Occupying a popular residential position close to Northampton town centre, this substantial six-bedroom Victorian/Edwardian mid-terrace property extends to approximately 1,539 sq ft and presents an outstanding value-add opportunity for investors and developers. Previously operated as a licensed HMO, the property retains many HMO features, including fire-compliant internal doors, offering excellent potential for reinstatement as a compliant House in Multiple Occupation, subject to the necessary consents and licensing. Now offered with vacant possession, the property requires comprehensive refurbishment throughout but has the potential to generate a strong rental return once improved. Ideally located close to Northampton Railway Station, local amenities and major road links, the property previously achieved circa £25,000 per annum in rental income, representing an attractive 10% gross yield at the guide price.
