Reservoir Road, Birmingham, B29

Located on the ever-popular Reservoir Road in Selly Oak, this beautifully presented two-bedroom semi-detached property with a further loft space with staircase, offers a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers, families and investors alike. Presented in excellent condition throughout, the property is genuinely turn-key, requiring no significant work or investment from the incoming purchaser.

The property enjoys an enviable position within Selly Oak, close to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham and the University of Birmingham, whilst also being within easy reach of the highly regarded neighbouring suburbs of Harborne, Stirchley and Bournville. With Birmingham City Centre only a short commute away, the location offers an excellent balance of suburban living and city accessibility.

The property itself immediately benefits from a private driveway, providing valuable off-road parking. The home has also recently had its double glazing replaced and benefits from central heating.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a bright and inviting entrance hallway, leading into a spacious reception room. The reception room benefits from attractive bay windows, providing additional floor space and allowing plenty of natural light into the room. The property has been thoughtfully decorated throughout in neutral and appealing tones, creating a modern and versatile home ready for the new owner to move straight into.

One of the property's particularly appealing features is the way in which the available space has been efficiently utilised.

This is complemented by further storage provisions throughout the property.

Outside, the property boasts a beautifully landscaped south-facing rear garden. The southerly aspect provides excellent natural sunlight throughout the day, whilst the established landscaping and private nature of the garden create an attractive and peaceful outdoor space. Whether entertaining, relaxing or enjoying family life, the garden provides an excellent extension of the living accommodation.

To the first floor are two bedrooms, providing comfortable accommodation for a family or those requiring additional rooms for guests, working from home or hobbies.

The property also benefits from stair-accessed loft space, currently utilised for storage and offering further potential for the incoming owner to use as they see fit, subject to any necessary permissions and regulations. Additional storage is available within the eaves.
