Description

Located in a highly sought after area of Horsforth, this two bedroom bungalow is neutrally decorated throughout and offers so much potential for extension. With a lovely rear garden and double garage, the property occupies a fantastic sized plot.

Entering into the spacious hallway, there is ample space along with a useful storage cupboard. The lounge is a bright, sunny room with french doors opening onto the rear garden. A multi-fuel stove within the hearth creates a cosy and homely feel, and there is space for both lounge and dining areas. The kitchen is fitted with white cabinets and offers space for freestanding appliances such as fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. There is a door leading to the rear porch, a great space for a utility area or keeping dirty shoes out of the house!

The master bedroom is a generous sized double bedroom, and the second bedroom is another double room with dual aspect windows, allowing light to flood in. The modern shower room is fitted with a large walk-in shower, sink and w/c.

The rear garden has a great sized lawn and borders for plants, with a patio area directly outside the french doors, perfect for alfresco dining and soaking up the summer sun. The double garage has an electric remote controlled garage door and a power supply, perfect for storage of garden tools, furniture and car parking. A large drive runs up the side of the house, offering space for multiple cars.

Brownberrie Crescent is within easy reach of local shopping facilities, bars & restaurants and well regarded schools for all ages. Horsforth Cricket Club is located at the bottom of the road, hosting sports games, clubs and a bar with outdoor seating to enjoy in the summertime. Transport links are easily found with frequent buses on Brownberrie Lane and Horsforth Train Station a short walk away.

  • 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.
