St Helens, Merseyside

2 x Flats | £165,000 | Peppercorn Lease 999 Years 

INVESTMENT SUMMARY

A rare opportunity to acquire a fully tenanted, two-flat leasehold investment in a well-connected residential pocket of St Helens. 177 Cambridge Road comprises a one-bedroom ground floor flat and a two-bedroom first floor flat, both let and producing an immediate, secured income stream of £1,100 per calendar month (£13,200 per annum) against a guide price of £165,000.

This is an ideal addition to a buy-to-let portfolio, offering a strong entry yield, low management overhead, and the long-term security of a 999-year lease.

Combined, the two units generate £13,200 per annum, reflecting a gross yield of 8.0% on the £165,000 guide price – comfortably ahead of typical mainstream buy-to-let returns and offering scope for future rental growth as tenancies are renewed.
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
177 Cambridge Road is a traditional terraced property arranged over two floors and converted into two self-contained flats:
The layout gives each flat a clearly defined, independent means of access, a configuration valued by investors as it minimises disputes between tenants and simplifies management.
TENURE

The property is held Leasehold, with a 999-year term commencing in 1895, providing a substantial remaining term in excess of 850 years. This offers purchasers and their lenders the practical benefits associated with long-dated, low-ground-rent leasehold investments, effectively removing lease-length concerns from the investment decision for the foreseeable future.

LOCATION

Cambridge Road sits within an established and popular residential area of St Helens, within easy reach of the town centre, local amenities, schools, and transport links. St Helens Central and St Helens Junction stations both provide direct rail connections toward Liverpool and Manchester, while the nearby motorway network (M6, M62 and M57) gives fast access across Merseyside, Greater Manchester and beyond.

The town continues to benefit from ongoing regeneration, including investment in the town centre and improved transport infrastructure, supporting steady tenant demand for well-priced, well-located rental accommodation such as this.
INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
  • Strong combined gross yield of 8.0% at the guide price
  • Two self-contained units with separate, independent access
  • Long 999-year lease (from 1895) removes short-lease financing concerns
  • Well-connected St Helens location with strong tenant demand
  • Low guide price point offers an accessible entry for portfolio landlords
  • Scope to review rents on renewal to reflect current market levels
