A rare turnkey opportunity in East Oxford’s Golden Triangle: a licensed seven-bedroom HMO currently producing £5,000 pcm. The period mid-terrace sits 0.6 miles from the city centre, making it highly attractive to students and professionals who value quick access to university and town amenities. The house combines Victorian character — bay windows and high ceilings — with a modern kitchen/diner and double glazing fitted since 2002.
For investors this is an income-focused purchase with immediate cashflow and an established HMO licence. The property’s location near Cowley Road and local transport links supports strong letting demand year-round. The small rear garden and medium room sizes suit sharers; the property’s fabric and layout provide potential to refine yields further with targeted upgrades.
Buyers should note material negatives frankly. The overall footprint and plot are small, and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so heating costs may be higher without improving insulation. Crime in the area is above average and council tax is above average, both factors to factor into management and operating costs. Despite these issues, the house’s licensed status, proven rental income, and proximity to the city centre make it a practical buy for investors seeking an established HMO in a high-demand neighbourhood.
