Description
A home that combines contemporary style with unexpected space and exciting future potential. This beautifully refurbished two-bedroom second floor apartment is designed to impress from the outset, offering far more than your typical apartment living.
Step inside and experience a sense of openness that immediately sets the tone. The expansive living area, enhanced by high ceilings and a sleek modern finish, creates a light-filled space that’s perfect for both unwinding and hosting. It’s a setting that feels effortlessly stylish while remaining warm and welcoming.
Both double bedrooms are generously proportioned, offering comfortable retreats with plenty of room to live and relax, while the contemporary bathroom adds a refined touch with its clean design and full bath with overhead shower. Every inch of the property has been thoughtfully updated, meaning you can move straight in and enjoy without lifting a finger.
Above it all lies the real hidden gem. Two impressive loft rooms provide a level of versatility rarely found, opening the door to endless possibilities. Whether you envision a home office, guest space, creative studio, or future additional bedrooms, this is a home that adapts to your lifestyle as it evolves.
With access to communal gardens and the convenience of allocated parking, the practical benefits are just as appealing as the interiors.

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).
