A straightforward investment offering on Tomlinson Avenue, sold with a sitting tenant and producing a current rent of £795 pcm (around a 9% gross yield at the asking price). The freehold, three-bedroom semi-detached home sits on an enclosed corner plot with front, side and rear gardens and rear off-street parking — features that support rental demand and future tenant appeal.
Internally the house offers practical accommodation: bay-fronted living room, kitchen/diner, utility/ground-floor WC, three first-floor bedrooms and a shower room. The property is compact (approximately 666 sq ft) and was constructed in the post-war era (1950–1966); it has double glazing (installation date unknown) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
The building will suit a hands-on investor: the property needs modernisation and cosmetic updating to maximise long-term rental value and capital growth. The local area is classified as very deprived with higher crime levels and a population of constrained renters and young hard-pressed families — factors that can support steady rental income but may limit headline capital uplift in the short term.
Practical positives include low council tax (band A), freehold tenure and good broadband and mobile signal. Material points for buyers to note are the property’s small overall size, the need for refurbishment, and the social and economic characteristics of the immediate area which influence tenant profile and management considerations.
