Take a bow, Bowmead. With four bedrooms, multiple reception spaces, a double garage and parking for a small fleet of cars, this detached family home offers generous proportions both inside and out.
Bowmead Close enjoys a pleasant residential setting with excellent access to local amenities, schools and commuter links, making it a fantastic option for growing families seeking space and practicality. One of the area's hidden gems is the nearby canal, offering scenic waterside walks right on your doorstep. Follow the towpath for around half an hour and you'll find yourself at the popular Plume of Feathers, making this a wonderful location for those who enjoy getting outdoors and exploring the local countryside on foot.
The property is approached via an extensive driveway providing parking for up to five vehicles, alongside a detached double garage beside which and accessed from inside the garage is a unique Aviary, useful as an extra storage space.
Stepping inside, the welcoming entrance hallway is finished with attractive tiled flooring and provides access to the first-floor accommodation via the staircase. A useful guest WC is positioned off the hallway.
To the left, the spacious living room is filled with natural light thanks to a lovely bay window and centres around a gas fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point. An archway leads seamlessly through to the dining room, providing an excellent layout for entertaining and family gatherings.
The dining room continues through sliding doors into the impressive conservatory, a generous space spanning the rear of the property and providing an excellent additional reception area overlooking the garden.
The kitchen can be accessed from both the hallway and dining room and continues the attractive tiled flooring. A practical utility area sits at the entrance to the kitchen, offering space for both a washing machine and dryer, alongside room for an American-style fridge freezer.
The main kitchen area is well-equipped with a Rangemaster cooker featuring a five-burner hob and hot plate, an integrated dishwasher and ample worktop and storage space. A generous under-stairs cupboard provides further practical storage. The kitchen also enjoys direct access to the conservatory, creating a natural flow between the living spaces and enhancing the sociable layout of the home.
Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for low-maintenance enjoyment. A paved patio extends from the property before steps lead up to the main garden level. A paved pathway runs through the garden, separating a decorative pebbled area from an artificial lawn, before leading to a further paved seating area spanning the width of the rear boundary. The patio also continues around the side of the house, providing gated access to the driveway.
Upstairs, the first floor offers three generous double bedrooms and a well-proportioned single bedroom. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by an immaculate family bathroom fitted with a shower over the bath. A useful storage cupboard completes the landing.
Offering excellent living space, versatile reception rooms and plenty of parking, this is a superb family home with space to accommodate modern family life.

  • 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).
