Location
Rinkfield is a sought-after residential area on the southern edge of Kendal, offering a convenient lifestyle with a range of nearby amenities. Within easy reach, you'll find a Post Office and convenience store, a fish and chip takeaway, Kendal Leisure Centre, and Kirkbie Kendal Secondary School. For those who enjoy the outdoors, picturesque riverside walks along the River Kent provide a scenic route to the town centre, Asda superstore, and Oxenholme train station, which offers excellent transport links.
Description
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a bright hallway laid with attractive herringbone-style flooring, which flows seamlessly throughout the ground floor accommodation. Stairs ahead rise to the first floor, while a door to the side opens into the main reception room.
The lounge is a well-proportioned and inviting space, bathed in natural light from a front-facing window. A multi-fuel stove, set on a stone hearth with recessed alcove cupboards and shelving, creates a cosy focal point and adds character to the room.
From the lounge, a door leads into the generous kitchen/diner, which spans the width of the property at the rear, offering both a generous dining area and ample workspace. The kitchen is fitted with a range of laminate-fronted storage units, complemented by a three-sided worktop incorporating a stainless steel sink and drainer. There is space for a freestanding cooker, under-counter dishwasher, upright fridge-freezer, and plumbing for a washing machine. The dining area also features a useful under-stairs storage cupboard and access to the rear porch, where an internal door leads to a convenient cloakroom, and an external door opens onto a decked seating area, perfect for al fresco dining and relaxation.
Upstairs, the landing provides access to three bedrooms and a family bathroom. A hatch with a drop-down ladder offers easy access to the loft, providing additional storage. The master bedroom is a spacious double overlooking the recreational ground and includes a fitted display unit and space for freestanding wardrobes. The second bedroom is also a generous double, positioned at the front of the property, and benefits from two built-in storage cupboards. The third bedroom is a single room with a pleasant rear outlook and space for freestanding furniture. The bathroom is fitted with a modern three-piece suite, including a panelled bathtub with wall-mounted electric shower, WC, and a wash basin with vanity storage beneath.
Externally, the property features a slate-chipped driveway to the front, providing off-road parking for one vehicle. To the rear, the enclosed garden includes a raised decked seating area, low-maintenance paving and artificial lawn, and space for a timber shed.

Rent-driven metrics

Based on Area rent estimate.

Rent ratio 0.42%
Max investor price (0.8%) £119,250
Target investor price (1%) £95,400
  • 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).
