A compact two-bedroom mid-terrace offered chain-free and tenanted, presenting immediate rental income and a straightforward freehold investment. The current tenant pays £825 pcm (Rent Smart Wales approved), giving an indicative annual yield around 6.2–6.4% at the guide price band. The house sits on a private cul‑de‑sac within a small modern development, with off-street parking, an enclosed rear garden and uPVC double glazing throughout.
Accommodation is functional: entrance hall, modern fitted kitchen, open-plan living/dining room, two first-floor bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Heating is by mains gas combi boiler and the property has an EPC rating of C. The build date (1991–95) and cavity wall construction mean basic structural elements are modern; ongoing maintenance and standard wear should be expected for a property of this age.
Location and local conditions are material considerations. The property is in an area described as very deprived with higher local crime levels; this affects tenant demand, resale prospects and possibly insurance costs. Broadband and mobile coverage are good, and there is easy access to local amenities and transport links, which supports lettability despite wider area challenges.
This is best suited to landlords or investors seeking a low‑management, income-producing asset with immediate cashflow. Buyers should budget for routine servicing, potential cosmetic updating between tenancies and factor area-specific considerations (demand, insurance, re-letting strategy) into yield calculations.
