Description

This traditional semi-detached home is positioned in a sought-after location and provides super family-sized accommodation with big development potential.

An entrance hall links a lounge, dining room and kitchen that together combine to create a fantastic living space. The first floor features 3 double bedrooms and a nicely fitted bathroom with a full suite.

The outside doesnt disappoint; a side drive joins the front with a beautiful rear garden and an easily accessible garage. Benefiting from gas central heating, the windows are a combination of uPVC double glazed units and originals and the rear addition was built with full planning permission around 1995. An opportunity certainly exists to upgrade and fixtures to add value.

This property must be of particular interest to growing families being situated close to good schooling for young children and within a stroll of the Bricknell Primary School, Kelvin Hall, the Wyke College, and the University of Hull.

An early viewing is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment.

  • 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).
  • Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
  • Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
