This compact three-bedroom mid-terrace on Blackhouse Road is offered vacant and freehold, presenting a clear purchase for investors or developers seeking a near-term rental income or light refurbishment project. The property retains a traditional sandstone Victorian facade and benefits from private off-street parking and a small front garden — useful practical assets in a town-centre setting.
Positioned in Huddersfield HD2, the house is well connected to local transport and amenities, and broadband and mobile signals are strong. Lettings potential is realistic — current guidance suggests a possible rent around £700 pcm — making it suitable for buy-to-let portfolios or as a short renovation-to-let scheme. The three-bedroom layout across two storeys and an open-plan style gives straightforward rooming for tenants.
Buyers should note several material considerations. The overall footprint is small (about 500 sq ft) with a small plot; the area records above-average crime and very high deprivation indices, which can affect tenant demand and insurance costs. Flooding risk is medium. A buyers’ premium is stated as part of the sale process. While the facade appears sound, the property may need internal updating or targeted repairs depending on buyer plans — viewings and a survey are recommended.
This is a pragmatic investment: low entry price, vacant possession and parking add immediate value, while location and rental estimate support letting prospects. For investors or developers comfortable working in higher-need urban areas, the house offers a clear, manageable opportunity to add a lettable unit to a portfolio or to refurbish for enhanced returns.
