## Description

Located on highly regarded Knutsford Road in South Wilmslow, this impressive four-bedroom extended detached home provides beautifully appointed and exceptionally spacious accommodation throughout. Ideally positioned within walking distance of Wilmslow town centre, the property enjoys easy access to a wide range of shops, restaurants, bars and everyday amenities, while also falling within the catchment area for the highly regarded Ashdene Primary School, rated Outstanding by Ofsted. Having recently undergone a significant extension and comprehensive renovation, the property has been finished to an exceptional standard, combining contemporary design with thoughtful and practical family living. The property is approached via a substantial driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles. The attractive symmetrical façade features a central entrance, leading into a bright and welcoming entrance hallway. The hallway provides access to the principal ground floor rooms, with a spindled staircase rising to the first floor. The ground floor offers an impressive level of living accommodation, with three versatile reception rooms comprising a dedicated home office, a spacious living room and a separate family room. The living room benefits from an expansive set of bi-fold doors, creating a seamless connection with the rear garden and flooding the room with natural light. Also located off the entrance hall is a contemporary downstairs WC and a particularly useful, generous storage/cloakroom. At the heart of the home is the magnificent open-plan kitchen and dining space, which is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features.

The kitchen has been fitted with a high-quality kitchen, complemented by elegant white quartz work surfaces and a substantial central island, creating both a practical preparation area and an impressive focal point for entertaining. A comprehensive range of integrated appliances includes a wine cooler, induction hob and dishwasher, while bi-fold doors span the rear elevation, providing an abundance of natural light and direct access to the garden. A separate utility room continues the high-quality finish, featuring a further bank of matching kitchen cabinetry and space for laundry appliances. The kitchen also houses an ‘Ideal’ gas-fired boiler and a large integrated freezer. To the first floor, a generous landing provides access to four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, measuring approximately 6 metres in length and offering a wonderfully spacious and luxurious retreat. A contemporary freestanding bath occupies a prominent position within the room, creating a striking feature. The principal bedroom also benefits from a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room, fitted with a Villeroy & Boch white suite, Hansgrohe sanitaryware and stylish tiled finishes. Bi-fold doors provide further natural light and open onto a glazed Juliet balcony, adding to the sense of space and providing an attractive outlook. Bedrooms two and three are both well-proportioned and benefit from their own recently fitted en-suite shower rooms, each finished with quality sanitaryware and contemporary fittings. Bedroom four is currently utilised as a dressing room and features a comprehensive range of bespoke fitted wardrobes, providing excellent storage and flexibility for alternative use as a bedroom if required. Externally, the property enjoys a private, enclosed rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn with a paved patio area providing an ideal space for alfresco dining and outdoor entertaining. A perimeter pathway leads around to the front of the property. The property further benefits from a single garage, accessed via a private side access road, with an up-and-over door and power supply.

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.26% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £300,000
- **Target investor price (1%):** £240,000

*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:** £-1,508/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -6.7%

*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).*
