HMO Consent | 3 Double Bedrooms | EPC C (2034) | Parking | Comprehensively Refurbished <br/> <br/>A comprehensively refurbished three-bedroom property with small HMO planning consent, EPC rating C (valid until 2034) and private off-street parking, located in the BA2 area of Bath with convenient access to the city centre and both university campuses. <br/> <br/>The property provides three well-proportioned double bedrooms (approximately 12.5 sq m to 14.3 sq m) currently arranged for shared occupation, offering comfortable accommodation for professional or student tenants. All bedrooms are of regular rectangular shape, creating practical and spacious living areas. <br/> <br/>Bath benefits from strong tenant demand driven in part by the large student populations of University of Bath and Bath Spa University, together hosting approximately 25,000 students. <br/> <br/>Refurbishment & Condition <br/> <br/>The property has been comprehensively refurbished in recent years, creating a well-presented and low-maintenance asset. <br/> <br/>Improvements include: <br/> <br/>modern fitted kitchen <br/> <br/>new shower room <br/> <br/>redecoration throughout <br/> <br/>new carpets <br/> <br/>replacement windows installed in 2024 (FENSA certified) <br/> <br/>These upgrades provide comfortable accommodation for tenants while helping minimise near-term maintenance requirements for future owners. <br/> <br/>Planning & Compliance <br/> <br/>The property benefits from established small HMO planning consent (C4 use) and sits within an area governed by the <br/>Article 4 Direction (Bath HMOs) administered by <br/>Bath and North East Somerset Council. <br/> <br/>Under these planning rules, converting a standard residential property into an HMO now requires planning permission, meaning opportunities to acquire established compliant HMOs are increasingly limited in many parts of the city. <br/> <br/>Compliance documentation includes: <br/> <br/>EPC Rating C (valid until 2034) <br/> <br/>Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) valid until 2029 <br/> <br/>Current Gas Safety certification <br/> <br/>FENSA certification for replacement windows (2024) <br/> <br/>These factors place the property within the higher-performing segment of Bath’s existing HMO housing stock, particularly in light of anticipated future EPC requirements for rental properties. <br/> <br/>Accommodation <br/> <br/>The property currently provides: <br/> <br/>Three large double bedrooms used as letting rooms <br/> <br/>Additional occasional spare room upstairs <br/> <br/>Two reception rooms (one currently utilised as a bedroom) <br/> <br/>Well-maintained communal living space <br/> <br/>Kitchen and shower room facilities serving the household <br/> <br/>The layout offers flexibility for purchasers wishing to continue operating the property as a compliant HMO or adapt it for residential use. <br/> <br/>Location <br/> <br/>The property is situated in the BA2 area of Bath with convenient access to the city centre and regular bus services serving both university campuses. <br/> <br/>Local shops and amenities are within easy walking distance, while the surrounding neighbourhood retains a largely residential character with relatively low HMO concentration compared with some traditional student districts. <br/> <br/>Parking <br/> <br/>The property benefits from private off-street parking together with unrestricted on-street parking, an increasingly valuable feature for shared accommodation within Bath. <br/> <br/>Investment Potential <br/> <br/>The house has historically been let to professional sharers, prioritising a stable and well-maintained household environment. <br/> <br/>The configuration also offers potential for continued HMO use or repositioning within the student market, subject to purchaser preference. <br/> <br/>Vacant possession will be available, allowing buyers to implement their preferred letting strategy. <br/> <br/>Fixtures, fittings, furnishings and white goods may be included by negotiation. *ENQUIRIES*<br/><br/>For all enquiries, viewing requests or to create your own listing please visit the Emoov website.
