Description
Upon entering the property, the kitchen is positioned straight ahead, whilst to the right you will find a spacious lounge featuring a charming fireplace, creating a cosy focal point to the room. Leading through from the lounge is the family bathroom, alongside two bedrooms. The master bedroom is a generous double room with French doors opening into the conservatory, whilst the second bedroom is a well-proportioned single room, also benefitting from French doors providing direct access to the rear garden.
The conservatory offers an additional versatile reception space and enjoys French doors opening onto the rear garden. Externally, the rear garden has been designed with low maintenance in mind, featuring a paved patio area with steps leading down to an artificial lawn, complemented by well-stocked planted borders. There is also access to the substantial workshop and an additional garden shed.
Perfectly positioned just a stone’s throw from Berryhill Fields, the property is ideal for dog walkers and families alike, whilst also being conveniently close to well-regarded schools, local shops, bus routes, and excellent commuter links.
Although the property would benefit from cosmetic modernisation throughout, it presents an exciting opportunity to create a fantastic bungalow in a sought-after location.

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).
