This compact two-bedroom first-floor apartment sits within easy walking distance of Tamworth town centre and frequent rail and bus links to Birmingham and London, making it practical for commuters and town-centre living. The flat offers a light living room with balcony, an efficient kitchen, two double bedrooms with built-in storage, allocated off-street parking and mains gas central heating.
The current lease shows 68 years remaining but will be extended to 125 years on completion. Buyers should note lenders sometimes refuse mortgages on flats with shorter leases until the extension is completed; confirm mortgage eligibility early. Service charge and ground rent are charged six-monthly (service charge £428.90; ground rent £37.50).
At about 487 sq ft, the apartment is best suited to first-time buyers, commuters or investors seeking a town-centre let. The interior is modern and well-maintained, with UPVC double glazing and a functional layout, but the property is small and may feel tight for those needing more living space. The area offers good local amenities and schools rated Good, though local crime levels are reported as high.
Suitable buyers will value the location and transport links, the convenience of allocated parking and the forthcoming lease extension. Practical considerations include the apartment’s compact size, the six-monthly service charge, and potential mortgage constraints until the lease extension is legally completed.
