EPC Rating: E
Offered to the market 'chain free' is this very large detached bungalow located in a semi-rural spot but still within a 5 minute drive of Ryde and the sea front. A large frontage offers ample parking for several vehicles while to the side and rear is a large garden area that includes a deck and swimming pool. The bungalow benefits from several extensions over the years and now offers a large lounge/living area, a modern kitchen/diner as well as 3 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to the ground floor with a loft extension creating a large 4th bedroom with en-suite WC and balcony with countryside views to the upper floor. The property is in need of modernisation throughout and the garden requires clearing and landscaping but once completed this would be a wonderful, spacious family home in a lovely area complete with its own pool.
This property is a leasehold.

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).
