Masters House offers a rare opportunity to acquire a high-quality purpose-built student accommodation asset in one of the most prestigious education markets in the world—Cambridge. This freehold property comprises 80 en-suite student bedrooms arranged across ground plus two upper floors with shared kitchens, private courtyard, and on-site laundry facilities. Currently 100% leased on a 25-year agreement to Cambridge Education Group Limited, the lease runs until August 2039, with a tenant-only break option in 2029.

With 48,000 full-time students and an undersupply of PBSA beds, Cambridge continues to experience strong occupancy trends, creating a secure and resilient investment with significant potential upside through refurbishment at break or lease expiry.

What factors influence commercial property values?
Property values can be affected by location, building quality, asset size, lease terms, tenant covenant strength, redevelopment potential and local market conditions. For investment properties, income generation and yield are also important considerations.
What types of commercial property are available to buy?
The market may include offices, retail units, industrial properties, warehouses, land, mixed-use buildings and specialist assets. Availability will vary depending on location and current market conditions.
What should I consider before buying commercial property?
Key considerations include location, accessibility, property condition, planning permissions, lease arrangements, operating costs and future growth potential. Buyers should also understand any legal, environmental or structural issues that could affect value or usability.
What is rental yield and why does it matter?
Rental yield measures the income generated by a property relative to its purchase price. Investors often use yield to compare opportunities, although it should be considered alongside factors such as tenant quality, lease length and potential for capital growth.

Due diligence typically includes reviewing title documents, planning permissions, leases, service charge information, environmental matters and building condition reports. Professional legal and surveying advice is strongly recommended before completing a purchase.
What are the risks of buying commercial property?
Potential risks include market fluctuations, vacancy periods, tenant default, maintenance costs, planning restrictions and changes in local demand. Thorough due diligence and effective asset management can help reduce these risks.
Can overseas buyers purchase commercial property in the UK?
Yes. International buyers can purchase commercial property in the UK, although additional legal, tax and regulatory considerations may apply. Professional advice should be obtained before proceeding with a transaction.
What additional costs should I budget for?
