A well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment in Dickens Heath offering independent access, single garage en bloc and driveway. The long lease (approx. 986 years) and low annual service charge make this a straightforward purchase with no upward chain.
The living room and two good-size bedrooms provide comfortable, adaptable space for a first-time buyer or small household. Local facilities include a village high street, good primary schools, canal walks and convenient road and rail links to Solihull and Birmingham. Broadband capacity in the area can be very fast, though actual speeds at the property may vary.
Practical points to note: there is a single bathroom only, and the area records above-average local crime levels. The property reflects modern construction from the late 1990s/early 2000s and appears generally well maintained, but buyers should verify fixtures, services and title details through their own surveys and solicitors.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking a low-maintenance starter home or a buy-to-let with long lease security and modest running costs, positioned in a desirable, affluent village setting with good transport links.
