Large two-bed duplex with allocated gated parking and new heating system..
Circa 1,037 sq ft duplex apartment with generous rooms
A spacious two-bedroom duplex apartment occupying a prominent corner position on Harborne High Street. Set within the purpose-built Corner Place development (c.2001), the flat offers generous living proportions — around 1,037 sq ft — with a large lounge/diner, private balcony and an upper-level master bedroom with ensuite. The gated development includes one allocated, numbered parking space and a video intercom entry for added security.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a roomy town-centre home with strong local amenities. The layout’s spiral staircase to the master bedroom and the curved-plan footprint give the apartment character and clear separation between living and sleeping spaces. A new heating system was installed in 2022 and is covered by a 10-year guarantee, reducing near-term maintenance uncertainty.
Buyers should note the material running costs: a service charge of £4,398.84 pa and an annual ground rent of £150, plus council tax at Band E. The building sits in an area recorded with higher-than-average local crime, and there is no private garden. The lease has approximately 121 years remaining and the property is offered with no upward chain.
Immediate benefits include rapid access to Harborne High Street’s shops, bars and restaurants, good public transport into Birmingham city centre, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Overall this is a well-sized urban apartment with clear rental or owner-occupier appeal, balanced by above-average service charges and town-centre considerations.
