A ready-made income opportunity in Crewe town centre, this larger corner, ground-floor apartment is offered with a tenant in situ producing £6,540 per year. The gated, purpose-built Delamere Court development provides secure entry, on-site parking and straightforward low-maintenance living — attractive to landlords and investors seeking immediate rental return.
The flat measures approximately 752 sq ft and includes two bedrooms, one bathroom and a contemporary living area. Safety checks are already in place (EICR and gas safety), so the property delivers income from day one with no immediate compliance work required. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the building sits close to transport links, shops and local amenities.
Buyers should note material negatives: the property is leasehold and in a very deprived area with a very high local crime rate, which can affect tenant profiles and resale values. The EPC is D and the apartment shows some dated wear; cosmetic updating could improve long-term rental income and capital growth.
Overall this is a practical, turn-key investment for purchasers targeting rental yield in a busy town-centre location. The current income equates to a gross yield of roughly 8.2% at the asking price, making it of clear interest to investors prepared to manage an urban tenancy in a challenging neighbourhood.
