The Property
Built in December 2024, this property benefits from the remaining Persimmon Homes 2-year customer care warranty, providing added peace of mind for any qualifying defects or repairs. The property also benefits from the remainder of the 10-year NHBC Buildmark warranty.

Situated on the ever-popular Farmstead Drive in Bolton, this modern three storey mid town house offers spacious and versatile accommodation, making it an ideal purchase for first time buyers, growing families or those seeking a stylish home with excellent commuter links. Beautifully presented.

The accommodation begins with an entrance porch leading into a bright and welcoming living room, providing a comfortable space for relaxing and entertaining. An inner hallway gives access to a convenient ground floor W.C. and leads through to the impressive rear facing kitchen/diner. Fitted with a range of modern units and offering ample space for dining, this room forms the heart of the home. Patio doors open directly onto the rear garden.

To the first floor there are two well-proportioned bedrooms together with a modern family bathroom fitted with a contemporary suite. Occupying the entire second floor is the superb master bedroom suite, providing a private and peaceful retreat. This generous room benefits from a spacious en suite shower room and excellent proportions throughout.

Externally, the property enjoys driveway parking to the front, providing convenient off-road parking. To the rear is an enclosed garden, ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing, with space suitable for families and pets alike.

  • 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).
