The elegant accommodation, presented to a high standard and extending to almost 400 square metres, is entered from a central and most imposing reception hallway with marble tiled floor and cloakroom. The hallway provides access to all principal rooms including glass panelled bi-folding doors to the dining room ideal for entertaining with further French windows opening to rear exterior. The remaining reception rooms include a study and living room both having attractive woodblock flooring to include an elegant marble fireplace and further French windows opening to rear exterior within the living room. At the opposite end of the hallway is a fourth reception family room facing to the front of the property with further feature stone fireplace and large square bay window. The family breakfast kitchen has Bespoke fitted units with marble worktops including a large island unit providing breakfast area. There is an extensive range of various incorporated appliances including separate steam oven and coffee machine. In turn the kitchen leads to a fifth reception/breakfast room with feature full height window facing to the front. Accessed from here is a large utility/second kitchen with separate laundry room.
A return staircase from the reception hall leads to a large landing on the first floor with access to all bedrooms having solid oak doors and architraves. The master bedroom has a separate walk-in dressing room and luxury en suite shower room. Both the guest bedroom and third bedroom also have independent en suite bath/shower suites, with the remaining two bedrooms on this floor sharing a fourth bathroom suite.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- 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).
- 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.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
