...Block of Six One Bedroom Flats | Lower East Hayes, Bath | Mixed Income Investment | Holiday Let Potential

A rare opportunity to acquire a complete block of six self-contained one bedroom flats in the heart of Bath, positioned on Lower East Hayes and within easy reach of the city centre, local amenities, transport links and Bath’s world-famous tourist attractions.

The property is currently arranged as six individual one bedroom apartments, offering an attractive mixed-income investment. Three of the flats are presently operated as short term/holiday lets, while the remaining three are occupied by long term tenants, providing an immediate blend of income streams from day one.

For investors seeking growth potential, the building offers a compelling opportunity. Subject to the necessary permissions, management arrangements and regulatory requirements, there is scope for all six flats to be operated as short term or holiday let accommodation. Based on this model, the building has the potential to generate in excess of £180,000 per annum in gross revenue, making it a highly attractive proposition in one of the UK’s strongest visitor and rental markets.

Bath continues to enjoy exceptional demand from tourists, professionals, students, corporate visitors and weekend leisure guests. Its UNESCO World Heritage status, Roman Baths, Thermae Bath Spa, Georgian architecture, theatres, restaurants, universities and year-round events calendar all contribute to strong occupancy potential for well-presented short stay accommodation.

Lower East Hayes is well placed for access into central Bath, with the city’s shops, cafes, restaurants and cultural attractions within convenient reach. Bath Spa railway station provides regular services to Bristol, London Paddington and beyond, further supporting demand from both short stay guests and long term residents.

Each flat provides self-contained one bedroom accommodation, making the building suitable for a range of tenants and guests. The current configuration gives buyers flexibility to continue the existing mixed-use rental model, retain the long term tenancies, expand the short term let operation over time, or review the asset as part of a wider portfolio strategy.

Investment Potential

This is an appealing opportunity for investors looking for a Bath-based residential block with multiple income options. The existing short term let operation demonstrates demand for this style of accommodation, while the long term tenancies provide stability and recurring rental income.

With Bath’s strong tourism market and limited supply of centrally located self-contained accommodation, the property is well positioned for investors seeking strong gross revenue potential.

Location

The location is well suited to guests visiting the city for leisure, business, university events, weddings, rugby weekends and spa breaks, while also appealing to long term tenants seeking convenient city living.
