Modern, low-maintenance flat ideal for first-time buyers seeking central convenience.
Allocated off-street parking space included
This one-bedroom third-floor apartment in the Latitude development offers compact, modern city-centre living with an allocated parking space — a rare find near Birmingham New Street. The open-plan living area has large windows and a Juliet balcony that bring in daylight; the integrated kitchen and contemporary bathroom keep upkeep straightforward. With 453 sq ft and a generously sized master bedroom, the layout suits a first-time buyer or young professional seeking easy access to transport, shops and nightlife.
Practical details support everyday urban life: lift access, secure entry, daytime concierge and off-street parking. The lease is long (about 114 years) and the EPC is C. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make remote working feasible. The development’s central position, strong rental demand and reported yields make the flat potentially attractive for future resale or letting.
Buyers should note clear drawbacks: the local area records very high crime levels and is classified as a deprived, student-heavy neighbourhood — expect significant night-time activity and footfall. Service charges are substantial (around £3,240 yearly) and there is a ground rent of £230, both of which affect overall running costs. The property is leasehold and compact in size, so consider storage and space needs carefully.
Overall, this is a practical city-centre starter home with good transport links and modern finishes. It suits first-time buyers wanting a low-maintenance base in central Birmingham, or investors aware of the higher service costs and local area profile.
