This spacious upper-floor two-bedroom apartment offers straightforward living for first-time buyers or investors looking for a manageable city-base in Netherton. The layout includes a comfortable lounge, fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom; double glazing and communal grounds add practical value.
The flat is offered with no upward chain and a long lease (104 years remaining), making the purchase process simpler. Local convenience is strong — Netherton High Street, shops and bus links are within easy walking distance, and the building sits near schools and planned transport improvements.
Buyers should note the property is modest in size (about 571 sq ft) and is heated by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than central gas heating. The service charge and buildings insurance currently total around £1,272 per year and the area records above-average crime and high local deprivation; these are important for both occupiers and investors to factor into budgeting and long-term plans.
The apartment has been maintained to a reasonable standard but offers scope to update kitchen or bathroom fittings and improve energy performance (cavity walls assumed uninsulated). For first-time buyers this is a clean, ready-to-move-in option with clear potential to personalise; for investors it presents a lettable two-bedroom in a well-connected part of Dudley.
