The flat benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, and is well placed for public transport, local shops and quick routes into Birmingham city centre, Solihull and the airport — convenient for commuters. Council Tax band A keeps running costs low. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and presents a blank canvas for modest updating or cosmetic improvement.
