Summary - Flat 5, 79a, Lawrence Lane, CRADLEY HEATH B64 6ET
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Smartly refurbished two-bedroom with private garden and excellent transport links — ideal starter home.
Recently refurbished kitchen and bathroom, ready to move in
Quietly tucked off Lawrence Lane, this recently refurbished two-bedroom ground-floor flat offers single-floor living and a private front garden — good for first-time buyers or downsizers wanting move-in readiness. The interior benefits from a modern kitchen with integrated oven and induction hob, a newly fitted bathroom with waterfall shower, gas central heating and double glazing, giving practical comfort from day one.
Set within a converted Victorian house, rooms feel airy thanks to high ceilings and period features such as a fireplace and bay window. The layout is compact at around 571 sq ft but well planned: a bright living room, two bedrooms and a sensible kitchen footprint make this an efficient starter home with low council tax and fast broadband.
Be clear on the material negatives: the property is leasehold with around 125–127 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,200 and solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation. The area is classified as very deprived with higher local crime levels, which may concern some buyers. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and could be less efficient than modern units.
Transport and amenities are strong draws: two nearby train stations, excellent bus links and close proximity to Merry Hill shopping centre, schools with Good Ofsted ratings and a wide range of local services. For buyers prepared to accept the neighbourhood challenges, this is a low-maintenance, well-presented entry-level home with immediate rental or owner-occupier potential.
