A newly refurbished one-bedroom apartment on the second floor overlooking St Paul’s Square. At around 388 sq ft it’s compact but thoughtfully finished with a modern kitchen, refitted shower room and bright windows that bring light into the living and sleeping spaces. The building has a communal entrance with lift and stair access.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer wanting a central Jewellery Quarter address or an investor targeting city-centre lets close to Snow Hill and New Street stations. The area is lively and well served by independent cafés, bars and amenities, and the square itself provides a pleasant green outlook from the windows.
Buyers should note practical considerations: remaining lease is approximately 87–88 years, annual service charge averages about £2,200 and ground rent is £10. Heating is via electric room heaters (no communal gas) and broadband speeds are reported slow. The neighbourhood is classified as a cosmopolitan, multicultural student area and local crime levels are high — factors that can affect living experience and lettability.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, city-centre flat with clear potential for someone wanting an entry into the Jewellery Quarter or a straightforward rental opportunity. Viewing is recommended to assess space and condition in person and to confirm suitability for your plans.
