Summary - 54 WELLHEAD LANE BIRMINGHAM B42 2SY
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
New-build one-bed with great rail links and low share prices.
Shared Ownership available 10–75% shares
A one-bedroom new-build apartment in Perry Barr Village, offered through Shared Ownership, is aimed squarely at first-time buyers wanting an affordable step onto the ladder. The development places Perry Barr station directly opposite, making the 13-minute rail commute to Birmingham New Street a real convenience. Many apartments include private balconies and integrated kitchen appliances; landscaped communal grounds include a central green, children's play area and a basketball court.
This is an economical route into homeownership: shares from 10–75% with example pricing showing a 40% share at £60,400 (full market value £151,000). Monthly costs include rent on the unsold share and an average service charge (listed here at £2,232 annually). Apartments are finished to a contemporary specification and designed with sustainable features.
Be clear about the local context. The area is described as very deprived with a very high local crime rate; that may affect resale or rental prospects and daily comfort for some buyers. Leasehold terms are being compiled and additional fees (lease packs, legal costs) and qualification criteria for Shared Ownership will apply. Council tax band is not provided.
For buyers prioritising transport links and a low deposit route into ownership, this development offers genuine value. For those seeking quiet, high‑end neighbourhoods or fully private ownership without service charges, this location and tenure may be less suitable.
