Description
Whitegates Crewe are delighted to present this impressive three bedroom detached family home located on Shaw Bank Place in Crewe (CW1). This beautifully presented home has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners and offers spacious accommodation throughout, including an upgraded kitchen, upgraded carpets and three genuine double bedrooms. One of the standout features of this property is the exceptional south facing rear garden which backs directly onto a nature reserve, ensuring it will not be built on and offering a wonderful sense of privacy. The garden itself was a key selling point when the current owners purchased the property and has since been landscaped to create a superb outdoor space ideal for families, entertaining and pets. Externally the home also benefits from driveway parking and an integral garage.

The entrance hall provides a welcoming introduction to the home and creates a central point from which the ground floor accommodation flows. The space allows room for coats and shoes and provides access to the main living areas as well as the staircase leading to the first floor. The layout of the hallway makes the property feel immediately practical for family living with all rooms conveniently positioned.
The living room is a bright and comfortable space positioned towards the rear of the property, enjoying views out towards the garden. The room offers excellent proportions allowing for a full range of lounge furniture including sofas, coffee tables and media units. The rear aspect allows natural light to fill the room creating a warm and inviting environment ideal for relaxing with family or hosting guests.
The kitchen has been upgraded by the current owners and provides a modern and practical cooking space. It features a well planned layout with ample worktop preparation space and a range of fitted units for storage. The room comfortably accommodates everyday cooking while also being suitable for family use. Its positioning within the property allows easy access from the hallway and convenient connection to the other living areas, making it both functional and sociable.
The dining room provides a dedicated space for family meals and entertaining. The room offers ample space for a large dining table and chairs while still allowing additional furniture such as sideboards or display units. With a pleasant outlook and good natural light, the dining room works equally well for everyday family dining or hosting friends and relatives for special occasions.
A useful ground floor WC is located off the hallway which adds to the convenience of the layout, particularly when entertaining guests or for day to day family use.
The integral garage provides excellent additional storage and practical utility space. It can comfortably house tools, bikes or household items and also offers potential for future conversion if desired, subject to the relevant permissions. The driveway to the front provides off road parking which further enhances the practicality of the home.
The first floor landing provides access to all three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The layout is well arranged, creating a natural separation between rooms while maintaining a spacious feel throughout the upper floor.
The principal bedroom is positioned at the front of the property and provides a generous double bedroom with plenty of space for a large bed, wardrobes and additional bedroom furniture. The room feels bright and comfortable, making it an ideal main bedroom for the home. It also benefits from the added luxury of its own private en-suite shower room which provides both convenience and privacy.
The en-suite offers a well appointed space with a shower enclosure, wash basin and WC, making it a practical addition for busy mornings and everyday use.
The second bedroom is another well proportioned double room positioned to the rear of the property, enjoying a pleasant outlook towards the garden and the nature reserve beyond. The room provides ample space for a double bed and furniture and would make an excellent guest room or bedroom for family members.
The third bedroom is also a genuine double bedroom, something not always found in homes of this type. It offers great flexibility and could be used as a further bedroom, guest room, nursery or home office while still comfortably accommodating a double bed and furniture.
The family bathroom is well positioned to serve the remaining bedrooms and includes a bath, wash basin and WC. The room provides a practical family bathing space and complements the en-suite in the principal bedroom.
The rear garden is truly one of the highlights of this home and was a major reason the current owners chose the property. The garden is a fantastic size and has been landscaped to create an attractive and usable outdoor space. Being south facing it enjoys sunlight throughout the day, making it perfect for relaxing outdoors, entertaining guests or allowing children and pets to play. The garden also backs directly onto a nature reserve which ensures that the outlook will remain private and green without future development behind the property. This unique feature provides a peaceful setting and gives the garden a wonderfully open feel rarely found in modern developments.
The property is well positioned for local amenities in Crewe including nearby shops, supermarkets and everyday conveniences. Well regarded schools in the area include Springfield School Crewe and Ruskin Community High School, making the location attractive for families. The home also benefits from excellent transport links with easy access to Crewe Railway Station providing major rail connections and convenient road links for commuting across the region.
Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, upgrades and exceptional garden this fantastic detached family home has to offer.

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).
