The work is already done. A brand new kitchen, a brand new bathroom, new carpets and full redecoration mean there is nothing to spend, and with gas central heating, double glazing and Council Tax Band A the running costs stay low.
The layout sets it apart. Unusually for a house of this size there are two separate reception rooms rather than the single knocked-through space so common on these streets. The bay-fronted living room sits to the front, retaining its period coving, with a well-proportioned 15'2" dining room behind it. The new kitchen lies beyond, fitted with gloss units, contrasting worktops, tiled splashbacks and a stainless steel extractor.
That front room brings real flexibility. Reached by its own door off the hallway, it was used as a third bedroom by the previous occupants and would readily serve that purpose again - of appeal to a growing family, anyone wanting a ground-floor bedroom, or a landlord maximising the letting.
Upstairs are two bedrooms, the principal a genuine double at 11'5" x 11'5" with fitted wardrobe, both served by a brand new bathroom with shower over the bath.
Outside is an enclosed rear garden with a paved patio and path and gated rear access, offering scope to create an easily maintained outdoor space.
Widdrington Road sits in the heart of Radford, within walking distance of Coventry city centre and Coventry University, with straightforward access to the ring road and the A444. Local shops, schools and everyday amenities are close at hand.
The property is vacant, so there is no chain and no waiting on anyone else. Viewings can be arranged at short notice, a buyer can move in as soon as the legal work is done, and a landlord can choose their own tenant from day one.
Early viewing is strongly recommended.

Investment Summary
An achievable rent of £1,000–£1,100 per calendar month represents a gross yield of approximately 7–8% at the guide price - the level active Coventry investors are targeting. Radford's proximity to the city centre, both universities and University Hospital underpins consistent tenant demand. Offered with vacant possession, so an incoming landlord can select their own tenant.
