A substantial seven-bedroom Victorian detached house set on a very large plot in Whitworth, Rochdale. The stone-built property retains period character and high ceilings while offering modern interiors, off-street parking and a sizable rear garden — features that appeal to long-term rental demand or conversion into multiple units.
This is presented as a buy-to-let opportunity with a long-term tenant in situ producing a reported annual gross income of £54,000. At the asking price of £700,000 this equates to an approximate gross return of 7.7%, making it a clear proposition for investors seeking immediate income and future value uplift from refurbishment or reconfiguration.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, low local crime, good mobile signal, proximity to several 'Good' primary and secondary schools, and generous room sizes throughout. The property pack/Let Pack is available for buyers who need full tenancy and income detail before proceeding.
Material points to note: the property is sold with tenants in place who reportedly intend to remain, so vacant possession is not guaranteed. A Buyer’s Premium applies to secure the sale. Broadband speeds are average; any extensive modernisation or conversion work should be allowed for in costings. Buyers should review tenancy documentation and the Let Property Pack before offer.
