This substantial Victorian townhouse on Clayton Road is offered as a freehold 18-bedroom HMO across multiple floors, totalling 4,886 sq ft. High ceilings, sash windows and bay-fronted rooms retain period character while many internal finishes are described as modern; the building sits on a large plot in a highly sought Jesmond location close to Newcastle and Northumbria universities.
Designed for high-yield rental use, the house has 18 bedrooms and six bathrooms, good broadband and excellent mobile signal—features that suit student and professional tenants. Nearby amenities, frequent public transport and several top independent and state schools add to year-round demand. Flood risk is nil and the wider area is very affluent, supporting stable rental values.
Important practical points: crime in the immediate area is above average and council tax is noted as quite expensive, which will affect operating costs. Bathrooms are compact and there are multiple tenants to manage, so professional HMO management or refurbishments to communal areas may be needed to maximise returns. This property offers clear scale and location advantages for an investor prepared to manage an 18-bed house.
