This two-bedroom leasehold flat in Linnets Park, Runcorn, is presented primarily as a buy-to-let opportunity with long-term tenants in situ. At 581 sq ft and with 104 years remaining on the lease, it offers steady rental income and straightforward management in a modern, low-maintenance block with designated resident parking and a communal rear garden.
Current gross annual income is £9,000, with a near-market potential income estimated at £9,804. The sitting tenants have a long tenancy history and intend to remain, which supports immediate rental return for a purchaser seeking predictable cash flow. The property’s scale and layout suit investors targeting stable, entry‑level assets in the area.
Buyers should note several material negatives: the area records high crime and very high deprivation levels, broadband speeds are slow, and the flat is small. A Buyers Premium applies to secure the purchase — factor this into acquisition costs. Overall condition is described as good, so capital expenditure needs are likely limited, but suitability and yield should be weighed against local social and infrastructure constraints.
