Set within the restored Reliance Works, this 1,236 sq ft two-bedroom, two-bath apartment blends Georgian character with modern interiors. Tall windows, exposed brick and high ceilings give an airy, open-plan living space ideal for entertaining or home working. The scheme retains listed features while offering newly renovated fixtures and integrated kitchen appliances.
Practical strengths include a 999-year lease, chain-free sale and two bathrooms — rare for city-centre conversions — plus a private courtyard and good mobile signal. Its location in the Jewellery Quarter places cafes, specialist shops and transport links on the doorstep, appealing to buyers who want city living with historic character.
Important considerations: Reliance Works is Grade II listed, which can restrict alterations and add complexity to approvals and maintenance. The local area records higher-than-average crime and is classified as deprived; broadband speeds are reported very slow. Annual service charges are significant (circa £1,455 average) and council tax banding is high, all of which should be factored into running costs.
This apartment suits buyers seeking a distinctive period conversion with generous internal space and modern finishes — whether as a principal residence or a long-term investment. Those prioritising fast broadband, low running costs or freedom to make structural changes should review restrictions and service commitments before proceeding.
