Summary - 54 DOVEHOUSE CLOSE WHITEFIELD MANCHESTER M45 7PE
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Long lease, immediate rental income — ideal for hands-off investors.
Let at £635 pcm with tenancy renewed 28 Sep 2025 for 12 months
A compact one-bedroom second-floor apartment in a well-kept mid-20th-century development, offered as a ready-made income stream. The property is currently let at £635 pcm with the tenancy renewed on 28 September 2025 for a further 12 months, providing immediate rental return and short-term stability for an investor. The long lease (942 years) and communal gardens add ownership security and pleasant outdoor space.
Practical features include a separate kitchen, bright lounge and a well-proportioned bedroom. The building benefits from double glazing and fast broadband; the area scores highly for affluence and very low crime rates. Transport links and local amenities are close by, making the flat straightforward to let again after the current tenancy or convert to owner-occupation later.
Buyers should note key transactional and condition factors: this lot is being sold via Secure Sale/online auction with a starting bid of £87,500. Purchase requires a non-refundable 5% deposit on exchange and a reservation fee of up to 6% (minimum £7,200 inc VAT). The property has electric storage heating and an EPC rating of E, which may affect running costs and future tenant/owner appeal. It is sold with sitting tenants, so vacant possession is not provided.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, long-lease investment in a popular location — attractive for investors seeking immediate income and minimal hands-on management, but factor in purchase fees, E-rated energy performance and electric heating when assessing yield and refurbishment plans.
