A spacious one-bedroom flat on Hollywell Road offering entry-level ownership or buy-to-let potential. The property benefits from a long lease (117 years remaining), mains gas central heating and double glazing, and sits close to local shops and major road links (A45, M42/M6) for easy commuting to Birmingham, Solihull and the NEC.
Internally the accommodation includes a large lounge, double bedroom, separate kitchen and bathroom. The overall footprint is generous for a one-bed (approx. 786 sq ft listed), giving scope to reorganise or improve the layout if desired. A small front and modest rear garden provide basic outdoor space — useful for drying clothes or a container garden.
Buyers should note material local factors: the area shows very high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, which will affect resale and rental demand. The property appears to be in fair structural condition for its 1950s build but will benefit from cosmetic modernisation and careful checking of services and fittings before purchase. Leasehold tenure and potential additional fees (lease packs, management) apply.
This flat suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable home with good transport links, or investors willing to refurbish to improve rental yield. Viewings will show the accommodation’s true potential and reveal any works required to reach modern standards.
