This two-bedroom, ground-floor maisonette offers a practical, low-maintenance home or buy-to-let in a popular Minworth location. The flat benefits from a private east-facing rear garden, a garage in a block and a spacious lounge/diner with a large bay window that fills the room with natural light. The fitted kitchen and shower-over-bath bathroom are tidy and usable, so the property is move-in ready for many buyers.
Important to note: the lease has approximately 48 years remaining. That short lease may limit mortgage options and could require a buyer to fund a lease extension. Heating is by electric storage heaters, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. The area records a higher crime rate than average, so buyers should satisfy themselves on security and insurance implications.
Practical positives include a low service charge (£144), cheap council tax banding, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — all useful for downsizers or those letting the property. The location is convenient for local shops, schools (including an Outstanding primary) and commuter links to Sutton Coldfield and the motorway network.
In short, this flat is a straightforward, ground-floor home with outside space and parking, sold with no onward chain. It will particularly suit downsizers seeking easy access and a small garden, or investors prepared to manage lease and heating considerations.
