Step into a ready-to-move ground-floor apartment in the heart of Stourbridge. Located within a gated, converted period building completed in 2020, this one-bedroom flat offers secure, low-effort living with off-street communal parking and electric car charging—ideal for first-time buyers or someone seeking a lock-up-and-leave base close to shops and transport.
The accommodation is practical and modern: an open lounge, fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, double bedroom and a bathroom with heated towel rail. The long lease (245 years) and peppercorn ground rent reduce long-term buying costs, while a modest annual service charge of £1,600 covers communal upkeep and gated security.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly: heating is electric room heaters which can be more expensive than gas systems, the property is leasehold, and the local area records very high crime levels and wider area deprivation—factors that may affect insurance, security needs, and resale appeal. The apartment’s compact, traditional layout and modest overall size suit one or two occupants rather than those needing larger family space.
Overall this is a convenient, turnkey central flat with strong practical benefits (gated access, parking, EV charging, long lease). It’s best for buyers prioritising location, low maintenance and immediate occupation, but who understand the urban area’s security and cost implications.
