At about 415 sq ft, the layout suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking low-maintenance suburban accommodation with good transport links to the M42, A45 and Birmingham International station.
The home is immaculately presented throughout with contemporary flooring, UPVC double-glazed French doors and an open-plan kitchen/lounge. Practical features include two built-in storage cupboards in the hallway, intercom entry and communal outdoor space with clothes-drying area. The property sits on a long lease of 146 years, with service charges and ground rent combined at approximately £145pcm.
Buyers should note the property uses electric room heaters rather than a gas central system, which can affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The flat is small in overall size, so purchasers wanting spacious rooms should view to assess fit. Council Tax is in Band A, making local running costs relatively low.
With an estimated rental yield around 6.6%, the apartment presents clear investment potential in a sought-after Solihull suburb, while also functioning well as an affordable first home. The building dates from the 1980s and benefits from fast broadband availability and average local crime and amenities nearby, including good-rated local schools and green spaces.
