Ideal first-time buy with long lease and allocated parking.
Long lease 128 years remaining
This first-floor, two-bedroom apartment in Brandwood Crescent offers an accessible entry into Kings Norton living. At about 507 sq ft it suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-maintenance home with a long lease (128 years) and no onward chain. The layout includes a lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and a bathroom with shower. Double glazing, gas-fired central heating and allocated off‑street parking add to everyday convenience.
Service and ownership costs are clear: an annual service charge of approximately £1,704 and ground rent of £300. Council tax is described as cheap, but broadband speeds are average and the wider area has higher deprivation indicators; crime levels are average. The apartment block is modern (constructed 2003–2006) with a well-maintained red-brick exterior and standard ceiling heights.
Local amenities suit family and commuter lifestyles. Nearby schools include several rated Good and two outstanding selective secondaries; local shops, cafes, parks and regular bus routes are within easy reach. For buyers prioritising location, ease of access and straightforward maintenance, this property presents a practical, affordable option.
Buyers should note the property’s compact internal size — 507 sq ft — which limits storage and living space compared with larger flats. The apartment appears well-kept but offers modest finishes; buyers who want bespoke or higher-end fittings should budget for updating.
