1 Bed Flat, Arcadia Mews, B66

NO FEES CHARGED TO TENANTS - FANTASTIC MODERN APARTMENT WITH PRIVATE PARKING - VERY RARELY AVAILABLE!

Arcadia Mews is a purpose-built modern block of 8 apartments situated within walking distance of bus/train routes to Birmingham City Centre (Broad Street Central is just over 2.5 miles/ten minute drive). Apartments in Arcadia Mews rarely become available as there are very few alternative properties in the local area that are smart, modern, purpose-built & with a private, fully enclosed car park, so most of the existing tenants have been happily settled here for many years.

Considered to be of a significantly higher standard than most other rented properties in the area, this spacious, warm & very comfortable first floor apartment offers the following benefits:

• Purpose built, modern block (built just 8 years ago) located in the corner of a quiet cul-de-sac
• Fully UPVC double-glazed throughout and gas central heating (hot water on-demand - combination boilers)
• Recently completely re-decorated throughout - in bright/neutral colours.
• Private, secure & fully enclosed car park, providing plenty of parking for each resident
• Security entry-phone system with remote unlocking for main door from internal telephone handsets
• Motion-sensor LED lighting systems to both exterior & internal hallways (recently redecorated)
• Open-plan, modern kitchen with integral oven, hob & extractor
• Modern white bathroom suite with shower/shower screen
• All floors are oak laminate throughout with fully tiled bathroom floors
• Bedroom sizes are above-average - very well proportioned double bedrooms
• All rooms are bright, warm & spacious.
• Open outlook (with trees!) to both front and rear - unusual for a property so close to a City centre.
• Corner of cul-de-sac location, away from main roads - easy access, long-established neighbours

Owned & managed by the same Landlord, Arcadia Mews is a long-term rental development. Although an initial 6 month Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement will be offered, suitable tenants may feel secure about renting one of these properties for the long-term, provided the property is looked after and rent is always paid on time. The Landlord offers a rapid response to any maintenance issues (often same day or next day).

When viewing a property at Arcadia Mews, the best reference you can get is by speaking to any of the other residents - ask them how happy they are living at Arcadia Mews and how satisfied they are with the service they receive from their Landlord! Many of the existing residents have been living at Arcadia Mews for several years, which is why these properties rarely become available (this particular apartment has been fully let for the last 8 years...since the day it was built!)

Unlike many converted houses or flats above shops/commercial premises (most of which are quoting similar rents!), these apartments are purpose-built and the room sizes and layout of the accommodation on offer is therefore so much better (and more modern) than most other properties in the local area. 80% of alternative properties are located on or very close to main roads, which are noisy and with only very limited on-street parking, which is often very congested.

With low running costs (Council Tax band 'A') and excellent efficiency ratings (Energy Performance Certificate 'B' rated) these properties cost very little to run and offer excellent levels of security when unoccupied.

The room sizes for this specific apartment are as follows:

• This apartment is located on the first floor
• Entrance Hallway: 18'1" x 4'2" (a long, straight hallway which leads to all rooms)
• Lounge/open-plan Kitchen: 14'6" x 13'9" with modern kitchen units & integrated cooking appliances
• Bathroom: 8'9" x 6'6" - with modern 3-piece white suite with shower/glass shower screen
• Bedroom 12'3" x 12'2" - a generously-proportioned double bedroom with a pleasant/quiet outlook
• Private Car Park - located at rear with one space allocated + additional spaces available first-come, first-served.

There is a large/spacious forecourt to the front of the property which is secure/located in the corner of the cul-de-sac. 2 x large commercial bins are provided which offer at least double the capacity needed by the eight apartments. Large recycling bins are also provided - one for each apartment.

Recently re-decorated throughout, this apartment is in excellent condition and offers bright and spacious accommodation - fully centrally heated & double-glazed with modern fixtures & fittings. This apartment looks and feels like a new home, unlike most other rental properties in the local area which tend to be old/dated and in less desirable locations, yet still quote similar rental rates.

The private car park to the rear is accessible to residents only via an under-pass to the side of the property where there is parking for up to ten vehicles in total. Dale Street only has houses on one side of the road, so there is always plenty of additional on-street parking, if needed. This is quite rare for an area so close to the City Centre.

Rents in Birmingham city centre are generally double my quoted rental rate, yet the City Centre is so quickly & easily accessible from Arcadia Mews!

To be eligible to rent this property, prospective tenants must be able to provide satisfactory references (employer & previous Landlord) and pass a credit check. Ideally suited to a couple of working professionals, the rental rate equates to just £272 per month per person (or just over £62 per person per week), which is less than what you might pay for a single room in a house share/home of multiple occupancy - this is obviously a much better option! A deposit equivalent to 6 weeks rent will be held securely by the DPS (Deposit Protection Service) for the duration of the tenancy.

Due to the quality of accommodation being offered, and giving consideration to all other current residents, please note that we are only able to consider working/professional tenants only. We are unable to accept pets, students or DSS/social housing claimants. Smoking is prohibited inside the building or in any of the apartments.

Available from Sunday 23rd December 2018. This property is available for a long-term let but will be initially let on a 6 month Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) with an option for a longer renewal if all goes well. Please call (or message) to enquire or to arrange a viewing. The existing tenant is happy to assist with viewings and will happily confirm how much she has enjoyed living at Arcadia Mews and that she has received an excellent service from her landlord. She is only moving due to a change of circumstances/job relocation. 

Due to the current tenants' work commitments, viewings can generally be arranged on Tuesday evenings (after 6.30pm), Thursday evenings (after 7pm) and on Monday, Tuesday and Friday mornings. If you are unable to view during these days/times, please enquire and we will see if alternative arrangements can be made.
