Set on the ground floor of a 1960s Roxboro House development, this one-bedroom apartment offers easy, step-free access and practical living for a first-time buyer or investor. The accommodation extends to about 449 sq ft and includes a fitted kitchen, spacious lounge, double bedroom, modern shower room and a useful storage cupboard. The building benefits from a secure entry system, communal car park, communal garden and gas central heating.
A significant long-lease benefit: a new 150-year lease will be granted on completion, there is no ground rent, and the annual service charge is £1,304. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the flat well-suited to commuters and home workers; Redditch town centre and the train station are within walking distance.
Be clear on the local context: the wider area is classified as a transitional neighbourhood with higher crime levels and relative deprivation. The block dates from 1967–1975, so communal areas and external fabric reflect that era and may require ongoing maintenance. Council tax is very low, and there is no flood risk recorded.
This property is a practical, budget-friendly option for someone prioritising location and transport links over period charm. It works for a first-time buyer seeking a manageable home or an investor targeting rental demand near the station. Buyers should factor in the service charge and the urban area characteristics when deciding to view.
