Set within bustling Edgbaston on Hagley Road, this spacious one-bedroom second-floor flat offers generous rooms, a private balcony and an allocated parking space — all with no onward chain for a straightforward purchase. The open-plan living and dining area benefits from large windows and natural light; the bedroom is notably large and the kitchen provides ample storage. The property is best suited to someone happy to carry out cosmetic updates and personalise the space.
Important practical facts are clear: the flat is leasehold with 62 years remaining, which may limit mortgage options and affect resale value. Service charge and ground rent are notable ongoing costs (approx. £2,400 pa service charge; £175 pa ground rent). Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow and local crime rates are high, which should be considered by prospective residents.
This apartment will appeal to a first-time buyer seeking value in a well-connected inner-city location, or an investor prepared to refurbish and rent in a student‑dominated area. Transport links are a strong selling point — a bus stop directly outside gives quick access to the city centre — and allocated parking is a practical bonus in this part of Birmingham.
Viewers should note the property needs renovation: cosmetic works, possible kitchen refresh and general updating are required. For buyers able to manage those works, the flat offers immediate occupation, a clear legal chain, and scope to increase comfort or rental income once improved.
