Important tenure and cost facts: this is 50% shared ownership on a 125-year lease (leasehold). Monthly service charges and deferred fees apply; prospective buyers should request the full breakdown of running costs and any specific deferred fee terms before committing. Note the local area is reported as having a very high crime rate — consider viewing at different times and ask about village security measures and local incident statistics.
The apartment will suit a buyer looking to downsize into a supportive, active community with extensive onsite amenities and easy access to Solihull town centre and transport links. It offers good accessibility and low-maintenance living, but purchasers should budget for ongoing service charges and factor the shared-ownership arrangement into finance planning.
