A bright one-double-bedroom upper-floor apartment offered chain-free and positioned within easy walking distance of Sutton Coldfield town centre, the train station, Good Hope Hospital and Sutton Park. The flat has a refitted modern kitchen, a refitted bathroom with electric shower over the bath and a private balcony off the living room — practical features for a first home or rental unit.
The apartment is compact (about 410 sq ft) and economical to buy at £115,000 with a fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for working from home. There is communal residents’ parking to the rear and the building appears well maintained externally. Local amenities, good schools nearby and strong transport links add to the appeal for both first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors.
There are a few material considerations to note: the property is leasehold with 86 years remaining, an average service charge of around £1,750 and a ground rent of £150, which will affect running costs and mortgage options. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than a central system, and the overall internal space is small — best suited to single occupants or couples.
Viewings are recommended to assess space and storage in person. For buyers seeking a well-located, low-maintenance one-bedroom with immediate occupation potential and rental appeal, this presents clear value; buyers requiring longer lease terms or gas central heating should factor in potential additional costs.
