We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

Situation Arthur Road is an exclusive residential address in the heart of Edgbaston, within easy reach of Birmingham City Centre which lies just over a mile to the north.
Five Ways railway station is around half a mile away and provides direct access to Birmingham New Street Station which is just one stop down the line.
Description 4 Arthur Road is an impressive and imposing Victorian detached property which boasts striking Gothic-styled architecture.
The property currently measures approximately 7,771 sq ft (722 sq m) in total, with the majority of accommodation set over three main storeys, plus a cellar and outbuildings.
In 2025 planning permission was granted to change the former Commercial, Business and Service use to a 7 bedroomed residential dwelling house.
Full details of the planning consent are available on request, or via the Birmingham City Council planning portal, application ref: 2025/05157/pa.
As well as being an ideal opportunity to create a remarkable family home, the property also offers exciting potential for a number of alternative uses, subject to any necessary consents.
Internally the property has been partially stripped in preparation for redevelopment, and whilst it requires complete and comprehensive refurbishment throughout there are still some superb original features in place.
The room proportions and ceiling heights befit a house of this grandeur, and it is clear to see the potential that this exceptional property has to offer.
Outside The building itself sits towards the back of the plot with a driveway and parking area currently to the right hand side.
The main grounds therefore stand in front of the building, taking advantage of the sunny southerly aspect. To the rear is a substantial courtyard area which leads to the detached outbuildings.
We have measured the total plot to be in the order of 0.52 acre. General Information Tenure: The property is Freehold.
