Description
157 Market Street, Crewe, CW1 2ND
A substantial nine-bedroom licensed HMO, finished to a high standard and generating £69,360 per annum in gross rental income.
An opportunity to acquire a substantial licensed nine-bedroom HMO, with every bedroom benefiting from its own ensuite bathroom. Generating a combined rental income of £5,780 per calendar month, the property presents an attractive purchase for experienced HMO landlords and investors seeking a significant addition to their portfolio.
The nine ensuite bedrooms are a key selling feature, providing residents with private bathroom facilities within a shared living arrangement. For investors, this offers a clear point of appeal when marketing the rooms to prospective tenants.
Let on a room-by-room basis, individual monthly rents range from £600 to £695, producing a total gross rental income of £69,360 per annum before management fees and running costs. Income is spread across nine lettings, reducing reliance on a single tenancy and allowing rooms to be managed and re-let individually.
With an existing HMO licence and an established rental schedule, purchasers can assess the current income and letting arrangements as part of the legal pack. The property offers the opportunity to acquire nine income-producing rooms within one building.
Situated on Market Street, the property is well placed for Crewe’s town centre shops, eateries and Market Hall. Access to everyday amenities adds to its convenience for residents, while rail connections to Manchester and London broaden its appeal to working tenants and commuters.
