This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Garrard Gardens offers an accessible, chain-free entry into Sutton Coldfield’s town-centre market. The flat is presented in good decorative order with a modern refitted kitchen and bathroom, double glazing, and views over well-kept communal gardens — an attractive package for a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor.
Practical features include a private entrance hall, a comfortable lounge, built-in bedroom storage and resident parking nearby. The long lease (127 years) reduces a common leasehold worry, and excellent local schools plus a five-minute walk to the town centre add everyday convenience.
Buyers should be aware of several material points: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £3,432, electric storage heating (higher running costs than gas), double glazing fitted before 2002, and a medium flood risk. The immediate area data also records very high crime and local deprivation indicators — factors to research further and factor into insurance and security decisions.
Overall this is a compact, well-presented apartment with clear rental or owner-occupier appeal thanks to location and condition. It suits someone wanting low-stairs living close to transport links and amenities, who understands maintenance and running-cost implications of electric heating and the ongoing service charge commitments.
