This well-presented two-bedroom apartment offers low-maintenance living in a convenient Birmingham location, close to shops and public transport. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and balcony bring natural light to the 613 sq ft layout, with double glazing and gas central heating throughout. An allocated off-street parking space and long lease (c. 991 years) add practical value for owner-occupiers.
The building is modern and the flat is ready to move into, making it suitable for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward management. Service charge (£1,643 pa) and ground rent (£150 pa) are explicit ongoing costs to factor into affordability calculations. Council tax band is low, which helps running costs.
Be aware the property sits in an area classed as deprived with higher-than-average local crime rates; this is reflected in local statistics and should be considered when assessing suitability. The apartment itself is small in overall size, so buyers wanting generous living space should view with that in mind.
Nearby schools include several rated Outstanding and Good, while excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support remote working. Viewing is recommended to assess space and neighbourhood fit in person.
