Guide Price £290-0000 - £300,000
An established HMO investment offering five bedrooms, comprising four en-suite rooms and one bedroom with access to a separate shower room, set within a substantial period property arranged over three floors. The property is currently generating £36,240 per annum, equating to a gross yield of approximately 12.50% at £290,000 and 12.08% at £300,000. With estimated running costs of circa £4,900 per annum, this provides a net income of around £31,300, reflecting a net yield of approximately 10.79%–10.43%. There remains clear scope to increase returns further to circa 12.5%+ gross through modest rental re-gearing, making this a strong, turnkey investment combining character, generous accommodation and reliable income performance
Set within an attractive period building, the property has been thoughtfully arranged to suit modern shared living while retaining character and charm throughout.
Accommodation is arranged over three well-planned floors, offering generous room sizes, excellent natural light and a layout that flows well for both occupants and long-term management.
At the heart of the property is a large communal kitchen/diner, fitted with contemporary cabinetry, wooden worktops and tiled splashbacks. The space provides ample storage, preparation areas and room for dining, creating a natural hub for shared living.
The communal lounge offers a comfortable and inviting environment, enhanced by a large bay window that floods the room with natural light, making it ideal for shared relaxation.
The five bedrooms are well-proportioned and sensibly arranged across the lower ground and first floors, offering good separation of space. All rooms benefit from private shower facilities, a key attraction for professional tenants.
A useful utility room adds further practicality, supporting the efficient day-to-day running of the property and helping to keep communal areas organised.
Externally, the property presents well and is positioned within an established residential location, conveniently placed for access to local amenities, transport links and Plymouth city centre.
