Summary - Wellesley Road, CLACTON-ON-SEA, Essex, CO15 CO15 3PT
8 bed 3 bath Semi-Detached
Large multi-room investment close to station, ideal for hands-on landlords.
Eight bedrooms configured as a functioning HMO, immediate rental income potential
This large eight-bedroom semi-detached property on Wellesley Road is offered as an investment-ready HMO with immediate rental potential. Situated about a quarter mile from Clacton rail station and within easy walking distance of shops and amenities, it suits an investor seeking tenant demand and commuter access. The house is freehold, has off-street parking for two cars and a rear garden — practical assets for multi-occupancy use.
Internally the layout comprises shared living space, a kitchen and three bathrooms serving eight bedrooms. Many rooms are small and decorated in a dated mid-20th-century style; double glazing was installed before 2002 and walls are original solid brick with no added insulation, so modernisation and energy-efficiency improvements would increase long-term value. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators in place.
Be candid about the local context: the area is classified as very deprived with a high crime rate and a transitional Eastern European neighbourhood profile, and the local population includes many constrained renters. These factors support steady HMO demand but also mean management oversight and tenancy screening should be priorities. Council tax is moderate and mobile signal and broadband are good.
Overall this property is aimed at investors or experienced landlords who can absorb refurbishment work and active property management to unlock stronger returns. It offers immediate occupancy potential as an HMO but will benefit from targeted investment in insulation, décor and modern fixtures to raise rental rates and reduce running costs.
