Oakmans are delighted to offer for sale this first-floor maisonette, occupying a quiet position tucked away within a peaceful residential cul-de-sac in Selly Oak.

Offering an excellent opportunity for buyers looking for a project, first home or rental investment, the property requires modernisation throughout but provides considerable scope for improvement and the potential to add value.

The property benefits from its own private side entrance, ample on-road parking and a low service charge, low ground rent and healthy lease, making it an attractive proposition for both owner-occupiers and investors.

A Fantastic Investment Opportunity

For investors, the property is particularly worthy of consideration. Selly Oak continues to benefit from strong rental demand, driven in large part by the presence of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham and the **University of Birmingham, both major local employers and institutions.

There is also clear potential to enhance the property through modernisation. Improvements such as updating the kitchen and bathroom, refreshing the décor and installing central heating could significantly improve the property's appeal, rental prospects and overall value.

The combination of a sought-after location, strong local rental market and scope for improvement makes this an exciting opportunity for an investor looking for a property where value can be added through refurbishment.

Ideal First-Time Purchase

The property would also make an excellent purchase for a first-time buyer looking to get a foothold onto the property ladder.

With the property requiring modernisation, a buyer has the opportunity to create a home to their own taste while purchasing in an established and highly convenient part of Birmingham. The absence of an onward chain also provides an additional benefit for prospective purchasers.

For those wanting somewhere to enjoy the outdoors, Selly Oak Park is close by. The park extends across more than 30 acres and provides open green space, mature trees, nature trails and walking routes.

The accommodation comprises a first-floor maisonette with a private side entrance, offering a blank canvas for modernisation.

The property requires refurbishment throughout and would suit a purchaser looking for a project with the ability to modernise and improve the accommodation to their own requirements.

Offered for sale without an onward chain — early viewing is highly recommended.
