Full Description: Oakmans Estate Agents are delighted to present this rare opportunity to acquire a fully licensed HMO investment property situated on one of Selly Oak's most sought-after student roads, directly opposite the University of Birmingham.<br /><br />Occupying a prime position within the heart of Birmingham's thriving student district, the property offers exceptional long-term investment potential and presents an ideal refurbishment and value-add opportunity for investors looking to maximise rental returns in one of the city's most consistently in-demand locations.<br /><br />The accommodation currently comprises an entrance hallway, front bedroom, communal living room, galley-style kitchen and bathroom to the ground floor. To the first floor are three further bedrooms, creating a four-bedroom HMO layout. The property is currently let until June 2026 and will then be left vacant for the following academic year, providing an incoming purchaser with the perfect opportunity to undertake a comprehensive refurbishment programme without the restrictions of an ongoing tenancy.<br /><br />The property occupies a highly desirable location directly opposite the University of Birmingham campus, placing it within a matter of moments of lecture halls, libraries, sports facilities and student amenities. The vibrant Bristol Road is also within easy walking distance, offering an extensive range of supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, takeaways, convenience stores and independent retailers.<br /><br />For medical professionals and postgraduate students, the property is conveniently located approximately one mile from Queen Elizabeth Hospital and the wider Birmingham Health Partners campus. University Railway Station is also just a short walk away, providing direct services to Birmingham New Street and the wider rail network, whilst regular bus services and excellent road links offer convenient access across the city.<br /><br />HMO opportunities on this particular road are rarely available, particularly those offering such significant scope for refurbishment and future rental growth. Whether retained as a traditional student HMO or comprehensively upgraded to maximise income potential, this property represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a prime investment asset in one of Birmingham's strongest and most established student locations.<br /><br />Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the property's position, potential and investment credentials.<br /><br />Scan the QR code to see material information provided by the seller.
