This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Lion Close is offered freehold and sold with a tenant in situ, making it a turnkey investment with immediate rental income. At approximately 463 sq ft, the single-storey layout and low-maintenance front and rear gardens suit a broad tenant base, from professionals to retirees. Off-street parking and post-2002 double glazing add practical resident appeal.
The property is compact but well presented internally, with a fitted kitchen, modern bathroom, and a comfortable living room. Gas central heating via boiler and radiators provides reliable warmth. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting remote-working tenants and digital lifestyles.
Buyers should note the wider context: the local area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime levels. The small overall size limits wider market demand and may cap long-term capital growth compared with larger properties. The unit is occupied by a sitting tenant, so vacant possession will not be immediate and any purchaser must accept this rental arrangement.
For an investor seeking an entry-level Nottingham buy-to-let, this bungalow offers an attractive gross yield (circa 6.19% at the stated figures) and low ongoing maintenance. It’s best suited to landlords looking for steady income rather than buyers seeking a family home or a blank-slate renovation project.
