This three-bedroom flat on Mosquito Way is presented as an income-producing urban apartment ideal for investors or buyers seeking a tenant-in-place purchase. Currently let at £1,650 pcm until August 2026, the property provides immediate rental return and sits within walking distance of the university, the Galleria shopping centre and local transport links.
The flat occupies 686 sq ft in a contemporary four-storey brick and render building with good natural light and individual balconies. The interior includes an open-plan kitchen with fitted appliances and practical living space suited to students or sharers. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — practical benefits for renters.
Notable facts that affect running costs and suitability are straightforward: the property is leasehold (long lease remaining shown) with an average service charge of £2,550, and there is a single bathroom for three bedrooms. Local crime statistics are very high, which may influence tenant demand or insurance costs and should be factored into yield calculations.
Overall, the flat offers a hands-off income stream for an investor or a compact, well-connected purchase for someone targeting shared accommodation. The long lease and central location are strengths; consider the service charge level, borough safety record, and single-bathroom layout when assessing long-term potential.
