## Description

Here we have a traditional late Victorian townhouse, built over 3 floors, the top floor within a Mansard roof. The sitting room and dining room are linked. The kitchen area adjoins a large utility room. Upstairs are 6 bedrooms. Each one has a wash basin, 1 has a further shower and one has full en-suite facilities. There are 2 more WCs and 3 showers. this home is currently registered as, and run as, a HMO (House in Multiple Occupancy). To the rear is a space which has the rights to provide parking for 1-2 cars.

Clearly the house could continue to be run as a HMO. The owners have the registration paperwork, fire safety certification and other certificates to enable the new buyer to continue.

Or those seeking a larger family home (subject to re-registration) might easily look to make some changes (you may prefer a sumptuous bathroom rather than the shower rooms). 

You will all be keen to know that the house has been much improved by the current owners. The windows to the front were replaced like for like (the property is Grade 2 listed, all permissions for works were obtained). The house has been rewired and replumbed. The flat roofs over the “bathroom” and utility have been replaced. Gas and electrical safety certificates are valid, appliances have been PAT tested. 

If you would like a summary of the documentation please get in touch with us. 

A Walk Around The House

The layout is quite traditional, the vestibule opening into the hall where stairs rise up to first floor. To the right are the now opened up Sitting and Dining Rooms. As you might expect the ceilings are higher than in a modern home. To the rear is the kitchen. Fitted with white fronted floor and wall mounted units. Features include a single drainer sink and a range style gas cooker with a wide filter extractor above. A hatch and a doorway open into the large utility room. 

To the rear of the first floor in the area that would have once housed a bathroom there are now 2 separate shower rooms, a further shower room with WC and a 1 more separate WC. A few steps lead up to the 3 bedrooms on this level. All three have vanity wash hand basins, the one to the rear has a shower also. 

Head on up the 2nd floor and you will find 3 more bedrooms. 2 have vanity wash hand basins whilst the rear one has a full en-suite shower room. 

There is a small fore garden to the front. To the rear is an open are for parking. The property has the rights to use this area rather than tenure. We will share the details of this with you. 

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION.

Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
