- Freehold, chain-free and offered individually or as a pair
- Newly renovated; modern kitchen and communal living area
- Under 100m from Brighton seafront and close to station
- Six double bedrooms across three storeys, large communal space
- Located in a student‑dominated area; higher local crime rates
- Very small plot with no private garden; limited outdoor space
- Solid brick walls assumed uninsulated; budget for maintenance
A well-located 6-bedroom mid-terrace HMO on Montpelier Road, offered freehold and chain-free. The property is newly renovated, arranged over three storeys with double bedrooms and a large communal kitchen/living area, and currently produces c. £52,500 per annum. Its position — under 100 metres from Brighton seafront and within easy walking distance of the station, shops and restaurants — is the primary value driver for rental demand.
This building will suit an investor seeking immediate income: lettings are in place and the property can be bought alone or as a pair with the neighbouring house for portfolio scale. Practical positives include modern glazing, mains gas boiler with underfloor heating and a recent refurbishment that supported previous short‑stay use.
Notable considerations are factual and should inform purchase planning: the surrounding neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan, student‑dominated area with higher crime statistics and local area deprivation, and the plot offers very little private outdoor space. The solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and council tax is described as expensive, so buyers should budget for ongoing management, periodic maintenance (sash/windows and exterior) and typical HMO compliance costs.
Overall this is an income-producing, centrally positioned HMO with straightforward operational upside from location and condition, but it requires active management and acceptance of the urban, student‑led context and limited external space.
