A well-presented first-floor one-bedroom apartment a short walk from Stourbridge town centre and local parks. The accommodation feels larger than its footprint thanks to a generous lounge with twin windows, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a sizeable store room that could double as a home study. The kitchen has fitted units and integrated cooking appliances; the property benefits from double glazing and an annually serviced gas central heating system.
Practical extras include off-street residents’ parking to the rear and communal green space with a fenced courtyard suitable for drying laundry. The flat has approximately 102 years remaining on the lease, an annual service charge of about £1,100 and a nominal ground rent of around £10. These tenure costs are important for budgeting and longer-term mortgage suitability.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into the Stourbridge market or an investor targeting steady local rental demand. It has been redecorated throughout and requires no immediate cosmetic work, though buyers should check service charge coverage and factor in future major works given the building age.
Noticeable negatives: the property sits in an area with a higher crime rate and significant local deprivation indicators. Prospective buyers should visit at different times and carry out standard checks on security, building management and long-term maintenance liabilities before committing.
