6 Bedroom Terraced House

An outstanding investment opportunity in one of Lancaster’s most desirable student locations, this substantial six-bedroom end-terraced HMO on Golgotha Road offers an exceptional blend of strong rental returns, high-quality accommodation, and long-term tenant appeal. Currently delivering a superb 10% yield and generating an annual income in excess of £40,000, this is a rare chance to acquire a high-performing, fully established investment in the heart of Lancaster.

Extensively upgraded by the current owners, the property has been professionally configured to provide six generous double bedrooms, each benefiting from fitted study desks and private sink units, making it ideally suited for modern student living. Spacious communal areas, private outdoor space, and substantial off-road parking further enhance what is already a standout investment opportunity in a consistently high-demand rental area.

The property is entered via the main hallway, creating an inviting first impression with practical storage space and access to the principal ground floor accommodation.

To the front elevation is Bedroom One, a spacious double bedroom featuring a large bay window allowing plenty of natural light. As with all six bedrooms in the property, this room benefits from fitted furnishings including a study desk and private sink unit, creating a practical and desirable student living space.

Also accessed from the hallway is the generous communal lounge, offering an excellent social space for tenants with ample room for both relaxing and dining.

To the rear, the main kitchen is well appointed with a range of fitted wall and base units, ample worktop space, integrated cooking facilities, and dedicated fridge and freezer storage, providing a practical and functional hub for shared living.

Stairs from the hallway lead to the first floor, while additional access from the kitchen leads down to the basement level.

The first floor offers three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, all thoughtfully arranged to maximise comfort and practicality for student tenants.

Bedroom Two is a bright and comfortable double room with fitted furnishings, including a dedicated study desk and private sink unit.

Bedroom Three is a spacious double bedroom offering excellent proportions and natural light, complete with fitted furnishings including a study desk and private sink unit.

Bedroom Four is another generous double room positioned to the front of the property, offering ample natural light along with fitted furnishings, a study desk, and private sink unit.

Also on this level is a spacious shared bathroom, fitted with modern fixtures and designed to comfortably serve the upper floor accommodation.

The basement has been exceptionally well converted, creating versatile additional accommodation and facilities that significantly enhance the overall functionality of the property.

This level comprises Bedroom Five and Bedroom Six, both generous double bedrooms with fitted furnishings, dedicated desk space, sink units, and natural light.

A modern shower room serves this floor, finished to a high standard with contemporary fittings. There is also a secondary kitchen/utility area, providing additional cooking, laundry, and storage facilities. This practical space adds further convenience for tenants and increases the overall efficiency of shared living.

The basement layout offers excellent flexibility and could suit a variety of future configurations, subject to any required permissions.

Externally, the property benefits from valuable private outdoor space, an increasingly rare feature for student HMOs in this highly sought-after location. This additional outdoor area provides practical space for tenants and further enhances the overall appeal of the property.

To the side, a substantial off-road parking area offers ample space for multiple vehicles, a significant advantage for both tenants and visitors. The combination of outdoor space and generous parking adds further value to an already impressive investment opportunity, setting this property apart from many comparable student rental properties in the area.
