Description
Step through the front door and you’ll instantly feel the sense of space. High ceilings, generous rooms, and original character details give this home a timeless feel, while the open-plan layout brings it right up to date.
The hallway with its original tiled floor leads through to a bright, inviting living and dining space, perfect for movie nights, dinner parties, or lazy Sundays. The adjoining kitchen is built for sociable cooking, with integrated appliances, a central island, and a handy utility room to keep life organised. Beyond that, the conservatory adds a flexible extra space, home office, playroom, or morning coffee spot, and there’s a downstairs WC too.
Outside, the large garden is a rare find. Ideal for BBQs, pets, or simply soaking up the sun after work.
Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms make space for guests or a growing family, and the stylish bathroom, with roll-top bath and separate shower, adds a touch of boutique-hotel comfort.
With off-road parking, a garage, and plenty of room to grow, this home offers the perfect step up for anyone ready for their next chapter.

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).
