For sale in Birmingham: Kings Norton home hidden by overgrown trees set to be auctioned for £25k

A three bedroom home in Birmingham that's been left tucked under overgrown trees is set to be auctioned next month.

The family house at 95 Walkers Heath Road in Kings Norton will have a guide price* of just £25,000+ in the livestreamed auction on February 8.

While some serious pruning is needed outside, the family-sized house, which has a bathroom and toilet upstairs, comes with a valuable driveway and rear garage and could be a steal at just £25k. The Birmingham property is just one of 192 lots that are appearing in Bond Wolfe’s next auction, which will start at the earlier time of 8.30am on Thursday 8 February. 

What's been said about the house?

Gurpreet Bassi, chief executive at Bond Wolfe, said: “There are currently some overgrown trees that need to be cut back outside of this end-terraced home.

“Once that is done, the new owners will be presented with a property which stands back from the road with plenty of space on an L-shaped plot of land.

“This is likely to be a popular lot for first-time buyers with green fingers or for landlords looking to invest in extending their portfolios.” There is a porch, L-shaped reception room and dining kitchen on the ground floor, with a landing, three bedrooms, bathroom and toilet upstairs, plus gas central heating.

However, Mr Bassi added: “As well as some garden work, this property is also in need of renovation inside, reflected by its very attractive starting price.”
