155 & 157 Monks Road, Lincoln, Lincolnshire LN2 5JJ

An investment opportunity comprising two substantial, adjoining Victorian terraced houses, that have been adapted to provide a fully licenced 7 bedroom HMO in each (14 bedrooms in total), laid out over ground, first and second floors. Current income £61,908pa.

Both properties have recently had work undertaken on them, with 155 having been redecorated, whilst 157 has been totally refurbished and redecorated throughout. Both properties currently have shared bathrooms, but in our view there is potential for installing ensuite bathrooms in most of the bedrooms, which provides an opportunity to significantly increase the rental income.

The properties are constructed in solid brickwork under a pitched tiled roof, with pedestrian access from Monks Road and benefit from car parking.

We calculate the property to extend a total NIA of 263.38 m2 (2,834 Sq. Ft).

The properties are located just over a mile from the main Lincoln University campus on Brayford Pool and less than 1/2 mile from the main Lincoln College Campus, situated
at the western end of Monks Road, close to where it joins Broadgate. The property is within walking distance of the Town Centre.

Current combined income is £5,169pcm £61,908pa with three empty units giving scope for circa £85,000 pa income fully let at the prevailing market rates.
