Rare 10 Bedroom HMO Investment Prime East Oxford Significant Value-Add Potential A substantial and rarely available 10-bedroom HMO investment in the heart of East Oxford, moments from Cowley Road, offering ten double bedrooms, four bathrooms, multiple-vehicle off-street parking, a larger-than-average rear garden and significant scope for further enhancement.
JCP Estate Agents are delighted to offer this impressive 10-bedroom HMO, occupying a highly convenient position in one of East Oxford's most established rental locations.
Large HMO investments of this nature rarely become available in East Oxford, particularly properties combining this level of accommodation with substantial outside space and parking for multiple vehicles.
The property is currently arranged to provide ten double bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, together with two further bathrooms.
There is also a generous open-plan living/dining room and kitchen/breakfast room, providing valuable communal accommodation for a property of this scale.
Significant Potential to Further Enhance Of particular interest to investors is the opportunity to increase the provision of en-suite facilities.
With two bedrooms already benefiting from en-suites and all ten bedrooms being doubles, the property provides an excellent basis from which an incoming purchaser could explore creating additional en-suite bedrooms.
Further opportunities may exist to upgrade, reconfigure or extend the existing accommodation, including exploring the potential offered by the property's generous plot and larger-than-average garden.
This creates a particularly attractive proposition: An existing large-scale HMO with the opportunity to further improve and optimise the asset over time.
Larger Garden & Multiple-Vehicle Parking A particularly unusual feature for a property of this nature and location is the amount of external space available.
To the rear is a larger-than-average private garden, providing considerably more outside space than is typically associated with shared accommodation in this part of East Oxford.
To the front, the property also benefits from off-street driveway parking for multiple vehicles another valuable and relatively uncommon feature in this location.
For investors, the combination of ten letting rooms, substantial outside space and multiple-vehicle parking within a single East Oxford asset considerably strengthens the overall proposition.
Prime East Oxford Rental Location The property is situated just off Cowley Road, placing occupiers within easy reach of one of Oxford's most vibrant areas, with its extensive selection of restaurants, cafés, supermarkets, independent shops and everyday amenities.
Oxford city centre is readily accessible, while the wider location provides convenient access to the universities, hospitals and numerous major employment and research centres across the city.
The breadth of Oxford's student and professional population provides a diverse underlying market for shared accommodation, making East Oxford a particularly established location for HMO investment.
A Rare Investment Opportunity What sets this property apart is the combination of scale, location and future potential.
The opportunity to acquire a 10-double-bedroom HMO just off Cowley Road, with existing en-suite accommodation, substantial communal space, a larger-than-average garden and parking for multiple vehicles.
For an investor seeking an established Oxford HMO with the ability to consider additional en-suites, refurbishment, reconfiguration and further enhancement, this represents an exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial asset in one of the city's most recognised rental locations.
Early viewing is strongly recommended, as HMO investment opportunities of this size and nature are rarely brought to the open market in East Oxford.
