This compact 1-bedroom studio in Primus Edge presents a straightforward, low-effort investment close to De Montfort University and Leicester Royal Infirmary. At 334 sq ft the open-plan layout is well presented and designed for single occupancy, with modern fixtures throughout and communal facilities including laundry and concierge.
The flat is leasehold and specifically let to students and key workers only, currently managed by a specialist student management company. They handle tenant sourcing, rent collection, maintenance coordination, end-of-tenancy cleans and deposit support, providing a hands-off income stream during the academic letting season (typically September–June).
Practical advantages include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a very low council tax band, while the building sits in a cosmopolitan, multicultural student neighbourhood within easy walking distance of campus and hospital. Buyers should note the small footprint and the tenancy/occupancy restriction to student and key worker lets, which limits owner-occupier uses and may affect long-term flexibility.
Suitable for investors seeking a managed, city-centre student let with minimal day-to-day involvement, this property offers immediate rental potential but should be reviewed with its leasehold terms and seasonal letting pattern in mind.
