Summary - LONGSIDE HOUSE, LONGSIDE LANE, BRADFORD BD7 1SA
1 bed 5 bath Studio
Turnkey, fully managed student lets close to campus with immediate income potential..
Five private rooms each with en-suite bathroom
A purpose-built student block close to Bradford University offering immediate rental income and turnkey management. Five self-contained rooms each with en-suite facilities sit within a building fitted with communal kitchen, laundry, and a social room — practical for term-time letting and easy to manage. EPC rated C and with on-site reception and 24/7 emergency cover, the property is designed for student occupancy and retention.
Price and costs reflect the full managed service: the property is leasehold with a very long lease remaining and annual service charges that cover communal maintenance and on-site staff. The current listing includes all five en-suite rooms; the building is promoted as fully let, giving potential for immediate revenue but limited scope for owner-occupation.
Notable negatives: the location records very high local crime levels and the wider area scores as deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth and letting perceptions outside the immediate student market. The property also carries a high annual service charge (£9,603 for five apartments) and a quarterly ground rent; prospective buyers should factor these running costs into yield calculations.
This is best suited to investors seeking a hands-off, student-focused income stream rather than owner-occupiers. Conveyancers should check the lease details and service charge breakdown; purchasers must also be comfortable buying in a high-crime, high-deprivation neighbourhood where demand is tied strongly to the nearby university.
