This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Stranraer is offered freehold and being sold at auction, presenting a clear value play for investors or buyers ready to renovate. The property is currently vacant with a private garden and outhouse, a single shower room, and a conventional mid‑20th century construction that will benefit from cosmetic and systems updating.
Projected rental figures provided suggest potential income of £800–£900pcm (annual £9,600–£10,800), producing an approximate 11–13% yield at the guide/price level. An alternative serviced‑accommodation scenario is modelled at £160 per night and 70% occupancy, but that would require appropriate permissions and realistic occupancy management costs to be viable.
Key positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, low council tax, and a location close to local amenities and transport. Material negatives: the property is listed as needing renovation, will be sold at auction (sale subject to auction terms), and sits in a very deprived area — factors that affect mortgageability, timing and tenant mix.
This is a straightforward acquisition for an investor or a buyer prepared to carry improvement works to add value. Buyers should factor in renovation costs, check the Home Report figure, confirm planning or licensing for short‑term lets, and allow time for auction completion procedures.
