There’s a house up for auction. Its guide price seems surprisingly low: £450,000. It’s near Birmingham’s fancy Calthorpe estate. Houses there usually cost millions.

This place needs work though. It lacks a roof and inside features. The listing calls it a “mere shell.”

It is on Rightmove, a property website. They see it as an opportunity. It suits a “discerning” buyer. Photos show the building’s frame. It stands behind barriers on Westfield Road. The location is in Edgbaston.

The old house had permission to be torn down. This happened in September 2018. That original house had six bedrooms. The new owner faces a project.

The listing mentions Edgbaston’s good reputation. The property sits near the city. It’s a redevelopment opportunity. The plot is about half an acre big. It features a 37-meter street frontage.

The property is just a shell now. It has no roof or interior. The old house was three stories. It took up around 6,000 sq ft. It offers an amazing chance for development. Auctioneers haven’t checked the place.

No viewings are currently scheduled. The old home had two sitting rooms. Also included were a snug and kitchen, six bedrooms and two bathrooms. They got demolition approval September 14, 2018. Potential buyers should check the application’s status.

The online auction happens February 26 at 6 PM.
