This four-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Manchester Road is presented as a ready-made buy-to-let, currently producing £850 pcm (approx. £10,200 pa). Arranged over four floors with a lower-ground storage/basement, the property offers immediate rental income and scope for value uplift through refurbishment or conversion of the basement (subject to consents).
Constructed before 1900 with sandstone/limestone walls (assumed uninsulated), double glazing and gas central heating, the house combines period character with practical basics. The roofline and chimney show signs of external maintenance need; internal updates are likely given the property’s age. EPC rating D indicates moderate energy performance; upgrading insulation and heating could reduce running costs and improve long-term rental appeal.
Sold at auction with a £3,600 administration fee payable on exchange, this freehold plot is very small with an enclosed rear yard and limited on-street parking. The immediate location offers excellent broadband and mobile signal, close access to Huddersfield town centre and commuter routes, nearby schools (including two highly ranked options) and local amenities. Investors should note the surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which affects tenant profiles and potential rent growth.
This is a practical purchase for an investor or landlord seeking instant yield and refurbishment upside. Essential considerations before bidding include the auction sale process, required maintenance (roof/chimney, likely wall insulation), and the need to review the legal pack for any additional disbursements and tenancy details.
