This three-bedroom semi-detached period house on Oakington Manor Drive offers clear buy-to-let potential in a well-connected Wembley location. At 899 sq ft with two reception rooms and a large rear garden, the layout suits families and sharers, and the property’s Freehold tenure simplifies long-term investment plans.
Key strengths include proximity to Wembley Park station and several highly rated schools, which supports strong tenant demand. The house retains Mock Tudor character and double glazing, and off-street permit parking adds practical value for renters. The generous garden presents scope for extension (subject to planning) or creating private outdoor amenity to lift rental yield.
Notable issues are straightforward and important for budgeting: the property dates from 1930–1949 with solid brick walls likely lacking insulation, and the interior needs modernisation. There is a single bathroom plus separate W.C., so layout improvements could increase rental income. Local area indicators include above-average crime and higher deprivation levels; factor these into pricing and tenant screening.
Overall this is a pragmatic investment opportunity for a landlord willing to carry out targeted refurbishment to unlock uplift. Its transport links and nearby outstanding schools make it attractive to families and professionals, while the garden and period features provide further enhancement potential.
