gated setting, established family tenants, immediate rental income and strong long-term rental demand creates a compelling proposition for investors seeking stable returns and future growth potential.
