Description

This detached home sits on a lovely corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac in Somersham, and it's one of those properties that just works brilliantly for so many different lifestyles. 
Step into the entrance hall and the layout flows really well from here. To your left, the sitting room is a great size and perfect for relaxing. Straight ahead, you've got a study or family room — it's flexible space that could work as a home office, a playroom, or even a fourth bedroom if you need it. The dining room sits alongside, making it easy to host family meals or entertain friends. The kitchen is modern and sits at the back of the house, with a bright conservatory attached that brings loads of natural light in. 
A ground floor shower room and utility area rounds off the downstairs — really handy for busy mornings or when you've got guests.
Head upstairs and you've got three well-proportioned bedrooms, with bedrooms one and two benefiting from air conditioning to keep things comfortable year-round. The family bathroom is a four-piece suite with both a bath and a separate shower, so everyone's routine is covered. 
Outside, the rear garden is a great size with plenty of room for the kids to play, for gardening, or just for enjoying when the sun's out. The corner plot gives you that extra bit of openness and privacy you don't always get. At the front, there's a generous driveway leading to a tandem-length double garage — brilliant if you've got multiple cars, need workshop space, or just want loads of storage.
A real bonus with this property is the solar panels, which are owned outright. 
Somersham is a brilliant village to live in. You've got a close-knit community, local amenities, and some lovely walks on your doorstep, but you're still within easy reach of main roads for commuting. It's the best of both worlds really.

  • 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).
