Description

Offered exclusively to cash buyers, Arpley Street presents a prime "back-to-brick" restoration project perfectly suited for an investor seeking a high-yield HMO conversion. This substantial period property is in a state of major disrepair throughout, offering a total blank canvas for a comprehensive redevelopment. The expansive accommodation is set across four levels, starting with a ground floor featuring an entrance hall, two spacious reception rooms, a kitchen, and internal access to a large cellar. The first floor provides four further rooms and a family bathroom, while the second floor houses an additional two rooms, offering significant scope to maximize bedroom count and rental income.
The property’s location is its greatest asset, situated in the heart of Warrington’s Cultural Quarter and just a three-minute walk from Warrington Bank Quay Station, providing direct high-speed links to London, Manchester, and Glasgow. Residents will benefit from being steps away from the vibrant Time Square development—home to a Cineworld and the award-winning Warrington Market—as well as the extensive retail options of Golden Square Shopping Centre. With the professional employment hub of Centre Park Business Park nearby and the scenic Queen’s Gardens just a short stroll away, the property is perfectly positioned to attract high-quality professional tenants in a location where demand for co-living consistently outstrips supply. This is a rare opportunity to transform a shell into a premium residential asset in one of the town’s most strategic investment pockets.

Should you proceed with an offer on this property we are obligated to HMRC to conduct anti money laundering checks in line with The Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds Regulations 2017.  To complete these checks we will pass your details to our compliance partner Coadjute.

  • Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
  • Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
