This beautifully presented three bedroom detached home is located on the popular Gleesons development and is approximately 12 months old, offering all the benefits of a modern home with the added advantage of owner upgrades throughout. Occupying a fantastic plot, the property boasts a large driveway providing parking for several vehicles, a generous garage, and newly landscaped gardens that really set it apart.
The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance hallway, a bright and comfortable lounge with a large understairs storage cupboard, and a stylish dining kitchen fitted with contemporary units and patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden, perfect for everyday living and entertaining. A convenient ground floor WC completes the layout. The interiors are fresh, modern and thoughtfully finished, reflecting the care and attention the current owners have invested since moving in.

There are two further well proportioned bedrooms alongside a modern family bathroom. Outside, the beautifully landscaped rear garden includes artificial lawn and an Indian stone patio, ideal for low-maintenance enjoyment.

  • 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).
