Summary - ORION BUILDING, 90 APARTMENT 243 NAVIGATION STREET BIRMINGHAM B5 4AE
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free eighth-floor apartment with gated parking near New Street and Bullring.
Newly renovated one-bedroom, 538 sq ft, open-plan layout
A newly renovated one-bedroom apartment on the eighth floor of The Orion, offered chain free and ready to move into. The open-plan living space and modern kitchen make efficient use of the apartment’s 538 sq ft, and the property includes an allocated gated parking space and concierge-secured entrance for added convenience.
This flat is well suited to investors seeking city-centre rental demand or a first-time buyer wanting low-maintenance urban living. Practical facts to note: the property is leasehold with 102 years remaining, an annual service charge of £3,155 and ground rent of £404. Heating is by electric room heaters and broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow.
Location is a major selling point — immediate access to New Street Station, the Bullring and extensive city amenities. The apartment’s eighth-floor position provides city views; there is lift access. Floor space is modest and rooms are compact, so the home suits single occupants or couples rather than families.
Important negatives are stated plainly: the neighbourhood records very high crime levels which may affect some buyers; the building relies on electric heating (no communal gas) and the area’s broadband provision is poor. Overall this is a convenient, low-upkeep city-centre apartment with strong rental and commuter appeal, balanced by service charges and local infrastructure caveats.
