Set on the third floor of the Octahedron development, this two-bedroom apartment offers compact, modern city-centre living with secure gated parking and no onward chain. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from a large floor-to-ceiling window that brings good natural light into the main living space.
Practical features include allocated off-street parking in a secure gated car park, lift access, a building manager and an EWS1 approval. The property is leasehold with around 108–109 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £3,135 and a modest ground rent of £250.
This home suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located apartment in the Jewellery Quarter. Be aware the overall footprint is small (approx. 533 sq ft) and heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can increase running costs. The surrounding area is a cosmopolitan, student neighbourhood and records higher-than-average crime levels, which may affect long-term rental demand or personal priorities.
Internally the finish is modern with integrated kitchen appliances and straightforward accommodation: two double bedrooms, an airing/storage cupboard and a three-piece bathroom. No private outdoor space is included; communal security and parking are key amenity positives for buyers wanting city living with vehicle convenience.
