Currently achieving £740 per month rental income

This compact studio in central Luton sits within a contemporary low-rise block close to shops, transport and the university — a straightforward investment or first-step purchase for someone prepared to improve the flat. The development offers communal areas and a concierge-style presence, and the long lease (over 230 years remaining) removes immediate leasehold pressure.
The apartment comprises a single living area with a fitted kitchenette and wet room. It is currently achieving £740 pcm in rental income, making it suitable for buy-to-let or a cost-conscious city base. The building benefits from double glazing and mains gas via a community heating scheme.
Be realistic about the locality: the area is classified as very deprived with very high crime levels, and the flat is marked as needing renovation. These are material considerations for owner-occupiers and landlords; expect refurbishment and ongoing management measures to maximise rental appeal and safety.
Overall this is a practical, long-lease studio offering immediate rental income and clear scope to add value through cosmetic and systems upgrades. It will suit investors targeting students or young professionals, or a buyer seeking an affordable town-centre base willing to manage refurbishment and local area challenges.
