Set high above Granville Street, this sixth-floor penthouse in the Skyline development delivers roomy two-bedroom, two-bath living across about 946 sq ft. The apartment’s full-length balcony, open-plan living/dining space and all-room balcony access make it rare for the area and well suited to city professionals or investors aiming for strong rental appeal.
The property is presented with modern fittings, an integrated kitchen, ensuite to the master and secure covered allocated parking. Residents benefit from lifts, concierge service and secure communal areas — practical features that support lettings and long-term occupancy. Double glazing and electric heating keep maintenance straightforward, though the heating system is electric rather than gas.
Important costs and local context: the flat is leasehold with c.138 years remaining. Annual service charge and ground rent are relatively high (approx. £2,666 service charge; £452 ground rent), and council tax is moderate. The wider neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan, multicultural student area with excellent broadband and mobile signal, but recorded crime levels are very high — factor this into rental pricing, insurance and tenant screening.
Overall this spacious, contemporary apartment offers clear investment potential in a central, well-connected part of Birmingham. It will suit buyers who value turnkey, city-centre living and can account for service charges and local safety considerations when calculating returns or long-term family use.
