A rare lot of eight two-bedroom, freehold houses in Lodge Court, Donnington Wood — offered as a single purchase with separate titles for each house and the shared parking/drive. Constructed circa 2003–2006, the homes have double glazing, mains gas central heating and an EPC rating reported as A. Several properties are currently tenanted and one is ready for immediate re-let.
The scheme is aimed at investors or specialist operators: the site is compact and tucked away in a quiet residential cul-de-sac close to local shops, bus links and schools. Normal market rents are estimated around £800 pcm, and the vendor has disclosed an offer from an assisted-living operator for £850 pcm on a five-year deal if the units are brought up to rental specification — presenting an operational route for institutional or portfolio buyers.
Practical realities are straightforward: seven of the eight houses require refurbishment to meet lettable standards; one is currently ready to re-let. The development has off-street parking on a separately titled area. Crime levels in the locality are noted as high, and some properties are currently occupied with tenants who have been served notice — factor in time and cost for refurbishment, compliance (safety certificates, gas/electrical checks) and tenant turnover when modelling returns.
This lot suits a buyer seeking scale and immediate rental opportunity or a specialist conversion/assisted-living operator who can invest in a concentrated block of small homes. The freehold ownership and clear title structure simplify a single purchase, but the project requires capital and an active asset-management plan to realise rental income or reposition the units.
