A Grade II listed character property with planning permission to convert into apartments is likely to attract investors when it comes up for sale at Bond Wolfe’s July auction.

36 Tenby Street, in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter, is listed with a guide price of £300,000+ in the livestreamed auction on Thursday 9 July.

Gurpreet Bassi, chief executive of Bond Wolfe, said: “This is a vacant freehold character property, with planning permission for conversion to three apartments.

“The property comprises a Grade II listed former commercial premises extending over three storeys plus a basement level.

“Conversion works have commenced, with the upper floors representing the most progressed areas of the building, where works have been completed to second fix.

“The property may also lend itself to conversion to a single three-bedroom townhouse, subject to planning.

“This is an excellent opportunity for a new owner to complete the conversion of an attractive property in one of Birmingham’s most popular areas.”

Full planning permission was granted in July 2023 for the conversion of the existing building into three one-bedroomed apartments with associated external alterations. Listed Building Consent was granted simultaneously

Birmingham City Council has confirmed that all pre-commencement and pre-occupation conditions relating to the planning permission and Listed Building Consent have been discharged.

The property is of brick construction beneath a pitch tiled roof and benefits from large sash windows providing good levels of natural light.

Tenby Street is in the heart of the Jewellery Quarter, one of Birmingham’s most distinctive and characterful mixed-use districts, renowned for its historic manufacturing heritage, independent retailers, jewellery businesses, cafés, restaurants, bars, galleries and creative workspaces.

It has become one of Birmingham’s most desirable residential destinations, offering a unique mix of period architecture, new residential development and high-quality leisure amenities.

The city centre is within walking distance of the property, with the Colmore Business District, Snow Hill and New Street train stations, Paradise, Brindley Place and the wider retail and leisure core all nearby.

Mr Bassi added: “Offers in excess of the guide price may be considered prior to the auction sale.”

The Tenby Street property will be among 173 lots featuring in Bond Wolfe’s next auction, which starts at 8.30am on Thursday 9 July. The auction will be livestreamed via Bond Wolfe’s website with remote bidding by proxy, telephone or internet.
