Compact, low-maintenance flat ideal for buy-to-let near university and hospital.
Top-floor studio with bright double-glazed windows
A compact top-floor studio in Primus Place, positioned for strong rental demand from De Montfort University and city-centre workers. The open-plan living/kitchen/bedroom is bright thanks to large double-glazed windows; a contemporary shower room completes the accommodation. With a long lease (circa 240 years) and modern construction, this is a low-risk leasehold investment ready for immediate let.
The flat’s strengths are its location and specification: integrated kitchen appliances, built-in wardrobes, laminate flooring and spotlights present a move-in ready finish that appeals to students and short-term city lettings. Communal services provide heating and electricity via a community scheme, simplifying management for a investor landlord.
Be aware of the material limitations: the apartment is small (approx. 317 sq ft) with no private outdoor space and limited on-site parking. The building is in a busy, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood so noise and turnover can be higher than residential suburbs. Leasehold ownership may incur service charges and additional leasepack/legal costs — buyers should budget for these and confirm exact charges.
Overall this is a city-centre, low-maintenance flat aimed at investors or first-time landlords seeking immediate rental income. Its long lease and contemporary finish reduce near-term capital expenditure, but the small footprint and urban setting define its tenant market and yield profile.
