Set on the first floor of a 1960s apartment block, this two-bedroom leasehold flat offers straightforward living close to strong transport links, Birmingham Airport and local shops. The apartment is offered chain free and presents a practical layout: a spacious lounge, separate fitted kitchen, two good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. Secure gated parking and attractive communal lawns add convenience and outdoor space rarely found at this price point.
The flat is best suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking rental income (estimated around £950pcm). The long lease (135 years remaining) removes typical short-lease concerns, and communal maintenance is covered by a predictable service charge. Double glazing has been installed and the home benefits from good mobile and broadband connectivity.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is by electric storage/warm air units which can be more costly than gas alternatives, and the block dates from the late 1960s–1970s so cosmetic updating or targeted refurbishments may be desirable. There is a notable local crime level described as very high — prospective purchasers should consider this when assessing personal security and insurance costs.
Overall this apartment is a pragmatic, well-located choice for someone seeking an affordable entry into the local housing market or a buy-to-let opportunity with immediate rental appeal. Internal viewing is recommended to assess condition and potential improvements.
