A straightforward investment opportunity in Wigston: a Victorian mid-terrace with three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a rear garden. The property is sold with tenants in situ, offering immediate rental income and a nearby rental market supported by local schools and transport links.
Key asset features include mains gas central heating, double glazing, FTTP broadband and a current EPC rating of D. The property has had a Japanese knotweed treatment programme and carries a 10-year warranty valid to October 2035, reducing a common post-purchase liability for investors.
Important considerations for buyers: the terrace is a pre-1900 solid-brick build with assumed no wall insulation, so further investment to improve thermal efficiency may be required. The area records higher crime rates and is classified as deprived, which can affect tenant turnover and insurance costs. The property is in South Wigston Conservation Area, so external alterations may need consent.
This is pitched at investors seeking an asset for steady rental return and future value uplift through targeted improvements (insulation, kitchen/bathroom modernisation). Sold freehold with on-street parking and tenants in place, it suits buyers wanting immediate yield with a modest refurbishment plan.
