Spacious penthouse apartment situated on the 5th floor (effectively top floor)
with two double bedrooms, large living area leading to a roof terrace with
magnificent views over the city and a bathroom. The property has a secure
allocated parking space, double glazing and has a reasonable service charge.
Arkade Property is delighted to offer this imposing penthouse apartment for
sale. This property is both spacious and stylish, benefitting from a large
roof terrace with the most spectacular views over the city centre and a secure
car parking space. Internally it ticks all of the boxes with two, large,
double bedrooms, a spacious living/dining area incorporating a fully fitted
kitchen area and a well appointed bathroom. The property also benefits from
electric heating and double glazed windows throughout.
In addition to the plethora of excellent features this property has to offer,
its location is very central, only a short walk to the high quality amenities
that England's second city has to offer and in the heart of the up and coming
Digbeth area which is benefitting from a number of innovative regeneration
schemes. Birmingham City Council has approved proposals to regenerate a 17
hectare swathe of the historically industrial Digbeth area with 1, 850 new
homes, 200, 000 sq m of commercial space, new shops, restaurants and leisure
facilities. Proposals even include a feature "Sky Park" by turning a Victorian
railway viaduct into a high - level park and opening up a previously - hidden
stretch of the River Rea. There are also proposals to regenerate the nearby
vibrant and cosmopolitan Custard Factory which currently houses bars,
restaurants and an excellent cinema. This will be the place to live and future
property values will reflect this (agent's opinion).
One does not have to extol the virtues of being so close to the city centre
which offers the world famous Bull Ring shopping centre, the Mailbox and
numerous bars, restaurants and theatres. Broad Street and Brindley Place are
within walking distance and here one will find the regenerated canal system,
more high quality restaurants and theatres, the Sea Life Centre, the National
Indoor Arena, the International Convention Centre and Symphony Hall, the home
of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. Local sporting and recreational
facilities include Edgbaston Golf Club, the Warwickshire County Cricket
Ground, Edgbaston Priory Tennis Club and the Botanical Gardens. The property
also offers easy access to the main commercial, the M6, Snow Hill Station, the
Metro link and Grand Central Station and regular trains from here operate to
London and Birmingham International for the nec and Birmingham International
Airport. Birmingham is an excellent location for overseas and domestic
investment being centrally located, young and vibrant. It is home to the
strongest economy outside London and is the subject of large - scale
infrastructure projects from the £550 million Grand Central development to the
£1. 5 billion Smithfield regeneration. Also, with work underway on HS2, one of
Europe's most exciting rail projects, England's second city is becoming a most
attractive place to live and invest in.
_Hallway_ Entry to this penthouse apartment is at the fifth floor level which
is, effectively, the top floor as there is no building above the property
although the complex does extend to six floors elsewhere. The apartment is
also located at the end of a corridor, thus minimising the potential noise
from passing residents. The front door has a yale lock and, for additional
security, a key pad operated lock. The hallway has a carpeted flooring, white
painted walls and floor to ceiling, double glazed windows overlooking the
courtyard. In addition, there are four, flush halogen spotlights, an electric
