This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Suffolk House is a practical, low-maintenance home suited to first-time buyers or downsizers wanting quick access to Erdington amenities and transport. The flat is chain-free with a long lease (circa 190 years) and benefits from communal gardens, allocated parking plus a garage — useful extras in a town setting.
Internally the layout is traditional and straightforward: a larger living room, separate kitchen, double bedroom and a tiled bathroom. The apartment is generally well kept and move-in ready, though some internal decor and fittings are dated and could benefit from cosmetic updating. Heating is by electric room heaters and mains electricity; there is no communal gas supply.
Practical considerations are clear: EPC rating E, an annual service charge around £1,120 (£280 per quarter), and above-average local crime rates. The property will be sold via the Modern Method of Auction — buyers should note the Reservation Agreement and the non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, subject to a minimum).
Overall this is a convenient, value-priced flat with long lease security and low running complexity, best for buyers prioritising location, simplicity and parking rather than modern central heating or high energy efficiency.
