Description

Town & Country Property Auctions are pleased to offer to the market a rare opportunity to acquire a recently completed executive apartment within the newly constructed retirement development of Broadleaf House, Sutton Coldfield.

The apartment offers generous living space with three double bedrooms and a separate study area. The current owners purchased the apartment from new in December 2024 and so the property is presented immaculately and in "as new" condition and offered significantly below its open market value.

Apartment 51 is the largest and best positioned of the apartments in the complex and boasts two balcony areas overlooking the beautiful courtyard garden.

The apartment is advertised at a significant discount on open market value and similar apartments in the block with arguably less appeal are being marketed for sale at much higher values.

A change in the circumstances of the vendors necessitate a swift sale and, hence, the property is offered for sale under auction terms at an attractive price.

Apartment 51 at Broadleaf House, an exceptional three-bedroom, two-bathroom top-floor apartment offering the perfect balance of luxury, independence, and reassurance for those aged 55 and over.

Overview

Set within a warm and welcoming retirement community in the heart of Wylde Green, Sutton Coldfield, this beautiful home is ideal for those looking to downsize, but without giving up on quality, space, or lifestyle.

From the moment you step inside, Apartment 51 feels different. A wide, welcoming hallway leads to generous storage areas and a utility cupboard, providing a practical and thoughtful space to keep life organised. The bright, open-plan living and dining room is flooded with natural light from multiple windows and patio doors, leading to a walk-out balcony with peaceful garden views, the perfect spot to start or end your day.

The modern, stylish kitchen is just off the main living area, designed for both ease and elegance. Three double bedrooms offer flexibility, space for guests, hobbies, or simply to spread out in comfort. The principal bedroom is a true sanctuary, complete with its own private balcony, a large walk-in wardrobe, and a contemporary en-suite shower room. A separate study and bathroom complete the expansive layout, with over 1,600 square feet to make your own.

Downsizing here means more, not less. More space to enjoy. More freedom from maintenance. More peace of mind. The benefit of a modern, purpose-built property is the reassurance of energy-efficient design, high-specification finishes, and minimal maintenance needs, allowing you to spend less time worrying about repairs and more time living the life you choose.

Beyond your front door, Broadleaf House offers an exceptional lifestyle. Managed by Adlington Management Services, with 24/7 on-site staff, the community is designed to offer the perfect blend of independence and support. Enjoy the vibrant social life if you wish, with a calendar of activities, or simply relax with a book in the coffee lounge, treat yourself to breakfast or lunch in the on-site restaurant, or unwind in the therapy suite or hair salon.

The beautifully maintained gardens provide an ever-changing backdrop, perfect for leisurely strolls or meeting with friends, while secure, stylish communal spaces make everyday living both easy and enjoyable.

Wylde Green, with its local shops, cafés, and friendly atmosphere, offers everything you need close to home. Sutton Coldfield's wider shopping, leisure, and green spaces, including the breath-taking Sutton Park, are just a short drive or bus ride away, with excellent transport links connecting you effortlessly to Birmingham and beyond.
