Description

Located in the favoured area of Edgcumbe Park and occupying a sizeable plot of just over ¼ acre, a spacious and extended family home offering versatile accommodation and offering scope for further improvement and possible extension (STPP). The current accommodation comprises an entrance hallway which leads to the extended modern kitchen/breakfast room with separate utility and the dining room. Where the original kitchen used to sit in this design of home is now a study. There is a spacious 23 living room, an inner hallway, a guest bedroom and a shower room. Upstairs you will find three bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The property sits back from the road and is approached by a spacious driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles and leading to the double garage with light and power. The remainder of the frontage is mainly laid to lawn with a double gate providing side access leading to the secluded and sizeable south facing rear garden which offers a wealth of mature foliage comprising shrubs and trees.

Linkway is one of most desirable roads on the development. Edgcumbe Park is a popular award winning development of apartments, bungalows, chalets and houses constructed by Renway homes in the late 1950's and 60's. The estate is equidistant to Crowthorne village and the railway station and abuts East Berkshire golf course to the north west. If you are looking for a property which you can improve and make your own, we highly recommend booking a viewing

  • 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.
