A turnkey investor opportunity in Liverpool’s student district, this deluxe en‑suite studio in One Islington Plaza is sold with a tenant in situ and currently produces a net yield of c.9.67% (gross yield 18.36%). The block is designed for student living and offers communal lounges, study areas, media rooms, and a gym, supporting strong rental appeal to nearby universities and hospital staff.
The studio is compact and purpose-built with an en‑suite shower, study desk, large bed and built‑in storage, plus unlimited high‑speed Wi‑Fi access. The development dates from 2012 onwards and benefits from double glazing and low‑maintenance communal facilities, making management straightforward for an investor looking for hands‑off income.
Buyers should note this is cash-only and sold with a tenant in situ. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than central gas, and the property falls in a very high crime and deprived area classification — factors that can affect insurance, management costs and tenant turnover. The property may also lie within a selective licensing area where additional charges apply. An EWS1 form is available.
Overall this is a specialist student‑housing investment: strong current income and location-led demand near multiple universities, balanced by local deprivation, higher crime levels and utility/management considerations. Suitable for investors comfortable with the student sector and cash purchase requirements.
