** must see property ** blend of characterful features and open plan modern updates throughout **

Oakmans are delighted to present a truly exceptional piece of Birmingham’s history, located next to The Mailbox in the vibrant Birmingham City Centre.

This stunning two-bedroom apartment is part of the prestigious Scholars Gate development – a stylish and unique conversion of the former British School, which later became the Birmingham Athletics Institute. Converted in January 2006, the building now offers a rare blend of historic charm and modern living in a smaller, exclusive residential community.

The apartment itself oozes characterful features throughout, including beautiful stained glass windows, exposed beams, and high ceilings. The property also boasts a mezzanine balcony, two spacious double bedrooms, and two modern bathrooms, all presented in immaculate condition.

Property briefly comprises:

Welcoming entrance hallway

Generous open-plan living, kitchen and dining area – perfect for modern lifestyles and entertaining

Contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated appliances

Ground floor double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and ample storage

Stylish main bathroom with high-quality fittings

Mezzanine level offering a second double bedroom with glass balustrade overlooking the lounge

Additional sitting area, built-in wardrobe, storage space and modern en-suite bathroom

Located just a short walk from shops, restaurants, bars, and major transport links, this home is perfectly placed to enjoy everything Birmingham City Centre has to offer.

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a truly one-of-a-kind home in one of Birmingham’s most characterful and historic developments.
