Two-bedroom mid-terrace with long-term tenant — immediate income, refurbishment potential.
Sold with tenant in situ (over 10 years) providing immediate rental income
A straightforward buy-to-let with an established income stream: this 2-bedroom mid-terraced house is sold with a tenant in situ of over ten years, offering immediate rental yield. The property sits in an urban, culturally mixed area of Burnley (BB11) and presents practical, low-maintenance living with double glazing and mains gas central heating.
The house is an average-sized mid-terrace constructed before 1900 with sandstone or limestone walls (likely uninsulated) and a linear layout offering a large open-plan living/dining room centered around a feature fireplace. There is one bathroom and approximately 711 sq ft of accommodation — straightforward stock for a hands-off investor or a landlord seeking steady returns.
Material considerations are clear and factual: the property is leasehold, located in a very deprived area with very high crime levels, and carries an EPC rating of D. The long-standing tenant reduces immediate management risk but limits vacant possession options and resale flexibility. Some thermal upgrade work and internal refurbishment could improve rent and capital value, given the age and assumed lack of wall insulation.
Priced at £70,000, this is a value-driven purchase for investors targeting high-yield urban stock. Expect modest capital appreciation without investment in insulation, modernisation, or security improvements. Suitable for landlords seeking immediate income rather than those requiring vacant possession or a low-crime neighbourhood.
