The property has been vacant since 2021 due to non-compliance with fire regulations, and a notice has been served by the Fire Authority. The property is situated on Newton Street, with Birmingham city centre, its eclectic shops, restaurants, and amenities, within easy reach. The property also benefits from excellent road connectivity and is close to two major train stations.
