Compact investment near shops, park and transport links.
Second-floor studio in central Guildford location
A compact studio in the heart of Guildford provides a straightforward buy-to-let proposition close to the town’s shops, restaurants and Stoke Park. The flat sits on the second floor of a smart mixed-use block and offers a bright single-room layout with a fitted kitchenette and modern shower room.
The property benefits from a long lease (142 years remaining), double glazing and mains gas via a community heating scheme, reducing immediate major capital expenditure. Service charge and small ground rent are predictable running costs for investors and owner-occupiers alike.
Notable considerations are the very high local crime level and very slow broadband speeds — both relevant for tenant demand and rental positioning. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so energy efficiency improvements may be a medium-term cost if targeting higher-yield, energy-conscious tenants.
Overall this studio suits investors seeking a centrally located, low-management rental near Guildford station and university areas, or a first-step owner-occupier comfortable with urban living and modest communal costs.
