GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A rare opportunity to obtain a readymade property portfolio of three former terraced houses in a self-contained block. All properties are of brick elevation with slate tile roof coverings originating from the Victorian era. The portfolio consists of two 1 bedroom flats at 49 Hulton Street, a 2 bedroom terraced house at 51 Hulton Street and two 1 bedroom flats at 53 Hulton Street. The flats at 49 Hulton Street have been redecorated and left empty giving the new owner the opportunity to rent at a higher level than previously and thus increasing the yield on the investment. 51 Hulton Street is rented at £5,980pa to a longstanding tenant of 12 years but could, in time, be converted into another two flats to increase the income. 53 Hulton Street is a double fronted former terraced house with an extension on the ground floor creating a larger than usual 1 bedroom flat with separate entrance at the rear. All of the properties being sold benefit from UPVC double glazed windows, UPVC front doors and gas central heating.
LOCATION
49-53 Hulton Street is located adjacent to Town Road which leads into Hanley city centre at the west and out of the city and past Central Forest Park a short walk to the north. The property is around a third of a mile from the middle of Hanley and on a number of bus routes around Stoke on Trent including access to the main hospital and universities.
