Summary - Flat 5, 226, Leach Green Lane, Rednal B45 8DT
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Low-maintenance flat with garage and communal gardens, ideal for downsizers.
Long lease: 957 years remaining
This two-bedroom ground-floor flat offers a practical, low-maintenance home with a rare long lease (957 years). The living space is generous for the size—an airy lounge with a large window and a well-proportioned kitchen make everyday living comfortable. Both bedrooms are doubles and the bathroom is fully tiled, giving the flat immediate usability for downsizers or first-time buyers seeking straightforward accommodation.
Outside, residents benefit from maintained communal gardens and a garage, removing much outdoor upkeep and providing private parking. The property has double glazing and electric storage heating. At about 582 sq ft, the layout is traditional and efficient, but the flat is modest in overall footprint and will suit buyers looking to simplify rather than expand.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with a service charge of approximately £1,449 per year and ground rent listed as to be confirmed. The area is classified as very deprived with a local “hampered neighbourhoods” designation, so buyers should consider the wider social and economic context alongside the property’s convenience to local shops, buses and good primary schools.
The building dates from the 1950s–1960s and the interior appears sound, though buyers wanting modern heating or major energy-efficiency improvements should note the electric storage heaters. This is a solid, affordable option for someone seeking low-maintenance living with long lease security, but consider potential refurbishment and ongoing service charges when calculating costs.
