Description

WHAT A SETTING - If you`ve ever dreamed of owning a home that sits neatly tucked away in a peaceful cul de sac whilst overlooking a green but yet you can be in town within minutes, then this place is for you. Do also note that the seller has already found a property which has no onward chain!

Our sellers have done a fantastic job at improving and maintaining this family home since they took ownership which makes it ideal for today`s buyer to literally move in and drop their furniture.

The house has a garage and driveway parking the other side of the adjoining semi-detached property so you will notice, like I did the first time I visited, that you never see any cars on the road in this location!

The downstairs layout lends itself perfectly to both upsizers, downsizers and first-time buyers as it has three seperate reception rooms which add to the versatility that this home offers.

As you enter you will find a downstairs cloakroom to your right and as you make your way up the hallway will then find the living room to the right with the dining room positioned just behind.
The kitchen comprises white gloss contemporary units with a contrasting wood effect worktop with an integrated gas hob, oven and plenty of space for your usual appliances such as washing machine, dishwasher and fridge freezer.

You can access the conservatory off the kitchen but it also open to the dining room which means the house has a lovely flow which, in turn, means the conservatory has many uses.

As you would expect, the conservatory enjoys views over the well manicured rear garden which benefits from having a south westerly aspect so you can enjoy the sun throughout the day but particularly in the evenings where it beams down over a large patio area. You`ll notice too that the garden is extremely private and benefits from having a shed for additional storage.

Upstairs the house is really well proportioned and unlike many houses in its price range, it has an en suite to the master bedroom. Both the family bathroom and en suite are in extremely good condition and you get the feeling that this home has been really well looked after. The master bedroom also has built in wardrobes.

As mentioned before, this location is idyllic as you`ve got the green just opposite but the development is surrounded by woodland, ideal for dog walking or bike riding. What`s more, you are also within easy reach of the A329m making this place the commuters dream.

We could go on forever about this home but let us show you it in person; just give us a call.

  • 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).
