A bright one-bedroom apartment on the popular Oaks development, offered with a long lease and allocated parking. The open-plan living room benefits from good natural light and a juliette balcony, creating a comfortable, low-maintenance home or rental unit within easy reach of the University of Birmingham, QE Hospital and local transport links.
Practical running costs are clear: a long lease (991 years remaining), annual service charge of £1,478.88 and ground rent of £100 per year. Heating is by gas boiler and radiators; the property sits in a modern block with a communal garden and off-street parking. Flooding risk is nil and mobile signal is excellent.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important for buyers: the area records very high crime levels and local broadband speeds are slow, which may affect working-from-home or streaming. Prospective buyers should confirm tenure details and all charges with their solicitor. The flat is well suited to first-time buyers, students or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-upkeep apartment close to major local employers and transport hubs.
Viewings are recommended for anyone wanting a compact, contemporary apartment with long lease security and straightforward service arrangements. Renovation potential is limited but interior redecoration could add personal value or rental appeal.
