A robust, income-focused terrace in Upper Bangor, arranged as a licensed 7-bed HMO plus a self-contained 2-bed ground-floor apartment. The property is fully occupied for 2025/26 and produced a gross income of £53,836.87 for that year, with historical receipts of £373,110.37 between 2019–2026. Private off-street parking and a short two-minute walk to the main university underpin strong tenant demand and easy re-letting.
Interiors are newly renovated and finished for low-maintenance student or professional lets: durable fittings, double beds, wardrobes, desks and several en-suite bathrooms reduce management overheads. The separate ground-floor flat is high-spec and attractive to postgraduates or couples, helping diversify tenant mix and reduce void risk compared with a single-unit HMO.
Buyers should note material local factors: the area records high crime and very high deprivation, and the plot/external grounds are small. The building is a mid-terrace Victorian property (pre-1900) with solid brick walls where cavity insulation is unlikely — future energy improvement works may be needed to meet higher standards or tenant expectations. Council tax is moderate and the HMO licence is already in place, preserving immediate rental income.
This asset suits a yield-focused investor seeking immediate cashflow and a property that requires minimal day-to-day works. There is clear potential to increase income in future academic years by reconfiguring rents or targeting higher‑grade occupants, but longer-term owners should budget for energy upgrades and periodic maintenance consistent with an older terraced building.
