Description
The property is set back from the road with the lawned frontage having a variety of planted borders. There is a tarmac driveway which sweeps down towards the property, with the detached double garage having electric up and over door to the front.
A covered porch gives access to the main hallway, with doors leading off to the various rooms. The property is well laid out with the bedrooms to one side and the living accommodation to the other.
There are three bedrooms, with bedroom one having extensive integrated storage and the benefit of its own en suite shower room, with a walk in shower, WC, bidet and hand wash basin.
Bedroom two enjoys a delightful dual aspect, with window overlooking the rear garden and patio doors opening to the covered and decked area which is adjacent to the pond.
The third bedroom has been utilised as a study, creating an ideal space for use that may wish to work from home. With storage units and a desk area, this also offers views out on to the rear garden.
Also servicing the bedrooms, the equally impressive family bathroom is tiled and has a white suite comprised of a panelled bath with shower over, hand wash vanity unit and low level WC.
Undoubtedly the heart of this home is the inviting and cosy lounge. Natural light floods in thanks to dual aspect windows to the side and rear, in addition to patio doors offering access out. The centrepiece is a living flame gas fire, inset into the wall.
The adjacent dining area offers another reception space, with ample room for a dining table - ideal for big family mealtimes.
Offering a range of storage at both eye and base level, the kitchen has also been refitted by the present owners to an exacting standard, having an inset sink and drainer unit, dishwasher and space for a cooker, with overhead extractor.
Beyond this, the utility room offers additional storage space as well as a further sink and drainer unit, with appliance space and plumbing for a washing machine.
Externally, the property enjoys a delightful south facing rear garden with an open rear aspect. The outside space is a real standout feature of this home, having a lawn, patio and summerhouse flanked by maintained borders.
To the side, there is a decked area which overlooks the sizeable pond. Beyond this, steps lead down to a further garden area, laid with gravel and having raised planters - ideal for those wanting to grow their own!
The property also benefits from solar panels to the south facing roof space, which are included in the sale.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- 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).
