- Leasehold with 110 years remaining

This one-bedroom ground-floor maisonette on Gospel Lane offers affordable entry into Acocks Green with practical living and strong transport links into Birmingham and Solihull. At about 402 sq ft, the layout includes a separate lounge, kitchen and a private rear garden with pleasant parkland views — rare for a property at this price point.
The home is leasehold with 110 years remaining, low ground rent (£50) and a below-average service charge (£280). Running costs are influenced by electric room heaters rather than a central heating system; double glazing is fitted but installation date is unknown. The property suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers willing to accept modest size and simple services.
Location is a key benefit: good local shops, regular buses and several Ofsted-rated good schools nearby. Buyers should note the surrounding area scores high on deprivation and local crime rates are elevated; prudent buyers will consider security and long-term resale factors. Some cosmetic updating and possible heating improvements would add value and comfort.
