Summary - 16 MELVILLE ROAD COVENTRY CV1 3AN
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Well-located for students and city professionals seeking investment or shared living.
Large 1,347 sq ft three-bedroom mid-terrace
A substantial three-bedroom mid-terrace in CV1, this 1,347 sq ft period house sits close to Coventry city centre and major transport links. The property mixes original Victorian features — bay windows and high ceilings — with a modern fitted kitchen and reliable mains-gas heating. Its size and layout suit sharers, professionals or student lets and it is offered freehold with affordable council tax.
Location is a primary strength: a cosmopolitan, student-and-professional neighbourhood with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a wide range of local amenities and schools. The property’s proximity to universities, bus routes and motorways supports steady rental demand and easy commuting for city workers.
Buyers should note clear, material considerations. The house dates from 1900–1929 and has solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation, so fabric upgrades or insulation work may be required. Double glazing is present but fitment date is unknown. The small rear garden limits outdoor space, and there is only one bathroom for three bedrooms. The area records higher crime levels and overall deprivation, which can affect tenant mix and rental pricing.
For investors or landlords, the house offers strong rental potential with some planned maintenance and modest refurbishment to improve energy efficiency and appeal. For an owner-occupier, it delivers generous living space close to city amenities but may need upgrades to modernise thermal performance and security.
