About
DESCRIPTION A well-presented two-bedroom penthouse apartment with the benefit of allocated parking, offering a bright, open-plan layout and a generous private balcony with far-reaching views across the city.
The space has a natural, easy flow, with full-width glazing drawing in plenty of light and creating a strong connection between the living area and outside space.
The main living space is open-plan, combining the kitchen, dining and sitting areas into one sociable room.
Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors run along the far wall, opening directly onto the balcony and giving the room a real sense of width and light.
There's enough space here to properly zone the room - a defined seating area, a separate dining space, and a kitchen that sits neatly to one side without feeling intrusive.
The kitchen itself is clean and modern, with a mix of wood and gloss cabinetry, integrated appliances, and good worktop space.
A glazed splashback and under-cabinet lighting keep it feeling bright, while the layout makes it practical for day-to-day use.
Just off the kitchen, a separate pantry is tucked away behind the main run of units, keeping additional storage discreetly out of sight. There are two bedrooms.
The principal bedroom is a good size and benefits from direct access onto the balcony through large sliding doors, making it feel particularly bright and open.
It also has the advantage of an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is currently set up as a nursery/music room, but works equally well as a study or guest room depending on what's needed.
The main bathroom is simple and well-finished, with a full-sized bath, clean tiling and a modern suite.
The balcony is a real highlight here - it runs the full width of the apartment and offers enough space for seating, planting, or just somewhere to sit out.
The elevated position gives open views across the surrounding area, making it a genuinely usable outdoor space rather than just a token addition.
Service charge: The service charge amount for the property is £3,155.20 with an additional contribution to the reserve fund of £2,240 until February 2028.
The increase to the reserve fund contributes to improvements to the building including a brand new lift, and general refurbishments throughout.
The managing agent advises that these charges are due to decrease once the improvements to the building have been finalized.
LOCATION The property is located in the heart of Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter. The Jewellery Quarter is a designated conservation area and proposed World Heritage Site.
It is already a prestigious and highly desired part of Birmingham. Currently undergoing further redevelopment, many of the old factories are converted into stylish apartments, restaurants and shops.
Within only a short distance to all that Birmingham City Centre has to offer including the Colmore Business District, Bullring Shopping Centre and transport links such as New Street Station.
