About
A handsome Victorian freehold of four apartments on Knighton Park Road with approved planning (Application No. 20240777) to add two further one bedroom flats.
Currently configured as four units, it combines period charm with income potential, making it an exceptional investment proposition.
The existing four flats generate £37,080 per annum in rent, equating to a 5.4% gross yield at the £680,000 purchase price.
Importantly, these rents are based on historic agreements, suggesting significant potential for uplift on Section 13 or re-letting.
With the additional flats built, the projected total rent rise is expected at c£52,680 per annum, increasing yield to 7.5% and enhancing both income and long-term capital value.
This property offers flexibility to either owner-occupiers looking to retain one flat while generating income from the rest, or investors seeking a well located rental portfolio in Stoneygate Leicester.
Just a short stroll away you can visit Allandale Road and Francis Street, home to independent boutiques and artisan coffee shops.
The city centre, University of Leicester, Leicester Royal Infirmary, and mainline railway station, offering direct access to London St Pancras-are all within easy reach.
Local schooling options are exceptional, with both Leicester Grammar and Stoneygate School nearby, alongside highly regarded state options.
