About this property

The Spinney, a purpose built retirement development in Kings Norton, has long been a sought-after place to call home for the over 60's since the 1980's and offers freedom and independence. On a personal note, my own Nan used to reside here many years ago and loved it.

Its safety and security is an obvious plus, but its simple apartment design makes for easy living, in addition also to its location meaning your everyday essentials are close by plus transport links getting you to local areas or around the City are a huge benefit.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Birmingham, 2026/27 bills run from £1,575 a year in band A to £4,726 in band H.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Birmingham, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
