The original kitchen and dining room have been re-designed and now have a modern, light and spacious open plan design. Kitchen units have been replaced and now feature a range of Shaker style units below roll top work surfaces with a tiled splashback. Built-in appliances comprise an electric oven with glass top hob and Stainless Steel cooker hood above. Space has also been made for a dishwasher and washing machine with the new layout.
The accommodation is set off a wide entrance hall and the rooms are well proportioned with high ceilings creating genuine feeling of space.
In addition to the kitchen / dining room there is a bay fronted lounge, 3 good bedrooms and a redesigned bathroom / Wc which now incorporates a separate shower cubicle.
Gardens are particularly well established to the rear, stocked with a wide variety of plants and shrubs and nicely enclosed. A tarmacadam driveway to the side provides off road parking for several cars and access to a detached block built 30' x 11' (approx.) garage workshop.

- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
