## Description

CHAIN FREE | THREE BEDROOM SEMI-DETACHED | EXCEPTIONAL POTENTIAL

Offered to the market with no onward chain, this traditional three-bedroom semi-detached home presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers seeking a property with enormous potential to modernize, renovate and create a home tailored to their own tastes and lifestyle.

The property is approached via steps leading to the front door and benefits from front and rear gardens, together with side access to the rear. There is also vehicular access to the rear of the property via Windermere Road, where there is space to park a car, providing valuable off-road parking potential.

Internally, an entrance hall leads to two spacious reception rooms, including a bay-fronted living room and a rear reception room overlooking the garden. The kitchen provides access to an under-stairs pantry and a rear lobby, offering excellent scope to reconfigure into a utility room, larger kitchen space or open-plan living area, subject to any necessary consents. The lobby also provides access to a separate WC, former coal store and the rear garden.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom, airing cupboard and landing area.

The generous rear garden enjoys a private aspect and is not overlooked from the rear, providing plenty of outdoor space for families and further potential for enhancement. In addition, there is scope to create a driveway within the rear garden area, subject to any necessary permissions, while the front garden may also offer potential for off-road parking, making this an attractive proposition for buyers looking to maximize the property's practicality and value.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a chain-free property with significant scope for improvement, allowing the next owner to truly put their own stamp on the home and unlock its full potential. Ideally located close to local amenities, schools, transport links, Newcastle town centre, the A500 and M6.

**Average rent: £1,053/mo (42 listings)**

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.63% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £150,000
- **Target investor price (1%):** £120,000

*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.*

## Rent-driven metrics

*Based on OpenRent comparables (median £1,200/mo).*

- **Gross yield:** 7.6%
- **Cost-to-rent:** 13.2×
- **Monthly cashflow:** £307/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** 6.7%

*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).*
