Outside -

To the front the property enjoys a gravelled area which the current owner uses as off road parking. Steps then lead up to provide access to a hardstanding walkway providing access to the front door with a manageable area of lawn to the right and left hand side.

The front garden is well stocked with an array of evergreen shrubbery. In front of the main entrance door is an open covered porch offering shielding from the elements.

Either accessed off the patio doors from the dining room or via the walkway to the left hand side of the property is the spacious rear garden with hardstanding area directly off of the rear of the property complete with external tap and external power point. Agents Note: The current vendors thought of the idea of extending off the dining room to create a more spacious kitchen with the current kitchen being used as a downstairs WC and utility room.

At the end of the hardstanding area a wooden fence with gate opens to provide access to a further expanse of lawn with hardstanding walkway flowing up the left hand side. Boundaries are clearly defined with low level block wall to the right and left elevations topped with wood fencing.

The upper section of the rear garden is an elevated decked area with elevated planting bed to the right hand side, this area opens up to gravel chippings with large wooden storage shed located in the rear corner. We understand that this property enjoys pedestrian and vehicular right of access over the access lane located to the left hand side of the property. A single wooden gate currently provides access, this could be opened up to provide more parking should the next owner so desire. There is also ample space to create a garage pending the relevant permissions.

  • 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).
