This well-lit one-bedroom apartment offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home close to Edgbaston Reservoir and the city centre. The open-plan living area with fitted kitchen and large windows gives a bright, usable space for everyday living or rental. An allocated parking space and secure entry add practical convenience.
The property is leasehold (service charge £738 pa; ground rent £50 pa) and heated by electric storage heaters — running costs can be higher than gas alternatives. The flat is compact at about 446 sq ft, so it suits a single occupant, couple or investor targeting strong local rental demand rather than a family needing extra space.
Location is a major benefit: waterside walks, cafés, shops and city transport links are within easy reach. Be upfront that the local area scores high for crime and shows signs of deprivation; this affects long-term character and could influence suitability for some buyers or mortgage/insurance considerations. Overall, the apartment is a practical entry-point purchase or buy-to-let with simple upkeep and solid location advantages.
