A rare freehold investment on Holdenhurst Road offering nine newly converted flats and two refurbished lock-up shops with basement space. The commercial units are flexible to let separately or jointly; combined estimated rental income is £112,000 per year, representing a 7.3% gross yield based on the asking price.
The residential block comprises eight studio-style flats with separate bedroom areas (two include private gardens) plus one two-bedroom apartment. Each unit has been finished to a high specification as part of the recent conversion; the building retains Edwardian character with high ceilings and bay windows that enhance appeal. Good local transport links, proximity to the railway station and a cluster of schools add lettings demand potential from students and young families.
Important considerations: the immediate area scores as deprived with a high local crime level, which may increase management costs, void risk and insurer premiums. EPC ratings are to be advised and council tax details are not provided. Buyers should allow budget for ongoing letting management, potential remedial works, and marketing to mitigate local demand challenges.
For an investor seeking a hands-on freehold block with immediate rental income and flexible shop options, this property offers strong yield potential. Assess operational costs, insurance and tenant screening carefully given local socio-economic indicators before proceeding.
