Bond Wolfe offers five residential properties on behalf of Birmingham City Council

Bond Wolfe has a range of Birmingham City Council properties set to go under the hammer in its next property auction on Thursday, 18 May, but each comes with a development deadline.

Ron Darlington, consultant director of Bond Wolfe, said: “Once again, we are very proud to offer five opportunities to create new homes in our May auction.

“All these properties need some work but are a blank canvas for someone looking to create a family home.”

First up is 118 Wenlock Road, Aston, which is a two-bedroom, Victorian end terraced property which stands back from the road in a corner position with a fore garden and garage.

The accommodation includes an entrance porch, a hall, two reception rooms and a kitchen with no fittings. On the first floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom with no fittings. Outside are front, side and rear gardens with a garage to the rear.

The property is offered with a guide price* of £150,000+ on a new 125-year lease with the caveat that the purchaser must bring the house back into beneficial use as a single dwelling within 12 months.
