Low-maintenance one-bed with parking and long lease, near transport links.
Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment, modern build (2003–2006)
A compact ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in a modern purpose-built block, well suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking low-maintenance living. The open-plan lounge and kitchen, double-glazed windows and gas central heating provide everyday comfort. Allocated off-street parking and a long lease (105 years) are practical ownership benefits.
The location offers excellent transport links with nearby West Midlands Metro and bus routes, plus local shops, market amenities and several well-rated primary and secondary schools within walking distance. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or streaming.
Be aware this property sits in a very deprived neighbourhood with a high local crime rate; buyers should consider security and insurance implications. The apartment is modest in size with tight internal circulation, and service charges average £1,296 per year with a small ground rent of £100. As a leasehold flat built 2003–2006, it is modern but will need routine maintenance over time rather than major refurbishment.
