Property description
In need of modernisation: a 3/4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 4 storey Georgian style townhouse, occupying a quiet tucked away position with easy maintenance garden and parking for one vehicle, favourably located in the heart of the University environs near the BRI and city centre. Primarily suited to and currently used as a student rental, with tenants in place until Summer 2015, generating an income of £1,640 pcm - £19,680 per annum - giving a 5.62% return at the current guide price. To be sold with no onward chain.An interesting non-listed Georgian style townhouse, a mid-terrace of just three properties and accessed by footpath only with period features and scope for refurbishment and updating in the fullness of time.Prime city location: in a superb central position occupying a quiet tucked away position within the historic area of Kingsdown near St Michaels Church, on the fringes of Bristol University campus and so convenient for the city centre and Park Street/Triangle shops and facilities.Understandably now a little worn by constant student occupation but retaining that exciting 'blank canvas' appeal for new buyers to put their own imprint. Alternatively, can be refreshed with a makeover to suit either student/parent buyers or continue as a remunerative student rental investment.Circa 1373 sq. ft., gas centrally heated living space over four floors with easy maintenance town garden. Has accommodated 4 person student lets for a number of years - with current modest combined rate of circa £1,640 per month, varying degrees of uplift should be possible.
