A five-bedroom HMO near Oxford Brookes, currently let to September 2026 and producing £3,000 pcm (approx. 6.3% yield). The semi-detached, mid-20th-century property offers practical living spaces, driveway parking for several vehicles and a decent rear garden — features that suit investors targeting student or professional lets.
Internally the layout includes an open-plan kitchen/sitting/dining room, five bedrooms and a single shared bathroom plus a ground-floor WC. The house is solid-brick construction with double glazing; however, the kitchen and communal areas are dated and would benefit from modernization to improve rental rates and long-term value.
Notable negatives are the single bathroom for five occupants, assumed lack of wall insulation, above-average local crime levels and a small overall internal size (about 1,011 sq ft). The property’s HMO status and existing tenancy offer immediate income but limit vacant possession flexibility until September 2026.
This is a straightforward letting-investment opportunity in a strong rental location close to university facilities, cafes and transport. Buyers should budget for internal updating and possible energy-efficiency works to enhance returns and tenant appeal.
