THE PROPERTY
This first-floor, purpose-built studio apartment presents an excellent buy-to-let investment opportunity, offering well-presented and modernised accommodation with a tenant already in situ. The current tenant is paying £475 per calendar month and is prepared to enter into a new tenancy agreement with a new owner, providing immediate income and an attractive gross yield of approximately 6.5%.

The property has been updated in recent years, benefitting from the installation of a modern fitted kitchen, a contemporary shower room and double-glazed windows, alongside general improvements to the accommodation. The apartment further benefits from a remaining lease term of 957 years.

Internally, the accommodation is arranged around an open-plan living space with a defined bedroom area. The kitchen is positioned to the side of the living space and is fitted with modern units. An inner lobby provides access to an airing cupboard, space for a washing machine and a door leading to the shower room.

Externally, residents have use of a communal parking area, shared gardens and a bin store, adding to the practicality and appeal of the property.
