A rare auction opportunity in Belper: a stone-fronted detached cottage arranged as two self-contained one-bedroom flats, offered freehold. Both flats are reported let at approximately £800 pcm each, producing around £1,600 pcm (£19,200 pa) in gross rent based on the seller's information — income that could deliver a strong yield against the guide price.
The property is sold at auction and is being offered "as seen" with no internal inspection possible due to current occupant access restrictions. All internal details and condition reports come from the seller and remain unverified. Prospective buyers must review the legal pack, carry out their own investigations, and accept the risks of unknown defects and potential repair costs.
Set in an affluent area with good local amenities and strong mobile signal, the house has a traditional cottage facade and a decent plot with a garden — features attractive to tenants and families. Nearby schools include several rated Good and Outstanding, supporting long-term lettability. Broadband is average and the property has a low flood risk.
This is best suited to experienced investors or buyers comfortable with auction purchases who can factor in possible refurbishment and tenancy transfer work. The combination of immediate rental income, freehold tenure and a central Belper location creates clear potential, but the inability to inspect internally is a material drawback that will affect valuation and due diligence.
