A beautifully presented and significantly improved two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, occupying a highly sought-after residential position within easy reach of local amenities, Sandbach town centre, Sandbach Golf Club, and the surrounding Cheshire countryside.

Constructed by the highly regarded Price Brothers, the property offers spacious and well-balanced accommodation throughout, enhanced by a quality rear extension, attractive mature gardens, ample off-road parking, and a detached garage.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall providing practical storage space before leading into a generously proportioned bay-fronted lounge. This inviting reception room enjoys views over the front garden and is centred around a feature fireplace, creating an ideal space for relaxation and everyday living.

A separate formal dining room provides excellent space for entertaining and family dining, whilst also offering potential for reconfiguration with the adjacent kitchen, subject to any necessary consents. The extended kitchen has been thoughtfully designed and fitted with an attractive range of timeless shaker-style units, extensive work surfaces, integrated appliances including a Bosch oven and Electrolux hob, and enjoys an abundance of natural light from windows to multiple elevations overlooking the rear garden.

An inner hallway provides access to the bedroom accommodation and the refitted shower room.

The second bedroom is a versatile room suitable for a variety of uses including guest accommodation, a home office or hobby room and is complemented by useful built-in storage.

The accommodation is completed by a stylish and contemporary shower room, fitted with a large quadrant shower enclosure, quality sanitaryware, attractive tiling, and modern fittings throughout.

Externally, the property enjoys particularly well-maintained gardens. The front garden is attractively landscaped and enhances the property's excellent kerb appeal, whilst a long driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the detached garage. The private rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged to create a peaceful outdoor environment, featuring a block-paved seating terrace adjoining the property, a well-kept lawn, established stocked borders, additional seating areas, and a useful garden shed. The detached garage benefits from power and lighting, providing excellent storage, workshop potential, or secure parking.

- **Rent ratio:** 0.36% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £111,000
- **Target investor price (1%):** £88,800

*Monthly rent ÷ price. 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak. Max investor price = rent ÷ 0.8% (Stoke-style target). Target investor price = rent ÷ 1% (strong cashflow band). Based on OpenRent comparables.*

- **Monthly cashflow:** £-210/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -3.5%

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − 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).*
