This one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Arthur Place sits in the Westgate development, a modern block close to Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter amenities and transport links. The open-plan living/kitchen measures around 453 sq ft, with laminate floors, integrated appliances and double glazing — a straightforward, low-maintenance city home or rental unit.
Practical features include a secure entry system, a courtyard-facing aspect, and parking available at extra cost. The property uses electric room heaters and has an average-sized service charge of £2,000 per year and a small ground rent of £50 — factors to include in running-cost calculations.
Important: the lease has 80 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders are likely to refuse lending on leases of this length, so buyers should be prepared to fund purchase with cash or seek specialist lending. Crime levels in the area are above average; this is a central, lively neighbourhood popular with students and professionals.
Suitability: the flat will suit cash buyers and investors targeting student or city-centre lets, or a first-time buyer who can arrange non-standard finance. It offers straightforward rental potential and low maintenance, but buyers must weigh the lease length and ongoing service charges before proceeding.
