West Street - HMO Refurbishment

Tranquility Homes: Converting a 4-Bedroom House into a High-End 7-Bedroom HMO

Are you ready to discover the exciting transformation of a four-bedroom house into a luxurious 7-bedroom House in Multiple Occupation (HMO)? At Tranquility Homes, we pride ourselves on introducing high-end, premium ensuite rooms to the private rental sector, catering specifically to working professionals. Join us on this journey as we maximize the potential of this property and create excellent cash flow for its owner.

Our journey began with a run-down four-bedroom student house. With careful planning alongside the owner and architect, we designed a conversion that optimizes space and functionality. The ground floor now boasts two large ensuite rooms and an open-plan kitchen/living area, while the first floor houses three spacious ensuite rooms. To further increase the property's potential, we fully utilized the loft space, transforming it into two additional ensuite rooms. Throughout the conversion, we prioritized modern and funky design, collaborating with talented designers to create a visually stunning and comfortable living space.

Quality and attention to detail were paramount in our conversion. We spared no expense in selecting premium products to create a high-end offering for the market. The ensuite rooms feature large showers, sinks with vanity units, and beautifully tiled flooring. Comfort was also a priority, and we adorned the rooms with high-quality carpets. To enhance the residents' experience, we implemented combo locks on all doors for added security, installed motion-sensor lighting in communal areas, and ensured high-speed internet connectivity throughout the property.

Living in an HMO offers numerous advantages, particularly for working professionals. It provides an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals from day one, fostering a sense of community and expanding your network. Moreover, the rental prices are all-inclusive, simplifying financial management. In many cases, the ensuite rooms are as spacious as small flats, providing residents with a comfortable and private living space within a shared environment.

If you're looking to create a high cash-flow rental business with minimal hands-on involvement, partnering with Tranquility Homes is the perfect solution. We can assist you in sourcing suitable properties, overseeing their conversion into high-end HMOs, and managing the assets on an ongoing basis. Let us handle the details while you enjoy the benefits. Get in touch with us today to explore the exciting projects we can work on together.
