A one-bedroom flat in White Star Place offering immediate rental income and straightforward portfolio addition for investors. The property is a practical layout with a large bedroom, spacious lounge and modern bathroom across approximately 516 sq ft. It sits in a well-connected, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood close to local amenities and transport links.
The flat is currently let and produces a reported annual gross income of £8,700, with a long-term tenant in place who intends to remain. This makes it attractive to buy-to-let purchasers seeking an income-producing asset without a void period. Street parking and fast broadband add to tenant appeal in this area.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the tenure is not specified and will need to be confirmed; a buyers premium applies to secure the purchase; the surrounding area has a higher-than-average crime level; and the building sits in a student/shared-living classification which may influence future rental demand and management needs. These factors will affect yield calculations and exit strategies.
Overall this is a pragmatic investment for purchasers comfortable buying a let property with occupants in situ. It suits investors seeking steady cashflow with potential to review rents or refurbish over time, provided they carry out full due diligence on tenure, lease details and management costs.
