This substantial Victorian detached property is configured as a self-contained three-bedroom ground floor maisonette with a five-bedroom upper maisonette, making it immediately rentable as an HMO or simple to convert back to a single-family home. The building retains period features — high ceilings, bay windows and a brick façade — and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating.
Offered chain free on a large plot, the house presents clear income potential for landlords: two reception rooms, two kitchens and three bathrooms across the units, plus gardens front and rear. Connectivity and utilities are strong (excellent mobile signal, fast broadband) which supports lettability to students, professionals or migrant families in the wider area.
Notable practical points are straightforward: the property is solid brick and likely lacks cavity wall insulation, it was built before 1900, and the local area registers above-average crime and high deprivation. The house is best suited to buyers prepared to invest in refurbishment and modernisation to maximise returns or to restore to a single-family layout.
Nearby amenities and several well-rated schools add to long-term demand. For investors seeking an HMO close to transport and local facilities, or for a buyer wanting a characterful family home with scope to improve value, this property offers clear potential with some renovation required.
