## Description

A charming home in a popular area of Cheltenham, with super proximity to the Town Centre and great access to commuting links, offered with no onward chain.

**Full Description** - Entering the property into a useful hallway, we then find a cosy reception room. 

With a large window offering ample light, and in super decorative order, this is a lovely space to curl up in and relax. Double doors lead into the open plan kitchen diner, allowing you separate feel or indeed allowing a social flow from one room into the other should you be entertaining!

The kitchen is a bright space with room for dining, or a further cosy seating area if you wish.

This room also provides access into that lovely garden, and a patio area for further entertaining.

Upstairs the property houses three bedrooms, two generous doubles and a further, smaller, third. These are serviced by a tidy family bathroom to the rear of the property.

| 3 Bed Semi-Detached House, Cheltenham, GL51 | £1,600/mo | 3 | 0.89 miles | OpenRent |

**Average rent: £1,600/mo (1 listing)**

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.53% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £200,000
- **Target investor price (1%):** £160,000

*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.*

## Rent-driven metrics

*Based on OpenRent comparables (median £1,600/mo).*

- **Gross yield:** 6.4%
- **Cost-to-rent:** 15.6×
- **Monthly cashflow:** £234/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** 3.2%

*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).*
