With a guide price* of just £1+, a one bedroom retirement apartment in Moseley is set to attract plenty of attention in Bond Wolfe’s October auction.

Flat 29 Sorrento Court, Moseley, is in a development specifically for the Over 60s, and is situated on the edge of Moseley village. 

The accommodation includes a hall, reception/dining room, kitchen, bedroom and shower room and WC.

The flat has electric heating and double glazing and there is a day room for residents, a laundry and a full time house warden and security. 

James Rossiter, associate director at Bond Wolfe, said: “This is great opportunity to purchase a retirement home in this popular Birmingham suburb.
