Description
An imposing Edwardian, 3-storey detached house built from brick walls, with part rendered elevations, under a Rosemary clay tiled roof. This property is very well proportioned and the rooms at ground and first floor level have a light and airy atmosphere, with good views from the bedrooms. Sherwood has been tastefully modernised to retain much of its original character, yet is extremely comfortable and beautifully appointed. The mains gas central heating system was upgraded in 2018, the house is in excellent decorative order and it provides the following comfortable accommodation: -
Sherwood is set in a commanding position on the brow of a small hill at the junction of Grosvenor Road and Western Promenade (a quiet unclassified road that runs along the Western side of the beautiful Lakeside Park and parallel to the main A483. The house has a delightful South-easterly aspect, complete privacy and there are pleasant views on three sides. It is only 100 yards from a bus stop and there is Nisa Supermarket at the Petrol Station (200 yards) and within about a ½-mile of town centre amenities to include the Railway Station (Shrewsbury to Swansea line). Llandrindod Wells is the County Town of and administrative centre of Powys and has a range of shopping and business facilities, Tesco Superstore, Aldi Supermarket, successful schools, Cottage Hospital and Railway Station . The Rightmove survey of 2015 declared LD1 (Llandrindod Wells postal area) to be “the friendliest place to move to in the UK” and their surveys of 2017 and 2019 declared Llandrindod Wells to be “Happiest Town in Wales” (fifth overall for UK this year). Leisure facilities within a 11 mile radius include a Theatre, Cinema, Library, active U3A, three Sports Centres, indoor and outdoor bowls (International quality), two 18-hole Golf Courses, Game and Coarse fishing. The market towns of Builth Wells, Rhayader, Knighton, Brecon and Newtown are 7, 11, 19, 24 and 27 miles distant. The City of Hereford, Abergavenny and coastal resort of Aberystwyth all about an hour’s drive, with Cardiff, Swansea, Worcester and the Severn Bridge are all just over a 1½-hour drive (Note - dependent on traffic conditions).

- 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).
