Description

Elliotts are delighted to offer this SUPERBLY PRESENTED period home with FOUR LARGE DOUBLE BEDROOMS & FOUR BATHROOMS, a recently modernised KITCHEN/BREAKFAST room with BI-FOLD DOORS onto the REAR GARDEN and located in the popular Highdown/Lyndhurst District.

An opportunity to acquire this fabulous period home which has undergone a sympathetic programme of modernisation over the last 18 years. The Lyndhurst/Highdown area is immensely popular for couples with young families, given the proximity to many excellent local schools. An example of the family ethos of the area is the regular children's street parties that are held throughout the year.

Accommodation is arranged over three floors in total, with the loft having been converted to a superb master suite with a luxury en-suite and walk-in wardrobe area. The remaining bedrooms are on the first floor and unusually these are all excellent size double bedrooms, a family bathroom also serves this floor.

The ground floor is where the house comes into its own, with an excellent formal lounge to the South, a separate TV room in the middle and a feature kitchen/breakfast room to the rear, which has the excellent advantage of bi-fold doors leading you onto the garden. Additional benefits also include a ground floor shower room/WC and a particularly useful utility area with space for washing machine and a further appliance.

As is common with properties within this area, the rear garden is laid to a patio, although on this occasion it has been elevated and benefits from a good amount of sun in the hotter months. Furthermore there is a useful side return for storage and rear access which takes you onto Glendale Road.

  • 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).
