Summary - NEWTON CHAMBERS, 43 FLAT 8 CANNON STREET BIRMINGHAM B2 5EE
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Large two‑bed in Grade II listed Newton Chambers, five minutes to New Street Station..
Over 1,045 sqft of living space, unusually large for city centre apartment
A substantial two-bedroom apartment occupying over 1,045 sqft in the Grade II listed Newton Chambers, built with striking Victorian features including full‑length bay windows and high ceilings. The layout includes a large lounge, separate kitchen and an additional reception room — flexible space well suited to rental conversion or reconfiguration for owner-occupation. Located in the heart of the city, New Street and Snow Hill stations are within a five‑minute walk, supporting commuter demand and tenant interest.
This unit is offered with the option to buy with a tenant in situ, showing a potential gross yield of around 6% for investors. The apartment benefits from lift access and generous room proportions that stand out in the city centre market. There is clear potential to increase rental value through modernisation and improved energy provision.
Important practical considerations: the building’s listed status means alterations will be restricted and may need consent. Heating is by electric room heaters, broadband speeds are very slow, and the local area records very high crime levels — factors that will affect some buyers and rental pricing. Service charge (£3,068pa approx.), ground rent (£100pa approx.) and council tax (above average) apply, and the lease has about 99 years remaining.
For investors seeking central, characterful stock with immediate rental income, or buyers wanting a spacious period apartment to personalise, this property offers rare scale in Birmingham city centre — provided you factor in listed‑building constraints and ongoing service costs.
