An affordable first-step into Solihull living, this well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment is offered either as a 25% shared ownership share or to buy outright. The compact layout makes daily living easy to manage, with a lounge-diner, separate kitchen, two fitted bedrooms and one bathroom. An allocated off-street parking space adds convenience in a central Shirley location close to shops, bus links and local schools.
The shared ownership option reduces the initial outlay: a 25% share is available with a current rent on the remaining 75% of £528.37 pcm (this includes ground rent, service charge and building insurance). The flat sits in a purpose-built development (circa 2007–2011), has double glazing and gas central heating to radiators, and approximately 397 sq ft of living space — suitable for a single buyer or couple wanting low-maintenance accommodation.
Buyers should note practical limitations: the apartment is small, with only one bathroom and no private garden, and the lease has about 83 years remaining. The area records very high crime levels locally — prospective purchasers should factor this into their decision and research local safety measures. Mobile reception is reported as limited, although high broadband speeds are potentially achievable in the postcode area.
Overall this property will appeal to first-time buyers seeking an economical route into a desirable postal area, or to investors looking for an easy-to-manage let. It offers clear affordability advantages but comes with size, lease and local safety considerations that buyers must accept or address.
