Description

Situated in a highly sought-after area of Sandbach, this beautifully presented three-bedroom detached home occupies an enviable corner plot on Cestria Close. Perfectly positioned for modern family living, the property offers a fantastic balance of spacious accommodation and absolute convenience, sitting just a short distance from Sandbach train station—ideal for those looking for excellent commuter links.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a bright and practical ground floor layout. The heart of the home is a generous open-plan lounge and diner, providing a versatile space for both relaxing and entertaining. This room flows effortlessly into a wonderful conservatory at the rear, flooded with natural light and offering a seamless transition to the garden. The kitchen is well-appointed with a sleek integrated oven, while a separate downstairs cloakroom adds further day-to-day convenience. For those looking for excellent utility space, the integral garage includes handy plumbing and space for both a washing machine and a dryer.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three remarkably large bedrooms, completely avoiding the usual compromise of a small third bedroom. The master suite serves as a brilliant retreat, boasting stylish fitted wardrobes and its own private en-suite shower room. The remaining two substantial bedrooms share a well-sized family bathroom, and there is additional built-in storage off the landing.

Every inch of this home is well-presented throughout, meaning you can move straight in and start enjoying the space from day one. Externally, the corner plot provides a great degree of privacy and extra outdoor space, creating a lovely setting for summer evenings. Combined with its premium location close to local schools, amenities, and transport hubs, this property is an absolute must-see.

  • 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.
