On the market with Orchard is this one bedroom flat in Clarkes Drive. It’s priced at £174,950. One beds in the area in good condition should let for circa £800pcm which makes for a yield of 5.5%.
Clarkes Drive is a popular area for Buy To Let being not too far from Uxbridge, the Uxbridge Road, Hillingdon Hospital and Brunel University. Clarkes Drive is about a mile from West Drayton station, which puts it in walking distance for me (but a little far for others).
The property has a nice shower which will be a selling point to same tenants, although a bath/shower combination tends to tick all boxes.
The property may well benefit from a more neutral decoration than candyfloss (such a kill joy aren’t I) but there are plenty of tenants who would enjoy its exuberant style.
Belvoir Uxbridge don’t sell property, we are lettings specialists, but we do guide people based on our experience as to what might make a good buy to let property investment in the Uxbridge, Hillingdon, Hayes and West Drayton area. We don’t charge for this service but we would like to manage your property or help you find great tenants.
