Description
The house is entered via an entrance lobby with stairs to the first floor. To the left is a large sitting room with windows to front and side elevations and an open fire creating a cosy living space. On the other side of the entrance lobby is a second reception rooms again with windows to two elevations and an open fire. This room is ideally suited as a dining room being positioned off the kitchen. Stripped wooden flooring extends throughout the ground floor reception rooms. An extension to the rear accommodates the kitchen and stretches the full width of the house. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units and a free-standing range cooker with gas hob and electric ovens (the range cooker is included in the sale). A large, built in pantry provides useful storage with a further under stairs pantry. There are two windows to the rear elevation providing loads of natural light and an external door leading to the rear garden.
To the first floor is a landing looking out to the rear elevation. Two double bedrooms look out to the front of the house with bedroom one benefitting from built in wardrobes. Both bedrooms are served by the bathroom which is fitted with a white suite including panel bath with shower over and a vanity wash basin with cupboards below. At the opposite end of the landing is a separate W.C.
The property is approached through double wrought iron gates onto a gravel driveway providing off road parking for at least two cars. There is access down the side of the house to a large, fully enclosed rear garden which features two decked seating areas, one of which has a timber pergola overhead. In addition there is a useful wooden garden shed, water tap and a small border with fruit trees.
A charming property with great character which is well worth a detailed inspection.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- This street — Gross yield for this street only (Land Registry sales + rental comparables, same postcode + street).
- 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).
