A five-bedroom mid-terrace on Equity Road offering a ready-made buy-to-let opportunity in central Leicester. The property is freehold and currently tenanted, producing an annual gross income of approximately £18,000, making it immediately income-generating for a landlord or investor seeking short-term return.
The house retains period exterior character with bay windows and a compact forecourt, plus private outdoor space both front and rear. Interiors are typical of Victorian terraces with standard ceiling heights and small-to-medium room sizes across about 926 sq ft. The building’s size and layout suit multi-occupancy rental or refurbishment to increase rent levels.
Notable negatives that will affect operation and values are the area’s high crime levels, higher local deprivation indicators, and a small plot footprint. There is only a single bathroom for five bedrooms and on-street parking only. The exterior appears average; the internal condition is described as dated and will likely require refurbishment to maximise long-term rental value or reposition the asset.
This is geared squarely to investors and developers comfortable with inner-city stock: you get immediate rental income and clear scope to improve returns through refurbishment, reconfiguration or energy/thermal upgrades. Full tenancy pack and financial details are available for serious evaluators; a physical inspection and full service/tenure checks are recommended before purchase.
