A three bedroom end terraced house in the Coalpool area of Walsall, WS3. Billed as an investment property, however, there is only one photo showing the external front. The listing states that the ground floor bathroom has been refitted. I would advise a viewing as soon as possible to check out the property internally, after all, that’s what viewings are for, right? On the face of it the current asking price seems like a bit of a bargain being at least £5000 lower than the usual asking price for a property of this type in the area. So, it makes me ask the question, “What’s wrong with it?” Maybe nothing, but the low price and the lack of photos tends me to lean toward that it may need some upgrading. There are many schools locally and many are within a mile distance including the Elmwood School and The Croft Academy. Healthcare amenities eg doctors, dentists etc are also nearby. Transport services are very good with bus routes and major road networks adjacent lending easy access to Walsall, Bloxwich, Pelsall and Brownhills town centres. There is double glazing, gas central heating.

A one bedroom semi detached house on a prestigious and popular estate in the Coalpool area in Walsall. Since major redevelopment in the area, the area’s profile has now been raised substantially making it a popular choice for rental. Unfortunately, though the property is billed as “well presented”, the agent has only provide one photo of the external. Therefore, I have absolutely no idea if the property is of a lettable standard. I would urge a viewing on this one A-S-A-P. My personal experience with this estate is that rentals go like “Hot Cakes”! The location benefits from being within easy reach of all the major road networks, services and other amenities lending easy access to Walsall, Bloxwich, Pelsall, Willenhall town centres.

A two bedroom end terraced house in the heart of the Beechdale estate in Walsall. The area is now an up and coming area due to some major redevelopment over the last decade, which has helped in raising the area’s profile. Look at the flares on this! Unfortunately, the property is perpetually stuck in the 70s so the décor really needs to be changed including ripping out that very sexy fireplace! Other additional upgrades would include the flooring and modernising the kitchen and bathroom.  The rear garden is also in need of attention. The location benefits from being within easy reach of the Reedswood Retail Park and junction 10 of the M6 and in the vicinity of other major transport routes leading to Walsall, Willenhall and Bloxwich town centres. There is also a wide selection of schools within a mile or so radius including the Mirus Academy.

A three bedroom semi detached house the Wednesbury area of Walsall, WS10. Surprisingly, the listing doesn’t state that the property requires modernisation, when it clearly does! Additionally, there are no photos of the bedrooms and the bathroom, so a viewing is absolutely essential. “Wiggle room” is the key phrase here and the seller may be flexible on the price since upgrading is an absolute necessity. Within a mile there are a good selection of education facilities including The Stuart Bathurst School of Performing Arts and The Wood Green Academy. There are also many healthcare, food stores and leisure facilities available nearby. Transport services are very good with bus routes and major road networks adjacent lending easy access to Walsall, Darlaston, Wednesbury, Willenhall and Wolverhampton town centres. There is double glazing, gas central heating, but as to whether this is full or partial is unclear. However, there is off-road parking.
