Summary - 31 BLACKTHORNE CLOSE HATFIELD AL10 9DS
5 bed 2 bath Terraced
Chain-free rental income near colleges and transport links.
HMO licence in place for up to eight occupants
A ready-made income opportunity close to Hatfield’s college campuses, this extended five-bedroom mid-terrace is offered chain-free and with a valid HMO licence for up to eight occupants. Currently tenanted and producing approximately £3,500 per calendar month, the property suits investors seeking immediate rental yield and proximity to student demand and local amenities.
Internally the house provides two ground-floor double bedrooms, a spacious kitchen-diner and modern shower room with W/C, plus three further bedrooms and a second shower room and separate W/C on the first floor. Double glazing and a contemporary kitchen are already in place; total internal area is about 1,131 sq ft, with a decent rear garden and off-street parking to the front.
Freehold tenure and strong transport links into London add to long-term appeal. Notable practical points: the cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed), the property dates from the 1950s–1960s, and overall plot and room sizes are modest. Council tax band is moderate and local area indicators are average for crime and deprivation.
This house is aimed at buyers prioritising rental income and location over large living spaces. The HMO licence and passing rental income reduce letting start-up work, though future owners should factor potential energy-efficiency upgrades and routine upkeep when assessing returns.
