Summary - Third Floor Studio, 19-21 Scot Lane DN1 1EW
5 bed 5 bath Block of Apartments
Income-focused investment with immediate letting potential in a central location.
Freehold mixed-use block in Doncaster city centre
This freehold mixed-use block on Scot Lane sits in Doncaster city centre and offers a clear income-led opportunity for investors. Comprising one commercial unit, one one-bedroom apartment and four studios, the property is projected to achieve £3,750 pcm when fully let, producing a headline ROI of around 16.2% based on current figures.
The building is an Edwardian mid-terrace with high ceilings and large windows, constructed circa 1900–1929 in solid brick with internal insulation. Electric storage heating and electric mains are installed throughout; these are functional but may be less attractive to tenants seeking efficient, low-cost heating. The block totals approximately 1,977 sq ft (193 m2) with an overall footprint of about 2,077 sq ft listed.
Location is a strong practical driver: central Doncaster provides excellent access to transport links, shops and amenities, supporting both residential demand and a city-centre commercial tenant. The sale is chain free, simplifying purchase timing and handover for investors ready to manage or refurbish the units for improved yields.
Buyers should note material considerations: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with very high local crime statistics, which can affect rental demand, tenant profile and insurance costs. A buyer’s premium (1% + VAT, minimum fee applies) is payable on completion—factor this into acquisition costs. Overall, the block suits an investor prepared to actively manage tenancies and consider targeted upgrades to heating, communal condition and tenant screening to optimise returns.
