Summary - 38 HIGH STREET ABERYSTWYTH SY23 1JG
4 bed 1 bath Town House
Freehold four-bed with garden and strong student rental potential.
Recently registered HMO with Ceredigion County Council
A versatile mid-terraced town house in the heart of Aberystwyth, recently registered as an HMO with Ceredigion County Council. Its freehold tenure, central location and HMO status make it immediately attractive to investors seeking rental income or landlords wanting an easy-to-manage student let. High-quality fixtures and included furnishings reduce upfront refit costs and speed letting turnaround.
The property offers four bedrooms and one bathroom across circa 1,098 sq ft, with gas central heating and double glazing fitted after 2002. A notably large private rear garden gives rare outdoor space for a central town property and provides potential to enhance amenity value. Easy walking distance to the university, harbour, beach, shops and transport links supports reliable tenant demand year-round.
Buyers should note the building dates to before 1900 and the original granite walls likely lack cavity insulation; fabric upgrades could be needed to improve thermal performance. The area has high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, factors investors should weigh against rental yields and management overheads. The single bathroom and small overall plot are typical of town-centre stock and may limit appeal to some occupiers.
Overall this is a practical, income-focused opportunity: a town-centre investment with immediate HMO permission and strong location fundamentals, but one that requires sensible budgeting for long-term maintenance and energy-efficiency improvements.
