An immaculately presented one-bedroom second-floor apartment with a remarkably long lease (2153 years) and no onward chain. The flat benefits from a brand new kitchen and bathroom, double glazing and newly installed electric heaters — ready to move into for those seeking a low-hassle starter home or buy-to-let. The property includes an en-bloc garage and resident/visitor parking, a real convenience in this central Kings Norton location close to Kings Norton Green and local bus routes.
The accommodation is compact: lounge, good-sized double bedroom and modern fitted kitchen. Photos suggest a generally fresh finish, though there are some minor cosmetic issues in the kitchen that may need attention. The flat is second-floor access via communal stairs and will suit buyers comfortable without a lift.
Practical costs and the local context are important here. The apartment is leasehold with a very low ground rent (£20 pa) but an above-average service charge (approx. £2,203 pa). Council tax is band A (very cheap). The surrounding area is described as very deprived with average crime levels, so buyers should balance the purchase price and long lease against local social factors and resale considerations.
This apartment is best for first-time buyers wanting a move-in-ready home close to amenities, or investors seeking a straightforward let with a long lease and a clear maintenance picture. Viewings will reveal whether the minor kitchen finishes require simple cosmetic work or are already addressed.
