Description

FINAL PLOT REMAINING
THE LANDER (PLOT 8)
With NO ONWARD CHAIN this brand NEW HOME is READY TO VIEW and READY TO MOVE INTO.
A traditional semi-detached family home, The Lander is approached over a driveway that provides off-road parking, as well as access a garage. A timber gate grants private access to an enclosed rear terrace and lawn garden.
The Lander enters beneath sheltering canopy into practical entrance hallway with separate doors leading to a cloakroom, a family sitting room and a sociable kitchen and dining area with double doors to the rear terrace and lawn garden.
To the first floor, this traditional family home offers a family bathroom and three bedrooms.
THE DEVELOPMENT
A niche collection of classically designed homes surrounded by a patchwork quilt of countryside.
Located almost centrally and yet on the fringe of the village, the Lions Close development is a collection of 2, 3 and 4-bedroom homes with a blend of detached single storey homes, houses and semi-detached houses that will benefit from enclosed gardens, garaging and ample open space.
LOCATION
The pretty, rural village of Southery rests due south of the bustling historic port town of King's Lynn, amongst a prominent patchwork of rich agricultural fields and woven between the tapestry of former marshland dykes from whence it derived its Old English name - the 'Southern Island'.
The village ably provides the necessary amenities to enjoy a modern rural lifestyle, with a village shop, hairdressers, a garage, a primary school and a welcoming 'local' that states it is 'more than just a pub for drinking and eating, it's a place to foster community and connect people across generations'.
Perched on the banks of the River Ouse, the nearby port town of King's Lynn has been a centre of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is reflected in the many beautiful buildings which still line the historic quarter.
King Street, which runs from Tuesday Market Place to the Custom House, was once known as 'Stockfish Row' for the number of fish merchants that lived there. With a listed building every 26ft, Sir John Betjeman described it as one of the finest walks in England.
With Cambridge, Peterborough and Norwich all within an hour's drive and a direct rail line into London King's Cross arriving in the capital in just 1 hour 40 minutes, King's Lynn continues to attract a growing number of professionals seeking an easy commuter route. It's easy to see the appeal of this central location with a clutch of high street retailers and independent restaurants in the town's Vancouver Centre. The Majestic Cinema and King's Lynn Alive Corn Exchange are the place to catch a film or show, or check out what's on at St George's Guildhall, the UK's largest surviving medieval guildhall, today a vibrant arts centre.
A stunning cluster of Georgian architecture sits to the west of town and the streets surrounding The Walks, a Grade II listed, 17-hectare park where elegant folk once promenaded. Families still enjoy weekend walk or a Sunday concert in the park and don't miss The Red Mount, once a wayside stop for pilgrims headed to the shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham, to take in the incredible, elevated views.

  • Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
  • Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
  • 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).
