Description
Smiths Property Experts are favoured with instructions to market this immaculate and substantial four-bedroom detached family home, constructed in 2023 by the highly regarded David Wilson Homes, to the popular ‘Holden’ design.
This beautifully presented family home is offered in true ‘turnkey’ condition, having been upgraded and substantially improved by the current owners, who purchased it brand new. The property has the benefit of 7 years of NHBC warranty remaining, and there are landscaped west-facing rear gardens, an oversized driveway, and a garage to the right-hand side. Internally, the floorplan is excellent, offering three main reception areas including a ‘living’ kitchen, four double bedrooms, and two and a half bathrooms.
The Property
Internally, this substantial detached family home boasts approximately 1,550 square feet of living space laid across two floors, and is finished to a superb standard throughout in arguably better-than-new condition.
With UPVC double glazing and gas central heating throughout, and an excellent EPC rating of ‘B’, expect to find the accommodation centred around a light-filled entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first-floor landing. There are two reception rooms to the front, namely a playroom/study, and an impressive formal sitting room with bay window, wall panelling and a newly installed feature fireplace. There is also a WC and under-stairs storage, and to the rear a beautiful ‘living’ kitchen with immaculate shaker-style kitchen and glazed ‘box bay’ with French doors leading onto the west-facing gardens. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room.
Upstairs, all laid around a central landing with a useful airing cupboard, are four double bedrooms and an immaculate four-piece family bathroom with a walk-in shower. The principal bedroom is of particular note; a pretty room with feature panelling designed around the headboard, two sets of fitted wardrobes, and a private en-suite shower room.
The Outside
The property occupies a good-sized plot. Immaculately kept and set behind fully planted front gardens, there is a larger-than-usual driveway to the right-hand side. The garage is also of larger proportion than a standard single, and from upstairs there are views to the front of neighbouring countryside. To the rear are secure and newly landscaped west-facing gardens. Ideal for a family, there are central lawns, planted borders and two raised beds. There is also a sun-drenched entertaining patio to the immediate rear of the main house.Agents Note
There will be a service charge for properties on The Skylarks development. The commencement date is to be confirmed.The Location

There are also several independent shops, coffee shops, pubs, and eateries. Access to Loughborough and Nottingham is easy via car or a regular bus service.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- 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).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus 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).
