LOCATION This property is set in a lovely residential area with a pleasant outlook to the front along Carlton Avenue, with an equally nice view to the rear over neighbouring gardens. The property is only a couple of minutes away from the town's park and also to nearby schools and bus services which may appeal to family purchasers in particular. There is also an Aldi supermarket close by, Life Leisure Centre plus Kwik-Fit. 

DESCRIPTION This family home sits in a level plot, with gated access from the road onto a private drive which has been finished with a decorative imprinted concrete. There is ample parking for two vehicles along with access into the attached garage, and a footpath that runs alongside the garage leading towards the rear garden.

The property is accessed via a generous sized hallway where there is a staircase immediately ahead of you as you enter the property, with a storage cupboard beneath and also a two-piece WC/cloakroom which has an extractor fan system and also an integrated overhead light.

The living accommodation is split between two reception rooms that includes a bay windowed lounge that offers a lovely view along Carlton Avenue and secondly, the dining room which has a glazed door and windows overlooking the garden. Central to both of the rooms are the fireplaces, with the lounge having an electric fire installed and the dining room having a tiled fireplace with an open grate.

The kitchen provides fitted wall and base cabinets, with the work surface above incorporating a single drainer sink where there is a window behind offering a lovely view of the garden. There is an electric point for a freestanding cooker, plumbing for a washing machine and space for a fridge/freezer within the alcove.

There is an external door which leads you into a covered area of the garden, where there is a door leading into the garage and a second door accessing the path that leads to the front of the house. The garden (which is terraced over two levels) provides a large area of hardstanding that would be ideal for patio furniture and outdoor dining. There is also a short run of steps that lead up to a path where there is a lawn, borders and a timber framed glasshouse.

The first floor landing in the property has a window plus access to all of the remaining accommodation, which includes two double bedrooms. Both of these double rooms have fitted wardrobe furniture and lovely views, with the bedroom at the rear overlooking neighbouring gardens, and the bay windowed room to the front looking along Carlton Avenue.

The third bedroom is much larger than a typical single room, offering space for a double bed along the side wall. There is a fitted cupboard alongside the window and a large loft access panel.

The WC is accessed separately from the landing, with the bathroom to the rear of the property completing the accommodation. The bathroom has a low level bath with an electric shower fitted over. There is also a pedestal wash hand basin and a quadrant-shaped shower enclosure with a mixer shower fitted within.

Rent ratio 0.41%
Max investor price (0.8%) £118,875
Target investor price (1%) £95,100
  • Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
  • 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).
