## Description

JOINT AGENTS - TO BE SOLD AT AUCTION 04 June 2026

Strettons

A recently constructed ground floor apartment with immaculate accommodation throughout, situated within easy reach of the harbour and with the added benefit of an allocated parking space.

Follow the steps from the parking area down to the lower floor of the building where you will find 1 Knot Barn. Enter into a bright hallway and through to a comfortable open plan living area. A dual aspect room enjoying lovely glimpses of the estuary, a contemporary fitted kitchen with built in Bosch appliances, and sliding doors out to an enclosed patio area.

There are two good sized double bedrooms with solid Oak furniture included. The master bedroom enjoys en-suite shower facilities and there is also a modern family bathroom off the hall too, both with contemporary, neutral tiling.

The luxury accommodation includes underfloor heating throughout and a Mechanical Ventilation system. There are maintained communal grounds and an allocated storage cage, ideal for beach equipment or bikes.

Located within an exclusive development on the edge of the town centre, 1 Knot Barn has the best of both worlds, a peaceful resting place but with the buzz of the town in just a two-minute walk. 1 Knot Barn would be an ideal holiday home with excellent rental potential and easy lock up and leave situation, or would be equally suitable as a private residence. 

Padstow is a highly desirable destination in the West Country. It is a striking harbour town, a working fishing port, and is surrounded by a stretch of coastline of outstanding natural beauty. Famous for it's selection of gourmet restaurants, including those of Rick Stein and Paul Ainsworth, Padstow offers an amazing culinary scene and several brilliant pubs and bars. Situated ideally by the South West Coast path for beautiful scenic walks, and of course, there are several stunning beaches within a short drive providing a huge choice of water sports.

**Average rent: £1,750/mo (1 listing)**

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.32% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £218,750
- **Target investor price (1%):** £175,000

*Monthly rent ÷ price. 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak. Max investor price = rent ÷ 0.8% (Stoke-style target). Target investor price = rent ÷ 1% (strong cashflow band). Based on OpenRent comparables.*

- **Monthly cashflow:** £-616/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -4.6%

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
