The apartment is well maintained and ready to move into, with a balcony off the lounge, private garden and a garage — useful extras that aren’t always included with flats.
Lease details are favourable: 125 years remaining, a very low ground rent of £16 pa and the property is being sold chain free. The apartment benefits from double glazing and a compact, functional layout across about 647 sq ft. Nearby green space at Sandwell Valley and a mix of local amenities make this a convenient location for commuters and young families.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is by electric storage heaters, the building’s cavity walls are likely uninsulated (as built) and the service charge is approximately £2,388 annually (£597 quarterly). These factors affect ongoing costs and energy efficiency and may require upgrades if you plan longer-term comfort or let at higher rents.
Overall this is a practical, well-located property for a first-time buyer or investor seeking straightforward accommodation with low council tax and flexible transport links. The garage, private garden and extended lease add clear value, while budget for electric heating running costs and potential insulation improvements when assessing affordability.
