Description

An outstanding four bedroom detached family home, which is located in an enviable cul-de-sac of only 6 high quality homes that rarely come to the market.

The accommodation features three reception areas including a remodelled open plan kitchen diner at its heart. This is the perfect enclave for receiving guests and exactly the space young families search for. Garages are seldom used for parking these days, so one half of it has been converted to create a flexible home office or playroom.

The plot extends to approximately 0.12 acres or thereabouts; that's considerable by comparison to many modern homes. The rear garden enjoys a great degree of privacy and is not overlooked. It faces directly due South and and will enjoy the longest duration of sunlight of any orientation, with sunshine throughout the day.

Ravenscroft is located toward the West of Holmes Chapel and is a privileged location only a short walk to Holmes Chapel Comprehensive School. It is a highly sought area, with a mix of family friendly homes and a strong community feel.

At weekends the car does not need to leave the drive, the village offers a blend of cultural and leisure activities; It hosts a number of independent and chain shops and when combined with the broad range of cafes, restaurants and bars it is effortlessly possible to while away the hours and unwind from the working week with family and friends.

It is located amongst the Cheshire countryside and you are never far from a picturesque scene fit for a postcard. It is very fortunate to enjoy some very beautiful open green spaces, with the likes of Dane Meadow on your doorstep and Boundary Water Park and Brereton Heath Nature Reserve only a very short drive away.

Holmes Chapel provides excellent access of the North West Motorway network. It is a very short drive to Junction 18 of the M6 and trunk roads readily connect Stoke-On-Trent and Manchester. It is only a short walk from Holmes Chapel Railway Station which sits on the Crewe to Manchester Line and provides frequent access to both.

Closer inspections are highly recommended, why not start by taking a moment to admire our immersive, interactive virtual tour.

  • 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.
