Freehold 12-studio HMO near Westfield with strong rental potential..
Freehold Victorian terrace converted to 12 studios + garden flat
A substantial freehold investment in the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, this Victorian terrace has been converted into a 12‑studio HMO plus a garden flat across five floors, totalling approximately 4,250 sq ft. High ceilings, bay windows and period brickwork give the block character that appeals to urban tenants seeking central location and individual living spaces.
Positioned at the top of Elsham Road, the property is close to multiple transport links, bus routes and Westfield Shopping Centre, making it attractive to professionals and students. Nearby well-regarded state and independent schools add further locational strength. The block is offered chain free, enabling a straightforward acquisition for an investor able to move quickly.
This is a hands-on investment: HMO operation requires active management, and some units may benefit from updating to maximise rent and occupancy. Crime in the immediate area is above average, which should be considered in tenancy screening, security measures and insurance costs. Area deprivation is average and flood risk is very low.
Overall, the opportunity suits an investor seeking a central London freehold with immediate rental income and scope to increase value through management, refurbishment or specialist marketing to professional tenants. Full financials and tenancy details should be reviewed prior to exchange to confirm projected returns.
