Property description
*Available September & Fully Furnished* This high-specification one-bedroom apartment is located on a lower floor and comes complete with its own private balcony in the Ashted Wharf development at Glasswater Locks, Birmingham, B4.
Glasswater Locks itself has been designed as a new gateway between Birmingham’s Eastside and the city’s dynamic Learning Quarter, seamlessly blending elegant landscaping with modern facilities. The development offers residents a peaceful canalside setting while still being surrounded by the vibrancy of city life.
Inside the apartment, quality and attention to detail are evident throughout. The hallway, kitchen, and living room are finished with timber-effect flooring, while the bedroom is fitted with soft carpets for added comfort. The feature front entrance door is equipped with a high-security multi-point locking system and spy hole, complemented by matt black ironmongery throughout the home. A freestanding washer/dryer is neatly housed within a hall cupboard, and the apartment is fitted with electric panel heaters and a Mechanical Ventilation Unit with heat recovery to ensure efficient comfort year-round.
The kitchen has been crafted with a sleek contemporary design, featuring a composite stone worktop and ceramic tiled splashback. A black undermount sink and matching tap add to the modern aesthetic, alongside integrated Bosch appliances including a touch-control induction hob, single oven, and full-height fridge freezer. A telescopic cooker hood ensures functionality while maintaining the kitchen’s streamlined appearance.
The bathroom is equally refined, with a floor-mounted Roca WC concealed within a modern vanity unit that offers timber-effect drawers and a composite stone counter. A brushed black basin mixer and halo-lit mirrored cabinet bring both style and practicality. Porcelain floor tiles and ceramic feature walls enhance the space, while a brushed black concealed shower system offers the choice between a ceiling-mounted rain shower and a handheld mini handset. A single-ended enamel bath with fixed screen, complemented by a heated towel rail and black accessories, completes the elegant finish.
Electrical features throughout the apartment include LED downlights in the hallway, kitchen, and living areas, with pendant lighting in the bedrooms for a softer touch. USB sockets are provided in the kitchen and main bedroom, while TV points are installed in both the living room and bedroom. A video and audio door entry system ensures secure access, and fibre broadband connectivity is ready to support modern digital lifestyles. To maintain design consistency, matt black sockets and switches are fitted throughout, with black electrical sockets adding further detail in the kitchen.
Outdoor spaces are a defining feature of Glasswater Locks. Carefully landscaped areas and elevated courtyard gardens exclusive to residents allow natural light to flow through the development, encouraging time spent outdoors. The landscaping has been thoughtfully designed to capture both the calmness and the vitality of the surrounding canals, creating an atmosphere equally suited to enjoying a book in the sun or jogging along the water’s edge.
At the heart of the community lies the Canal-side Club, created to support contemporary lifestyles by promoting wellbeing and balance between work and leisure. Spanning 5,385 square feet, the facilities include a welcoming library area, a private meeting room, and a series of co-working stations for those working from home. A 24-hour concierge ensures round-the-clock assistance, while a coffee bar, private gym, and cinema room provide opportunities to relax, recharge, and enjoy downtime.
The development’s location is equally compelling. Perfectly positioned in one of Birmingham’s most desirable districts, it places residents within easy walking distance of the city’s bustling business hub, as well as world-class retail destinations such as the Bullring and Grand Central. For those seeking leisure and culture, the lively dining and nightlife scenes of Digbeth and the historic Jewellery Quarter are just moments away. Excellent transport links further enhance the appeal, with Moor Street and Snow Hill stations close by, providing fast and reliable connections throughout Birmingham and beyond.
