## Description

Tucked away on Richmond Avenue, this Victorian terrace is full of character, period details and even boasts sea views. From the moment you ascend the steps and cross the threshold, you're greeted by a classic Victorian hallway, complete with elegant tiled flooring, soaring ceilings and a useful understairs storage space.

The heart of the home is the living and dining area, a welcoming space flooded with natural light thanks to its large front-facing windows. The living room features a statement fireplace and comfortably accommodates a corner sofa, while flowing effortlessly into the dining space. Slightly separated by a partial wall, the dining area offers space for a four-seater table, freestanding furniture and includes built-in storage cupboards for added practicality.

The kitchen is contemporary in style, with generous worktop space, ample cabinetry, and room for a freestanding fridge freezer and oven. A sink beneath the rear window allows you to enjoy the elevated views while preparing meals. Just off the kitchen, the lean-to sunroom provides plumbing and space for a condenser dryer and washing machine, as well as extra storage, the perfect utility space leading out onto the patio garden.

The garden is a real hidden gem, a sunny, peaceful retreat framed by mature shrubs and planters, with just the right spot to enjoy a morning coffee or a quiet evening drink.

Upstairs on the mezzanine floor, the family bathroom is spacious and stylish, featuring a four-piece suite including a walk-in shower, WC, wash hand basin and bathtub. A second separate WC offers additional convenience for busy family mornings.

On the first floor, the master bedroom is truly special, a serene sanctuary with sweeping sea views, a striking fireplace, space for a double bed and a charming window seat where you can relax and take in the scenery. Adjacent, the second bedroom is another good-sized double with views over the rear elevation and space for all essential furnishings. The third bedroom, currently used for storage, would make an ideal nursery, guest room, or home office, enjoying plenty of natural light and lovely views to the front.

This home is ready to move into and would make a fantastic first-time buy or family home, offering generous space across three levels, an abundance of natural light, and timeless character features throughout. Located just a short walk from Ilfracombe town centre and harbour, you'll enjoy easy access to schools, independent shops, cafés and the stunning North Devon coastline, all while being tucked away in a peaceful residential street with those unbeatable sea views.

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.4% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £112,500
- **Target investor price (1%):** £90,000

*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.*

- **Monthly cashflow:** £-101/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -1.9%

*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).*
