Description

A Charming 1950's Home with Endless Potential – The Perfect Family Haven 
PLEASE SEE BOTTOM OF TEXT FOR DETAILS ON HOW TO BOOK YOUR VIEWING
Nestled at the end of a peaceful and little-known cul-de-sac, this delightful 1950s property presents a unique opportunity for a young family looking to create a cherished forever home. Surrounded by attractive riverside parks, the location is a dream for nature lovers, families, and pet owners alike, offering an idyllic setting to enjoy the outdoors just steps from your doorstep.
This three-bedroom home is available chain-free, following the recent grant of probate, making it an exciting renovation project for those eager to put their personal stamp on a property. For those able to complete the purchase before April 2025, there's the added bonus of potential Stamp Duty savings.
The heart of the home is the spacious open-plan lounge diner, a versatile area perfect for family gatherings or entertaining. With the potential to incorporate the adjoining kitchen, this space could be transformed into a stunning family hub. For those with an eye on modern living, there's also scope to extend and reimagine the layout entirely.
Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized double bedrooms and a third single bedroom, which could serve as a nursery, home office, or creative space. The property's position at the end of the cul-de-sac offers not only privacy but also ample room to the side and rear for large-scale extensions, subject to local planning permissions. Encouragingly, consents in the area have already been granted for similar projects, providing inspiration for what might be possible.
The neighbourhood is renowned for its warm and friendly community atmosphere, making it a popular choice for families. Whether it's the lure of the local parks, the quiet cul-de-sac setting, or the chance to design your dream home, this property truly offers a wonderful lifestyle opportunity.

HOME LAUNCH - SUNDAY 12TH JANUARY
(A note from Branch Owner, Ben Brind)
In 2016, I set out to create a more transparent and efficient experience for both buyers and sellers. To my surprise, it was easier than expected to implement a process that truly benefits everyone involved. Our EweMove Home Launches offer a fresh, straightforward approach to buying your new home.
We extend the marketing period just a little longer, with viewings held on weekends (typically Sundays, when most agents are closed), giving you more flexibility and ensuring you have ample opportunity to view the property. Feel free to arrive early or stay late, and observe other potential buyers as they come and go. We also offer guidance ahead of time, so you can feel confident throughout the process—after all, you are our future customers.
In today's competitive market, being legally prepared is essential. Our extended marketing period allows you time to get ready, and we have mortgage and legal experts on hand to assist you at any step. Simply let us know how we can support you when you enquire.
To book a viewing, visit our website or give our award-winning team a call — we're available 24 hours a day.
We look forward to helping you find your new home!

  • 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).
