This two-bedroom end-terrace on Myrtle Road is a compact, period property suited to an investor or buyer prepared to renovate. The house is freehold, offers off-street parking via a driveway and a private rear garden, and currently produces a rental income of £675 PCM. Its small overall size and traditional layout make it straightforward to manage and let.
The property requires renovation and cosmetic updating; interior photos show wear and tear and original early-20th-century features. Despite that, the building’s Victorian brick exterior and bay window present character that can be retained or improved to add value. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting modern tenant requirements.
Important considerations: the house sits in a very deprived area with high local crime levels and constrained local rental demand. The plot and rooms are small, so it suits couples, small families, or buy-to-let investors seeking a hands-on refurbishment project. Flood risk is reported as no risk.
At the asking price of £95,000 and current rent of £675 PCM, the property offers an approximate gross yield of around 8.5% before costs, subject to tenancy, refurbishment and management expenses. Early viewing is recommended for buyers who understand the area and renovation scope.
