Description
An excellent opportunity for the investor market, this three-bedroom end terrace house is offered for sale with the current tenants in situ, providing a purchaser with immediate rental income from the day of completion, no marketing period, no refurbishment, and no void to plan around.
Located on Houghton Road in Bedford's MK42 postcode, the property is currently let at £1,800 per calendar month and is offered freehold, with no ground rent, service charge or lease to manage. The end terrace configuration offers more space and privacy than a typical mid-terrace, a layout consistently in demand among family tenants.
Bedford continues to attract strong tenant demand thanks to its position within the London commuter belt, with Thameslink services from Bedford station reaching London St Pancras in around 40 minutes. Based on the current rent roll, the property reflects a gross yield of 6.5% on the asking price, comfortably at the top of the typical 5–7% range reported across MK42, with an estimated net yield of approximately 5.6% after allowing for management, insurance and maintenance costs.
Bedford MK42 has also seen continued house price growth in recent periods, supporting the case for capital appreciation alongside a strong income return.
