Detached five-bed HMO with immediate income potential and upgrade scope.
Five bedrooms each with private shower room and WC
Chain free freehold with garage and converted outbuilding
Current one-year HMO licence; previously five-year licence
Can be sold with tenants in situ or vacant for reconfiguration
Outbuilding not signed off by building control — compliance needed
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated; double glazing pre-2002
Small overall size and plot; property built 1930–1949
Local crime above average — consider management and security costs
This detached five-bedroom property on Kitchener Road is configured as an HMO, with each bedroom served by its own shower room and WC—an efficient layout for immediate rental income. The house is offered chain free on freehold title and comes with a garage and a converted rear outbuilding that could provide extra income if brought up to building-control standards.
The property holds a current one-year HMO licence (previously issued for five years) and can be sold with sitting tenants for instant returns or vacant for reconfiguration. The central fully fitted kitchen and mains-gas boiler with radiators provide practical, everyday comfort; broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting modern tenant needs.
Buyers should note material issues: the outbuilding lacks building-control sign-off, the property’s walls are original solid brick with presumed no insulation, and double glazing was installed before 2002. The house was built between 1930–1949 and sits on a small plot; overall size is small. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average, which may affect tenant demand and pricing.
This is a clear investment and refurbishment opportunity in Walthamstow’s E17 pocket. For an investor willing to manage upgrade works and address the outbuilding compliance, the property offers flexible income streams and a location served by good schools, local amenities and transport links.
