This freehold mid-terrace in HU5 is offered as a fully let 3-bedroom house-share producing a headline annual income of £15,588 (c.13.56% yield at £115,000). Located 5–10 minutes’ walk from the University of Hull, the property is well-placed for student demand and sits within a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with nearby shops, cafes and transport links.
The house retains period character externally with a bay-fronted Victorian façade and double glazing installed after 2002. Internally the layout suits communal living: three upstairs bedrooms, a through lounge/dining room and a compact footprint (approx. 527 sq ft). The property is let furnished and presents immediate cashflow for a buy-to-let investor targeting students or private renters.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly: overall accommodation and plot are small, the building has solid brick walls assumed without insulation, and some external timber/detail appears worn and may need refurbishment. The area is relatively deprived with average crime statistics — common in high-demand student locations — and the house will require ongoing maintenance and occasional turnover management associated with student lets.
This property is aimed at investors seeking strong yield and immediate income rather than a hands-off long-term residential purchase. It offers clear refurbishment potential to enhance rents, but purchasers must budget for periodic maintenance, possible insulation works, and the operational demands of a student let.
