A well-presented one-bedroom apartment in the Altitude development, set in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. The layout places kitchen and dining in a social space, and the main bedroom includes built-in storage. The property is chain free and comes with a long lease of 105 years, making it accessible to first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers.
Transport links are a clear strength: Jewellery Quarter rail station, multiple bus stops and easy access to Birmingham New Street and the A4540/Queensway provide straightforward commuting options. Local amenities and schools are within walking distance, and the property sits in an inner-city, multicultural neighbourhood popular with students and young professionals.
Practical points to note: the apartment uses electric heating and has an EPC rating of D, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The building’s inner-city location and surrounding student activity can bring periods of noise. Tenure is leasehold — 105 years remaining — so buyers should factor in service charges and ground rent when budgeting.
Overall this is a competitively priced, convenient one-bedroom apartment with good transport links and rental potential. It will suit a first-time buyer wanting a compact city base or an investor seeking a straightforward let, provided you accept the electric heating and typical inner-city activity.
