A well-presented, first-floor two-bedroom maisonette offered as a 50% shared-ownership in a modern low-rise development. The flat provides a spacious lounge/diner with a front bay window, a fitted kitchen with integral oven and gas hob, one large double bedroom, a second single bedroom, a modern bathroom and two useful storage cupboards. The property measures approximately 688 sq ft and includes an allocated off-street parking bay.
This home suits a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry onto the property ladder or an investor looking for a straightforward rental unit. It sits about 1 mile from Northfield shopping centre with easy access to local schools, shops, and M42/M5 motorway links; public transport and excellent mobile signal make commuting and connectivity straightforward. The communal grounds are low-maintenance and the block was constructed post-2007 with double glazing fitted.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: this is a leasehold, shared-ownership property with a high annual service charge (£4,261.80) and a combined monthly rent/service charge figure noted at £355.15. Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow and local crime levels are above average; the wider area is classified as deprived. Prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves about lease terms, service charge budgeting and any responsibilities under shared-ownership before committing.
Overall this maisonette offers practical, well-proportioned accommodation at an entry-level price point, with clear benefits for someone prioritising affordability and transport links. It will particularly appeal to buyers prepared to accept shared-ownership conditions and higher communal costs in exchange for a lower purchase price and ready-to-move-in accommodation.
