This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blackpool offers a clear buy-to-let proposition for investors seeking an occupied, income-producing asset. The property is freehold, currently let with a reliable tenant and producing an annual gross income of £8,700; market rent is estimated at £9,900. The compact 646 sq ft footprint and small plot keep running costs lower, while good broadband and mobile signal suit modern tenants.
The house is a mid-20th-century build with traditional bay windows, a driveway and a rear garden. It requires some modernisation—internal fixtures and the garden would benefit from updating—so there is scope to add value through refurbishment. There is a medium flood risk in the area and the neighbourhood shows average crime and deprivation levels; these factors should be considered in rental projections and insurance costs.
Tenants are long-standing and intend to remain, which reduces void risk but means any purchaser should plan for continuity or tenant notice requirements. A Buyer’s Premium applies to the sale; prospective investors should review the Let Property Pack and tenancy documentation to confirm terms, income, and notices before bidding.
Overall, this is a straightforward investment for a buyer wanting an occupied, small-footprint rental with near-term uplift potential from modest refurbishment and rent alignment to market levels.
