This one-bedroom, first-floor apartment in central Burton-on-Trent is offered specifically to landlords and buy-to-let investors. The property is currently let at £595 pcm, providing immediate rental income and a straightforward hands-off purchase for a cash buyer or those with suitable buy-to-let finance. The 141-year lease is long and secure, with allocated off-street parking and a small balcony accessed from the open-plan living area.
Internally the home is compact and functional: an open-plan living area with fitted kitchen and patio doors, a double bedroom, and a modern bathroom. The build is modern (post-2012) with uPVC double glazing. Heating is by electric wall heaters, so running costs can be higher than gas-heated properties. The service charge (£1,397.14 p.a.) and ground rent (£150 p.a.) are payable and should be factored into net returns.
Notable area considerations: the neighbourhood is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rating, which may affect tenant demand and long-term capital growth. The apartment suits investors seeking immediate rental yield rather than buyers wanting a primary residence. Maintenance appears standard for a modern block, but the electric heating and compact size limit appeal to some tenants.
In short, this property is a clear, income-producing purchase with a long lease and ready tenant, best for investors who accept higher service charges and the local area profile.
