The main lounge is bay fronted with stained glass, a crackling fireplace plus tastefully restored period features such as ceiling Roses and picture rails! Moving to the rear you arrive into the living kitchen that’s just sure to be the hub of the home! Beautifully designed and very well proportioned, this is certainly a place for entertaining and relaxing by the restored range fireplace! The kitchen is designed with modern living in mind but blends seamlessly into the charm and era of the entire home. Glazed doors open out into the fantastic rear gardens which enjoy a vast lawn and a covered entertaining terrace. It's worthy of note there was once a detached garage at the foot of the garden. The ground floor continues to impress with the useful additions of a handy utility room. Upstairs enjoys three very good sized bedrooms, all of which enjoy immaculate presentation and great character, not to mention pleasant Mossley views of th enearbvy bowling green and aforementioned lanws! Of particular note is the bathroom suite that enjoys stunning period pieces presented immaculately.

The homes location means you;re immersed in village life whilst having the serenity of your large lawns providing the very best of both worlds. The well supported village parade enjoys all the amenities you could need including a chemist, post office, convenience stores, hairdressers, bakers, chip shop, great pubs and much more!

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.37% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £175,000
- **Target investor price (1%):** £140,000

*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:** £-261/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -2.8%

*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).*
