Summary - 20, Westdown Road SE6 4RL
6 bed 3 bath Terraced
Ready-configured rental income near Catford and Lewisham stations.
6-bedroom HMO layout with annex-style rooms and multiple WCs
This mid-terrace Edwardian house is configured as a 6-bedroom HMO, arranged over three storeys with annex-style rooms and multiple WCs and bathroom facilities. Each bedroom is advertised at £850pcm, giving clear rental income potential for an investor seeking a lettings-ready layout and a straightforward cashflow opportunity. The property includes a bright kitchen and a large, well-kept rear garden for tenant amenity.
Set close to Catford and Lewisham stations, the house benefits from excellent public transport links and fast broadband—useful for commuter tenants and professionals. Nearby green spaces and local amenities support tenant demand; the location sits within an inner-city cosmopolitan area popular with established tech workers.
There are several material considerations: the home is a small overall size on a small plot, built 1930–1949 with solid brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown. Heating is mains-gas boiler and radiators. The property’s condition suggests refurbishment or energy-efficiency upgrades could be needed to maximise long-term returns.
Freehold tenure and multiple bathrooms reduce immediate capital expenditure for conversion; however prospective buyers should factor in potential renovation costs, energy-efficiency improvements, and usual HMO licensing or compliance checks. The low local crime rate is positive, though the wider area shows higher levels of deprivation—important for tenant profiling and management strategy.
