Description

Ben Rose are delighted to present to the market this two bedroom, semi-detached bungalow that rests in a highly desirable area of Eccleston, Chorley. This deceptively spacious property is being presented with NO ONWARDS CHAIN and offers versatile living space throughout, making the ideal family home. Located within easy access to nearby Eccleston village with its abundance of excellent shops and amenities, highly regarded local schools are also on hand. For commuters there is easy access to the motorway links along with Chorley, Leyland and Preston town centre being just a short drive away.

Moving into the property you'll find a welcoming entrance hall that gives access to the majority of rooms. Here, you'll find a spacious lounge with a feature fireplace and a large front facing window that brings in ample natural light. Moving back into the hall, you'll find two double sized bedrooms. You'll also find a three piece family bathroom with a shower cubicle.
Completing the home is the kitchen that is located towards the rear. It features an integrated oven as well as space for other freestanding appliances to be fitted.

Externally, to the front of the property is a front garden as well as a drive with space for up to four cars. This also leads to the single detached garage at the rear. At the rear is an enclosed private garden that features a patio for social gathers and an astro turfed lawn for easy maintenance.

  • 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.
