A substantial Victorian semi-detached house in Moseley, Birmingham, is set to be auctioned by Bond Wolfe next week, presenting a unique opportunity for investors or developers. Located at 7 Oxford Road, the 11-bedroom property is being offered at a guide price of over £675,000.
Having served as a house in multiple occupation (HMO) for 35 years, the property is currently vacant and offers significant potential for redevelopment. James Rossiter, associate director at Bond Wolfe, highlights that the property could be transformed into individual flats, converted into a spacious family home, or further developed, subject to planning permissions.
Situated on the desirable Oxford Road, the home is within walking distance to the vibrant Moseley Village and benefits from the newly opened Moseley Village train station, providing easy access to Birmingham city centre.
The house features off-road parking, with a hardstanding at the front. Inside, the ground floor includes four bedrooms, a hallway leading to a cellar, shower and bathroom facilities, a boiler room, and a communal conservatory. The first floor houses four additional bedrooms, a kitchen, two shower rooms, and a store room, while the second floor comprises three bedrooms and another bathroom.
A large lawn spans the rear of the property. Modern amenities include gas central heating, double glazing, emergency lighting, fire doors, and main smoke alarms ensuring safety and comfort.
Rossiter adds that offers exceeding the guide price may be considered before the auction, which will take place at 8:30 am on Thursday, July 9. The auction will be livestreamed on Bond Wolfe’s website, allowing remote bidding by proxy, telephone, or online.
