A three-bedroom mid-terrace offered freehold with a long-term sitting tenant currently paying £550 PCM. The tenant has occupied the property for over 20 years, providing immediate rental income and low void risk — a straightforward cashflow addition for a buy-to-let portfolio.
The house is compact and dated throughout, with a small paved front courtyard and limited scope to extend due to its terraced position. Photographs show weathered external finishes, traditional-style kitchen fittings, and standard ceiling heights; the property will benefit from redecoration and medium-level refurbishment to modernise fixtures and finishes.
Significant local factors should be considered: the area is classified as very deprived with very high recorded crime, which can affect tenant demand, rent growth and mortgage criteria. The building itself appears structurally typical for its type but shows maintenance needs and a modest internal footprint, so growth in capital value will likely depend on targeted upgrades and rental management.
For an investor seeking immediate income at a low entry price, this property is pragmatic: secure income now with clear scope for rental uplift after works. For buyers seeking low-risk owner-occupation or family accommodation, be aware of neighbourhood challenges and the likely need for refurbishment to reach modern living standards.
