This modern two-bedroom first-floor apartment in Blythe Valley offers ready-to-move-in accommodation with no upward chain. The open-plan lounge/kitchen flows onto a generous covered balcony, extending living space and giving pleasant views over well-kept communal grounds. Two allocated tandem parking spaces and a bike shed add practical convenience.
The principal bedroom includes a contemporary ensuite; the second double bedroom and main bathroom are bright and neutrally finished. The build is recent (2021) and the apartment benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal—useful for home working and streaming.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £1,500 and ground rent of £500 per year. Heating and hot water are electric (room heaters and electric boiler/utility), which may affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes. Local crime levels are above average in this area, and the location sits on the edge of suburban and countryside amenities with good motorway and transport links.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers seeking a modern, low-maintenance home or investors targeting strong local rental demand close to Solihull, NEC and Birmingham Airport. Buyers should budget for ongoing service charges, ground rent and potentially higher energy bills due to electric heating.
