Large Birmingham property converted into seven flats in Bond Wolfe auction

Gurpreet Bassi, chief executive of Bond Wolfe, explained that the vacant freehold property also had  large external area that may be suitable for further development, subject to planning permission. 

Mr Bassi said: “This is a substantial detached property standing back from the road behind a front garden, with a passageway leading to plenty of off-road parking in a large external area at the rear. 

“There has been partial fire damage to the premises, resulting in the need for refurbishment and modernisation.” 

The current accommodation includes an entrance hall on the ground floor leading to Flat 1, with a reception room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom, and Flat 2 with a reception and bedroom, kitchen, shower room and toilet. 

On the same floor is Flat 6 with a hall, reception room, kitchen, bedroom and shower room, and Flat 7, with an open plan living room and kitchen, bedroom, shower room and rear entrance hall.
