Summary - 55 GRIFFIN GARDENS HARBORNE BIRMINGHAM B17 0HU
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact duplex flat near QE Hospital and Harborne high street with parking and long lease.
Two double bedrooms in duplex layout
Set over two floors, this duplex flat in Griffin Gardens places you within easy walking distance of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and close to Harborne High Street’s shops and cafés. The living room is generous for the size, and a modern fitted kitchen and two double bedrooms make this a practical first home or rental unit for students and professionals.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space, no ground rent and a long lease (circa 149 years remaining). Double glazing was installed post-2002 and communal grounds are well kept, adding a sense of privacy in a low-rise block.
Buyers should note the apartment is compact (approximately 420 sq ft) and relies on electric room heaters rather than gas central heating. The service charge is around £1,600 per year and the local area records higher-than-average crime and marked deprivation — factors to weigh for owner-occupiers or tenants.
Overall, this straightforward two-bedroom duplex offers proximity to key local employers, transport and university amenities. It will suit first-time buyers seeking a manageable home near Harborne amenities or investors looking for a rental in a student/professional catchment, provided they accept the apartment’s size and running-cost profile.
