A spacious ground-floor one-bedroom apartment set in a mid-century block on Coppice Road, offering practical living and good rental potential. The accommodation includes a large lounge/dining room with a walk-in bay window, a double bedroom, a fitted kitchen and a tiled bathroom. A single garage in a nearby block and communal lawned gardens add useful outdoor and storage space.
The property has a very long lease (987 years), low ground rent (£20) and council tax band A, making it cost-effective for a first-time buyer or investor. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and the apartment presents a sound, traditional layout that would repay cosmetic updating.
Buyers should note the average annual service charge of around £1,960 and an EPC rating of E. The local area is classed as very deprived with above-average crime statistics, which may affect appeal and rental values. There is step-free access via a ramp and a secure communal entry system, but the building’s cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so some thermal improvement may be advisable.
Offered with no upward chain and located close to local schools, places of worship and transport links into central Moseley and Birmingham, this flat suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry or investors looking for a straightforward let with immediate occupancy.
