Description

Beautifully presented and well proportioned semi-detached house that has been comprehensively renovated throughout to create a contemporary light and airy living space. The accommodation comprises three bedrooms, two of which are large double and a smartly appointed family bathroom on the first floor. Downstairs the reception hallway leads to beautifully designed kitchen, cloakroom and a large dual aspect, open plan styled living room which in turn opens to a large conservatory to the rear.

Externally there are newly landscaped gardens to both the front and rear which wrap around the side due to the larger than average corner plot. A driveway to the rear leads to a detached garage providing ample off-road parking and storage.

Pleasantly situated in a highly regarded residential location just off Sandridge Road on the Eastern side of Melksham the property is well placed to take advantage of local through routes and a wide range of amenities found in the town centre which is just over a mile away.

  • 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).
