ABOUT THIS PROPERTY
This self-contained one-bedroom apartment sits inside Garden Court, part of the historic Lench's Trust Almshouses at 231 Ladywood Middleway, Birmingham. Built in 1858 by architects Hornblower and Haylock in the Jacobean revival style, the building is Grade II listed (Historic England listing 1076280) and was originally an almshouse complex. Today it combines that period character with a fully refurbished, high-specification interior finish.
The flat occupies its own space within the complex, with an open-plan kitchen and living area and a separate double bedroom, all finished to a high standard. The building itself is arranged around a landscaped courtyard garden, giving the development a quiet, green feel despite sitting directly on Birmingham's Five Ways roundabout, one of the city's best-connected locations.
LOCATION
Five Ways is a well-known, highly central Birmingham location at the junction of Broad Street and Hagley Road, on the edge of Birmingham City Centre. The development sits immediately next to Broadway Plaza, an entertainment complex with a multiplex cinema, tenpin bowling, a gym and an indoor climbing centre, plus a range of restaurants and bars, all within a couple of minutes on foot. A large Morrisons supermarket is directly across the road for everyday shopping.
Five Ways railway station is roughly 600 metres away (around 7-8 minutes on foot), with a Cross-City Line service into Birmingham New Street. The Five Ways Metro tram stop is a similarly short walk, connecting directly along Broad Street into the city centre and out to Edgbaston Village on Hagley Road. Brindley Place, with its restaurants, bars and designer shopping, is within easy walking distance, as is Broad Street itself, one of Birmingham's main dining and nightlife destinations.
The location also gives quick road access to the A38(M) and M6, and is within easy reach of Birmingham's main commercial district, Snow Hill Station and Grand Central Station (attached to New Street Station and the Bullring shopping centre).
