Description

** ** This stunning home in built in 2023 has the remaining NHBC warranty together with a very impressive upgraded interior that really does make this house feel like a home with stylish and lavish finishes throughout. Upgrades include a top of the range kitchen with quartz worktops, splashbacks, island, quartz upstand and hot water tap, quality flooring installed, built in wardrobes in every bedroom and Nest zoned heating. Excluding the bathroom and en suite windows, there are fitted Hilary's venetian blinds to all windows. The garden has also been beautifully landscaped featuring porcelain tiles and artificial turf for easy maintenance.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a spacious hallway which allows access to all of the ground floor living accommodation. The dual aspect lounge is a generous size that is flooded with natural light with patio doors leading to the rear garden. The home also enjoys a separate reception room, currently used as a home office/study but alternatively could be used as a snug, playroom etc. Adjacent to this is a downstairs WC.

The heart of the home is the spacious open plan dining kitchen equipped with a stylish range of units complemented by quartz worktops above, an eye level electric oven and grill, gas hob with cooker hood above, integrated fridge freezer and integrated dishwasher. Patio doors lead to the rear garden and an internal door leads to the utility room having wall and base units, quartz worktop, sink and drainer, door leading to rear garden and plumbing for a washing machine.

Upstairs, the property boasts four well-proportioned bedrooms, all of which could fit a double bed and ample bedroom furniture. All bedrooms come with built in wardrobes. The pick of the four rooms is the master bedroom having double built in wardrobes and access to its own modern fitted en suite with contemporary tiling and a suite comprising a walk-in shower enclosure, low level flush WC and wash hand basin. The other three bedrooms then share a contemporary family bathroom fitted with a bath, walk in shower enclosure, wash hand basin and low-level flush WC plus stylish tiled walls.

To the front is a charming garden and a pathway that leads to the front door. To the side is a generous sized driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles and access to the detached garage that has power and lighting.

Rent ratio 0.26%
Max investor price (0.8%) £113,875
Target investor price (1%) £91,100
  • 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).
