Summary - 9 FLORENCE STREET LEICESTER LE2 8EN
4 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Compact investment with HMO potential and minimal outdoor maintenance required.
Four double bedrooms plus flexible ground-floor room
A three-storey Edwardian semi-detached house offered with no onward chain, presenting clear buy-to-let potential and scope for HMO conversion (subject to permissions). The property includes four double bedrooms plus a flexible ground-floor room currently used as a fifth bedroom or dining room, and a single shower room serving upper floors.
The brick-built home has period character — bay window, gable and original proportions — and practical strengths for investors: a small front driveway/garage, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very low council tax. The rear garden is private but small and currently overgrown, so minimal landscaping would improve lettability and curb appeal.
Important practical points: the house sits in a deprived area with a higher-than-average local crime level, and the solid brick walls are assumed to be uninsulated. There is only one shower room for multiple bedrooms, and some updating and maintenance will be needed to maximise rental income or prepare for HMO licensing and compliance.
Overall this is a compact but flexible property aimed at investors or buyers prepared to refurbish for rental yield or shared living. It offers immediate occupancy potential, scope to increase value through sensible improvements, and convenience close to local schools and amenities.
