Fully licensed 5‑bed HMO, compliant with council safety requirements
Four of five rooms currently let; immediate rental income
Chain free sale in Harlow town centre, short walk to station
Only one bathroom for five bedrooms — potential tenant pressure
Off‑street driveway parking and low‑maintenance rear garden
Built 1976–82; double glazing fitted before 2002 — possible updates
Area classified as deprived with above‑average crime rates
Small overall size (1,352 sq ft); management needed for HMO duties
A rare, chain-free opportunity in Harlow Town Centre: this fully licensed 5-bedroom HMO is a turnkey investment offering immediate income. Four of the five rooms are currently let, and the property complies with Harlow Council HMO regulations including fire safety measures. Its central location is highly commuter-friendly, a short walk from Harlow Town station and local amenities.
The house is a mid-1970s semi-detached build with double glazing (installed before 2002), gas central heating and a modern shared kitchen. It sits on a decent plot with a low-maintenance rear garden and off-street parking—practical for tenants and attractive to prospective renters such as commuters and local professionals.
Buyers should note material negatives: there is only one bathroom for five bedrooms, and the surrounding area scores as deprived with above-average crime statistics — factors that influence tenant mix and management needs. The property is small overall (1,352 sq ft) and was constructed in 1976–82, so ongoing maintenance or updates may be required over time.
This listing suits investors seeking a central HMO with immediate rental returns and compliant safety features. It could also interest landlords wanting a managed, income-producing asset close to transport links, with scope to review amenity provision (additional bathroom or upgrades) to improve yields and tenant satisfaction.
