Summary - Fountain Lofts, Alcester Street, Digbeth, Birmingham B12 0PY
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Turnkey city home close to Bullring and New Street Station.
Turnkey one-bedroom plus study, ready to move in or let immediately
Located in the heart of Digbeth’s regeneration, this one-bedroom lateral apartment offers turnkey city living with immediate rental potential. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from large industrial-style windows, integrated appliances and light wood-effect flooring for a clean, contemporary finish. Residents have access to a private courtyard and lift to all floors. A 10-year building warranty and a 999-year lease add long-term security for buyers.
This apartment suits investors or city professionals seeking a low-maintenance bolt-hole close to the Bullring and New Street Station. The compact layout includes a separate study, making efficient use of 549 sq ft for flexible working or storage. New-build specification and modern finishes reduce immediate refurbishment costs and allow quick occupation or letting.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the development sits in an area with higher crime and marked deprivation indicators, and broadband speeds are reported as very slow. Heating is electric with room heaters rather than a gas central system, which may increase running costs. While ground rent is advertised as nil and the lease is long, extra fees (leasehold packs, admin) may apply at sale.
Overall this is a practical, contemporary one-bedroom suited to investors or first-time buyers who prioritise location, low initial refurbishment need and a ready-to-let property, provided they accept urban area constraints and potentially higher service or energy costs.
