Summary - 173, Cunningham Avenue, HATFIELD AL10 9JZ
5 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Five-bed townhouse with garage and HMO income potential, close to university and transport.
Five bedrooms over three floors, flexible ground-floor reception/bedroom
A flexible five-bedroom, three-storey end-terrace built in the mid-2000s, positioned close to the University of Hertfordshire and Hatfield transport and retail hubs. The layout includes a kitchen/breakfast room, lounge (or ground-floor fifth bedroom), two bathrooms (one en suite), an enclosed rear garden, garage and one off-street parking space. Modern comforts include double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
This property is set up as an income-producing house in multiple occupation: currently licensed for five occupants with an imminent update to a six-person licence. Quoted rental figures give a useful headline yield — reported annual rental income of £35,360 — making this immediately relevant to buy-to-let portfolios or investors seeking an HMO in a strong student/tenant catchment.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward. The plot and overall footprint are compact for a five-bedroom house, and council tax and local crime levels are above average for the area. The layout is practical but standard, so buyers should expect cosmetic updating and to check appliance and services condition. Measurements are for guidance and should be rechecked.
For families the property offers access to several outstanding local schools and easy access to shopping, leisure and rail links into London. For investors the nearby university and a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood create consistent demand; consider the current licence, management arrangements and any refurbishment to maximise rental value.
