This fully licensed five-bedroom mid-terrace HMO in CV1 is presented as an income-ready investment near strong bus links and the university campus. Four bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms, helping maximise rental appeal to students or sharers, and the property is offered freehold with mains gas heating and double glazing.
Internally the layout is compact and practical: a lounge/diner, fitted kitchen with utility area, a ground-floor bathroom and five bedrooms arranged over three floors. Room sizes are generally small-to-average, typical of inner-city HMOs, which supports multiple lettings but limits premium room rents. A larger-than-average rear garden is present but currently overgrown and will need attention.
Buyers should weigh the positives against clear local and property-level considerations. The area is classified as deprived with higher local crime levels, which can affect tenant demand and management needs. The plot and overall living space are modest; some ongoing maintenance and cosmetic updating may be required to keep standards for HMO licensing and tenant turnover.
For a buy-to-let investor this property offers an established income layout and HMO licence in place, reducing initial conversion cost and time. Its city location and transport links support steady student or rented demand, but active management and sensible refurbishment budgeting will be important given the area profile and compact room sizes.
