Description
Dating from 1860, its name, ‘Maybell Cottage’, perfectly reflects the exceptional character. The scale, however, is anything but ‘Cottage’. With over 1600 square feet of accommodation, it is a properly equipped family home brimming with fantastic original features. In truth, it is a cottage without compromise. Excellent ceiling heights throughout, no less than three reception rooms in addition to a lovely, open plan, reception kitchen, along with a practical utility room and ground floor cloakroom provide outstanding flexibility for modern living with lashings of timeless charm.
Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, each with a beautiful outlook and their own distinct personality. Even more impressive is the gloriously indulgent shower room with fabulously eclectic tiling that seamlessly blends contemporary style and classical elegance.
For the keen gardener, the grounds will be a daily delight. An oasis of calm with extensive, mature borders, trees, and lawn, you really are in your very own natural wonderland away from the outside world. Beyond the gardens, there is a driveway for several vehicles and a detached garage need of some repair.
Ten minutes walk into the centre of the village of Weaverham, with its excellent schools and plentiful amenities, it is offers a peaceful setting with simple convenience.
This magical home with a tangible sense of history awaits its next custodian.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on Area rent estimate.
- 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).
