Both properties are in the same house...yep, the same house, which is why they make a good comparison as all other factors are equal. The upstairs has been converted into a 2 bed split level maisonette and the ground floor into a decent size 1 bed. Done to top spec so a walk in investment if that's what floats your boat...
Option 1 - The One Bed
So this is the ground floor with a private 'patio' so, unfortunately, not a proper garden. On at £299,950 you would get around £1100pcm for it making a yield of 4.4%

Option 2 - The Two Bed
Looks the same huh?! It pretty much is apart from this one is the top 2 floors so obviously a lot more space. On at £399,950 you would get more like £1300pcm for this one which would give you a yield of 3.9%.
With no other factors to consider such as location, and the fact that rental demand for one beds in Teddington is higher than for 2 beds, I think I've made my mind up! :o)
