Licensed HMO with C3/4 dual-use, occupied and let until July 2026
C-rated EPC — energy efficiency improvements may be beneficial
Compact 937 sq ft layout; rooms generally small-to-medium sized
Low-maintenance small rear garden and forecourt
Double glazed and externally insulated cavity walls
Above-average local crime rate — location consideration

Potential for refurbishment or reconversion subject to licensing
An end-of-terrace property in central Southsea presented as a licensed 4-bedroom HMO, offering an income-producing asset with C3/4 dual use. The house is currently let until July 2026, making it a straightforward, low-management purchase for a buy-to-let investor or portfolio bolt-on. Internal layout is compact but practical across two storeys, with a bay-front lounge, kitchen, downstairs bathroom and four bedrooms.
The property extends to around 937 sq ft and sits on a small, low-maintenance plot with a compact rear garden and forecourt. It benefits from double glazing, cavity walls with external insulation, mains gas central heating and an EPC rated C. Room sizes are generally small-to-medium, typical of Southsea terraces, so income per room versus refurbishment potential will be key to future returns.
Notable positives include an existing HMO licence and established tenancy, central location popular with students and professionals, and low ongoing garden maintenance. Important considerations: the property is C-rated for energy efficiency, sits in an area with above-average crime, has limited external space, and is compact in overall size — some cosmetic updating or reconfiguration could enhance yields or enable conversion back to family use (subject to licence change).
For investors seeking an occupied, licenced HMO in a cosmopolitan Southsea neighbourhood, this offers immediate rental income and scope for value-add. Detailed rental figures and licence documentation are available on request; viewings will need to accommodate the current tenancy.
