Compact, chain-free flat with parking and long lease — ideal entry-level buy.
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat, 442 sq ft
A compact, ground-floor one-bedroom apartment presented with practical open-plan living and a private balcony. At 442 sq ft the layout is efficient: an open-plan living room/kitchen, bedroom with built-in storage and a bathroom. The property includes an allocated off-street parking space, double glazing, mains gas central heating and an EPC C rating.
This leasehold flat has 113 years remaining and is offered chain free — sensible for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking an affordable entry to Birmingham. The communal grounds and secure entry add everyday convenience, while the balcony and natural light lift the living space.
Be aware of the running costs and local context: service charge and ground rent are about £975 every six months (circa £1,950 per year), and the neighbourhood is described as very deprived with average crime levels. The internal finish shows some dated elements (carpets and minor cosmetic wear) so immediate redecoration or updating may be needed to suit longer-term tastes.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-cost opportunity for someone seeking a small home or rental flat with good transport links (near M5/M42) and a long lease. Buyers should commission their own surveys and legal checks to confirm fixtures, services and charges before committing.
