Description
LocationGrange-over-Sands is an Edwardian seaside resort which continues to be popular with holiday makers throughout the year. The town offers a wide range of amenities including local butchers, newsagents, mini-marts, post office, library, pubs and craft and clothes shops as well as train and road access, walks along the seafront promenade and regular art and craft exhibitions within the town. Its access to The Lakes via the southern tip of Lake Windermere also makes Grange a popular holiday-home base for second-home owners
Our ViewAlfriston offers well proportioned accommodation for a variety of purchasers looking for permanent or second home purposes. Its manageable plot size still offers some good outside space for those keen gardeners as well as the driveway parking to accompany the integral garage. The sizes of the lounge and dining kitchen are particular features and a viewing is recommended by us to appreciate the benefit of the southerly aspect which these rooms as well as the sun room to the rear all have

Rent-driven metrics
Based on Area rent estimate.
- 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).
