Description

The Property
ATTENTION INVESTORS! FANTASTIC STUDENT LETTING OPPORTUNITY IN THE HEART OF CATHAYS – THREE BEDROOMS, TWO RECEPTION ROOMS, HMO POTENTIAL & VACANT POSSESSION!

Looking for your next student property investment in one of Cardiff's most established rental locations?

Situated in the heart of Cathays, this three-bedroom terraced property presents an exciting opportunity for investors looking to benefit from the area's longstanding popularity with Cardiff's student population.

With Cardiff University within convenient reach, excellent local amenities and easy access to the city centre, the location is a major attraction for prospective student tenants.

Offering three bedrooms, two reception rooms, a separate kitchen, family bathroom and rear garden, the property provides an excellent starting point for a potential student HMO investment, subject to the necessary permissions and licensing.

Requiring only modest modernisation and cosmetic improvements, the property also offers scope to create attractive rental accommodation tailored to the student market.

Better still, it is offered with vacant possession.

A Prime Student Rental Location
Cathays has long been recognised as one of Cardiff's most popular student residential areas, thanks to its convenient position close to Cardiff University and the city centre.

The surrounding neighbourhood offers shops, supermarkets, cafés, takeaways and excellent everyday amenities, making it particularly appealing to students.

For investors, this established student location is undoubtedly one of the property's strongest selling points.

Flexible Ground-Floor Accommodation
An entrance hallway leads to two separate reception rooms, offering excellent flexibility.

The sitting room provides an ideal communal living area, while the separate dining room offers additional space and potential for alternative arrangements, subject to the necessary approvals.

The kitchen provides a dedicated cooking area, with scope for updating to meet the requirements of future occupants.

The combination of separate reception rooms and kitchen accommodation gives purchasers flexibility when considering the property's future use.

Three Bedrooms & Family Bathroom
To the first floor are three bedrooms, providing an appealing foundation for shared rental accommodation.

The rooms offer potential for individual student occupation, subject to compliance with relevant HMO requirements.

A family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

Rear Garden
Outside, the property benefits from a rear garden, providing useful outdoor space and an additional feature for prospective tenants.

An Exciting Investment Opportunity
With its sought-after Cathays location, proximity to Cardiff University and flexible accommodation, this property offers plenty of potential for investors considering the student rental market.

The opportunity to undertake modest improvements, combined with vacant possession, makes this an attractive proposition for purchasers looking to develop their next investment.

Alternatively, the property could be modernised to create a lovely three-bedroom family home.

Whether you're an established landlord expanding your portfolio or considering your first student investment, Cranbrook Street is certainly worthy of an early viewing!
