This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Chester Road is offered as a vacant investment and refurbishment opportunity in Hartlepool. With an expected rent of approximately £650–675pcm, the property can deliver a gross yield above 10% after minor corrections and upgrades. Accommodation is well-proportioned for the type and includes an entrance hall, spacious reception room, breakfast room/inner lobby, ground-floor bathroom and kitchen/diner, plus three first-floor bedrooms.
Externally there is a forecourt frontage, a small rear courtyard/garden and a side-accessed garage reached via Wynnstay Gardens. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and is chain-free with vacant possession, making it straightforward to prepare for letting or a resale after refurbishment.
Buyers should note this is in a very deprived area with above-average local crime and a challenged local demographic, which will affect tenant profiles and long-term values. The EPC has expired (previously D, 60/83) and a new assessment is booked; some cosmetic and possibly insulation upgrades are likely given cavity walls with no assumed insulation. A buyer’s premium of £2,000 + VAT is payable on completion — factor this into purchase costs.
