This ground-floor two-bedroom flat in Edgbaston offers practical city-edge living with strong rental and first-time buyer appeal. The layout provides a separate living room, kitchen, and two double bedrooms across 673 sq ft, plus a garage en bloc and immediate access to Calthorpe Park and local transport.
The property is chain free and has 124 years remaining on the lease, making purchase straightforward. Electric underfloor heating and double glazing are in place, but the EPC is D and the flat requires some updating—suitable for buyers willing to refurbish to improve comfort and value.
Note the annual service charge is substantial (circa £3,000–£4,000 reported) and electric heating can mean higher running costs compared with gas. The local area shows higher crime levels and pockets of deprivation, so buyers should assess suitability for family living or long-term owner-occupation.
For first-time buyers or investors this flat represents a pragmatic entry into Edgbaston: immediate occupancy possible, straightforward lease position, and scope to add value through cosmetic refurbishment and energy improvements.
