## Description

Take a moment to admire this exceptional five bedroom, three bathroom detached family home, previously built by Laurus Homes. It is available to purchase with no onward chain and perfectly suited to those hopefully looking for a smooth and swift transaction.

It stands on a larger than average corner plot toward the head of this quiet cul-de-sac (some distance from the Manchester Road), boasting wrap around professionally landscaped gardens.

Whilst it might not be apparent from the front photograph it also benefits from a double width driveway and detached garage (located at the side of the house).

The accommodation is cavernous affording three reception areas including a dual aspect living room and versatile home office (equally as comfortable as a playroom or additional sitting room). It’s a light and bright salubrious space with an open plan kitchen diner at its heart. This is the perfect enclave for receiving guests and exactly the space families search for. Amongst the five first floor generous bedrooms, there are designated master and guest suites. Upstairs, the higher than normal ceiling heights are particularly evident and promote a really spacious environment.

Situated in a highly regarded area on the outskirts of the town, toward the North of Congleton. 

It is an outstanding location with a couple of convenience stores, a choice of supermarkets and retail parks close by and some very beautiful open green spaces (including Westlow Mere) all within the immediate vicinity. 

Cementing it's appeal, is it's proximity to Eaton Bank Academy, which is within walking distance. 

Lower Heath has outstanding transport and communication links with the A34 and the opening of the new Wolstanholme Elmy Way bypass offering excellent access of the North West motorway network.

Closer inspection is highly recommended. Why not start by taking a moment to admire our immersive, interactive virtual tour.

| Title | Rent | Beds | Distance | As seen on |
|------|------|------|------|------|
| [School Lane, Eaton, Congleton](http://87.117.209.195:8080/listings/df8c60e) | £2,500/mo | 5 | 0.99 miles | Rightmove |

**Average rent: £2,500/mo (1 listing)**

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.52% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £312,500
- **Target investor price (1%):** £250,000

*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.*

- **Cost-to-rent:** 16.2×
- **Monthly cashflow:** £315/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** 2.7%

*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).*
