Description
Internally, the property comprises a small entrance hall, which leads into the generous living room to the right. Enjoying a central fireplace, this room also boasts expansive windows to the front and rear allowing natural light to flood through throughout the day. Across the hall is the open plan dining kitchen with a woodburning stove and a pretty shaker style kitchen to the rear. The kitchen itself offers plenty of storage by way of multiple wall and base units and there is enough space for a variety of freestanding white goods.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms with two of the three boasting original cupboards. The internal accommodation is completed by the most generous three piece bathroom which could easily be reconfigured into a four piece with a freestanding bath.
Enjoying wonderful gardens to the front and rear, this property is enclosed with tall hedge boundaries allowing for privacy. In the rear garden, there is a pond, lawn, patio areas and two outbuildings for storage. To the front of the property is a mature and well-maintained front garden with a path leading up the side of the property. The curb has already been dropped by the current owner, so there is potential to create off street parking (subject to the relevant planning permissions brackets).
A charming farmhouse, located in the popular setting of Acomb. Offered with no onward chain. Viewing is essential.
In summary of charming farmhouse, located in the popular setting of Acomb. Offered with no onward chain, early viewing is essential.

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).
