Summary - Limberlost Close, Birmingham B20 2NU
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Small, cash-friendly purchase near green space and local schools.
Approximately 434 sq ft one-bedroom first-floor flat
This compact one-bedroom first-floor flat offers an affordable entry into Birmingham property ownership or a low-cost buy‑to‑let option. The purpose-built mid-20th-century block sits back from the road with a communal car park and mature trees, giving a pleasant treed outlook rather than a direct street view. Internal space is limited at about 434 sq ft, laid out as entrance hall, living room, kitchen, bedroom with built-in wardrobe, shower room and a small storage cupboard.
The apartment is in basic, dated condition and will suit someone prepared to carry out light modernisation or refresh works to bring it up to current standards. Practical positives include off-street parking, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal; there is no flooding risk. Local amenities, bus links and several well-regarded schools lie within reach, and nearby green space (Perry Hall Park area) is a short distance away.
Important practical constraints affect this purchase: the lease has approximately 46 years remaining and lenders may refuse mortgages on this property, so it is a cash-purchase requirement for many buyers. Service charge and ground rent are modest (£1,200pa service charge; £13 ground rent), but the neighbourhood records above-average crime levels and is a very deprived area, which buyers should weigh against the low purchase price and rental potential.
Suitability: best for a cash buyer, a hands-on investor willing to refurbish, or a first-time buyer who understands short-lease implications and plans to extend or renegotiate the lease before financing. The flat’s size and layout make it most practical for a single occupant or as a rental studio-style unit.
