Turnkey HMO in central Uplands — strong demand, refurbishment upside.
Licensed HMO, partially let and income-generating
A substantial Victorian three-storey terrace in Uplands, offered freehold and currently operating as a licensed HMO. The property has six double bedrooms across three floors, communal living space, a single shared bathroom and a fitted but dated mid-to-late 20th century kitchen — making it a near-term income generator for landlords with some refurbishment appetite. Partially let already, it presents a turnkey rental opportunity with immediate cashflow potential while allowing scope to increase value by modernising facilities.
Set in the heart of Uplands, the location is a key strength: walking distance to shops, bars, restaurants, Swansea University, Singleton Hospital and the city centre. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting high tenant demand from students and young professionals. A small, low-maintenance rear garden adds outdoor space without heavy upkeep.
Material considerations are straightforward and important: the property requires updating throughout (kitchen and bathroom), and there is only one bathroom for six bedrooms which limits single-household use without further investment. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived, and while rental demand remains strong in this cosmopolitan student neighbourhood, investors should factor in management needs and typical HMO running costs. Crime levels are average and flood risk is low.
This is a practical buy for an investor seeking a central Uplands HMO with immediate occupancy and clear refurbishment upside. For a landlord prepared to modernise the communal facilities and optimise lettings, the house offers strong rental fundamentals in a sought-after student and professional area.
