This two-bedroom apartment in Shirley, Solihull, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. Its location is a definite strong point. The proximity to highly-rated schools, Shirley Heath Junior School and Kingswood School, is a major draw for families. While there is a reasonable distance to several train stations, the area’s good infrastructure makes commuting relatively convenient. The communal garden area offers some outdoor space, which will be beneficial for some.

However, the property’s condition is a key factor to consider. The photographs reveal a dated interior requiring a significant degree of modernisation. The décor and fittings are distinctly old-fashioned, and potential buyers should factor in substantial renovation costs. This will significantly impact the overall cost of ownership. The absence of detailed local market data on comparable properties makes pricing difficult to definitively evaluate, but £115,000 reflects this need for renovation. Overall, it represents a potentially good investment for those willing to undertake a refurbishment project, especially those prioritising excellent schools in a desirable location.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
