Description
Set back from the road behind a large driveway, the property also conveniently offers a garage with electric garage door & gated side access. With a well thought out layout, it has a beautiful central entrance hallway, with the fully fitted, pleasant kitchen on the front that has room for all appliances including a dishwasher. Being kept in excellent condition, it has so much cupboard & worktop space. We love the full width lounge which feels so cosy & private being rear facing. With a high a contemporary feel & beautiful french doors into the conservatory, the sense of space is amplified especially with having the extra space - currently utilised as a separate dining room & it is gas centrally heated too.
The stairs can be found in the hallway next to the useful understairs storage cupboard. On the first floor there are three very generous bedrooms with two doubles and a large single. The third bedroom is unusually large for a single which is a great plus. To complete there is a stunning modernised house bathroom with a very pleasant white suite which includes a bath, overhead shower, wash hand basin & WC. One of our favourite things about this house is the unexpected amazing views from the rear - go & take a look for yourself!
Outside there is a lovely flat rear garden which has been very well maintained & landscaped, with a patio, pleasant lawn, storage shed & borders.
If you are looking for your first home or even looking to downsize a little, this is a great shout & a fantastic home ready for its new chapter. We are advised it is freehold.
All interested parties who wish to make an offer will be required to show proof of ID, proof of funds including proof of deposit, mortgage in principle or proof of cash. We are also happy to assist people that require a mortgage so please get in touch with us & we will help you in any way we can.

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).
