Entry-level buy-to-let near university with immediate rental income.
One bedroom with shared communal kitchen and bathroom
A compact one-bedroom room within a mixed-use terrace, offered with a sitting tenant and immediate rental income. The room shares a communal kitchen and bathroom and is currently let at £550 pcm, making it a clear short-term income opportunity close to the university and local amenities.
The property is leasehold with 240 years remaining and will be sold via secure online auction bidding — bidders should note auction terms and confirm tenancy details and deposit requirements. Broadband and mobile signal are good, and nearby public transport and shops suit student or single-occupant demand.
Buyers should be aware of material negatives: the area is classified as deprived with a high recorded crime rate, and the accommodation is basic with communal facilities rather than a self-contained flat. The building is described as early 20th-century mixed-use and may need works to modernise or change use; purchasers should check planning and licensing if intending longer-term conversions or different occupancy.
This is best suited to investors seeking an entry-price rental asset near the university or a buyer prepared to refurbish and reconfigure for higher-value lettings. Verify tenancy terms, local licensing, and any required repairs before bidding.
