Benefiting from a driveway, front and rear gardens, and well-proportioned living space, the property is perfectly suited to modern family life.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a bright entrance hall which provides access to the main accommodation. The lounge is situated to the front of the property and offers a comfortable and inviting space in which to relax and unwind. With ample room for a range of furnishings, this attractive reception room provides the perfect setting for both everyday living and entertaining guests.

The kitchen is equipped with a range of fitted units and work surfaces, providing practical storage and preparation space, while the dining area offers ample room for family meals and social gatherings. The rear-facing aspect allows for plenty of natural light, creating a bright and welcoming environment. An inner hallway leads to a useful ground-floor W.C., adding further convenience for family living and visitors alike.
The first-floor landing gives access to three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom offers comfortable accommodation with space for freestanding furniture, while the remaining bedrooms are ideal for children, guests, or those requiring a home office. Completing the first-floor accommodation is the family bathroom, fitted with a modern suite designed to cater for the needs of a growing household.

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).
