Property Details

Scholar’s Quarter is a UK investment property opportunity, a collection of 100 apartments in the heart of Birmingham’s vibrant historic district, the Jewellery Quarter. Choose from one and two bedroom apartments across six interconnected buildings with lush-planted private residents’ courtyards and views of the city skyline from the top floors.

The JQ has seen rapid population growth increasing by 103.5% between 2001-2011. Today, 68% of its tenants are aged between 18 and 29. Within the neighbourhood over a third of residents walk to work (compared with a city average of 17%), thus showing its popularity as a desirable place to live for working professionals, close to the CBD. It’s also perfectly placed to capitalise on the post-pandemic changed lifestyle choice of desiring a lesser commute time into the office.

Savills has forecasted Birmingham to have the strongest rental growth of any city in the UK and a capital value increase of 22.2% over the same period.
