A ready-made buy-to-let in BH9, this freehold detached house is converted into two self-contained flats, currently let and producing £28,800 per year. Both flats have private entrances, two double bedrooms, open-plan living and brand-new kitchens and bathrooms following a recent refurbishment that included a new roof, rewire and updated plumbing.
The property sits on a good plot for the area with an impressive south-facing rear garden of around 80 feet and a front driveway providing off-street parking. Location is a strong rental draw: close to Winton High Street, Bournemouth town centre and Bournemouth University (Talbot Campus), suiting students and professionals keen on convenient transport and local amenities.
This is a practical investment for landlords seeking immediate income and low near-term capital expenditure due to recent major works. Flats are let on ASTs, so the sale is of an ongoing rental concern with tenants in situ. Potential exists to increase value over time through energy-efficiency improvements and targeted cosmetic updates.
Notable points to consider: the property dates from the 1930s and walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction, so additional insulation work may be required to improve EPC and running costs. Crime levels are average for the area and both flats are sold with sitting tenants, so viewings and vacant possession will be subject to tenancy terms.
