A straightforward buy-to-let with clear upside: this two-bedroom, freehold semi-detached home sits in Bruntons Manor Court and is currently let to long-term tenants. The property is well maintained, benefits from solar panels, a driveway and small front garden, and produces a current gross income of £5,520 with an estimated market rent potential of about £10,200 per year.
This is primarily an investment proposition. The sitting tenants have lived in the property for several years and report no intention to vacate, so the purchase would be as a let investment rather than for immediate owner-occupation. The building is average-sized internally (around 775 sq ft) with a medium lounge, two bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom; accommodation is practical and ready to continue generating rental income.
Important negatives are stated plainly: the local area is classified as very deprived with high crime levels, and the plot is small. A buyer should also note that a Buyers Premium will apply to secure the sale. Broadband and mobile connectivity are good and flood risk is low, which supports rental demand despite wider area challenges.
For an investor wanting an income-generating addition to a portfolio, this property offers a low-management, long-tenanted asset with clear scope to increase rent to market levels. For anyone seeking a home, the tenancy situation and area factors make this less suitable unless purchasing as an investment with plans for longer-term management or redevelopment.
