SETTING THE SCENE
Set back from the road behind a low level brick wall, the property features an enclosed frontage accessed via a decorative wrought iron gate. This opens onto a flagstone pathway and patio area, beautifully bordered by a well maintained lawn and raised flower beds hosting a variety of shrubs and plantings for added privacy. The main entrance is situated at the front of the home, sheltered beneath a generous open porch.
THE GRAND TOUR
Stepping inside, the light and bright hallway provides an ideal meet and greet space, benefiting from a conveniently positioned two piece guest W.C and integrated storage tucked neatly beneath the stairs. Wood effect flooring flows from the hall and continues into the heart of the home, the 14’ sitting and dining room. Centred around a feature fireplace and illuminated by LED spotlights, this inviting space is flooded with natural light from sliding glass doors that open directly to the garden. The room’s layout offers versatility for both soft furnishings and formal dining, with chimney breast alcoves cleverly utilised for storage and a practical service hatch leading through to the kitchen. The kitchen itself features a range of wall and base units with ample worktop space for food preparation. Integrated appliances include an oven, electric hob, and extractor, with further under counter plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher, as well as generous space for an ‘American style’ fridge freezer.
Ascending to the carpeted first floor landing, you will find loft access overhead and doors leading to three generous bedrooms. Each bedroom is finished with wood effect flooring and offers ample space for furniture, with flexibility for use as a home office or study if required. These rooms are served by a three piece family bathroom, which includes a shower over the bath, a wall mounted heated towel rail, and convenient vanity storage below the sink.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- 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).
- 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).
