Description
Handsome elevations and striking architectural detailing immediately set the tone, with decorative brick courses and a two-storey projecting gabled bay creating excellent kerb appeal. The frontage provides a two-car driveway alongside an attractive pebbled area offering additional parking potential, while the 5m x 2.5m garage represents a valuable and versatile asset.
Lovingly improved, the home now delivers an exceptional specification perfectly suited to modern family life and entertaining. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a stylish WC and practical lobby area with deep understairs storage before opening into the standout feature of the home, a fabulous open plan living, dining and kitchen space designed entirely around lifestyle and sociable living.
Positioned to the front, the living area centres around a striking log burner adjacent to the impressive bay window, creating warm and inviting focal points. Across the rear, the stylish contemporary kitchen offers both impact and practicality, featuring sleek white gloss cabinetry, clever storage solutions and a large statement island with seating for four. A superb range of integrated NEFF appliances includes an induction island hob, double ovens incorporating a Slide & Hide bake off style oven and microwave combination, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washer — all thoughtfully integrated to provide a turnkey culinary space ready for years of enjoyment.
Adjacent, the dining area is beautifully framed by French doors opening directly onto the substantial entertaining terrace, seamlessly connecting inside and out. Together, the home and garden create the perfect hosting environment for parties, family gatherings and relaxed day-to-day living.
To the first floor, the landing incorporates a deep linen cupboard with space for a condenser dryer. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, a spacious and luxurious retreat enhanced by fitted wardrobes and bespoke cabinetry built into the feature multi-glazed bay. The room is complemented by a stylish adjoining en-suite shower room finished with elegant marble-effect tiling matching the ground floor WC and family bathroom.
Bedroom two is a comfortable double with recessed wardrobes, while bedroom three offers versatility as either a generous single bedroom or an ideal home office.
The family bathroom continues the home’s high quality presentation, featuring contemporary sanitaryware, bath with shower attachment and screen, designer lighting and stylish marble-effect finishes.
Outside, the rear garden has been designed with both families and entertaining in mind. A neat lawn, substantial entertaining terrace, attractive borders, neat fencing and mature hedging combine to create a private and enjoyable outdoor sanctuary. The fact that no homes are built directly behind further enhances the sense of privacy.
Located within a smart residential development in the popular Ettiley Heath area of Sandbach, the property benefits from a nearby village green and play park, easy access to surrounding countryside, excellent commuter links to the M6 and convenient access to Sandbach railway station. Well-regarded schools are close at hand, while Sandbach’s beautiful historic town centre is only a short drive away.
This customised turnkey home has been thoughtfully designed around the enjoyment of its occupiers, delivering exceptional specification, stylish presentation and an outstanding lifestyle opportunity, particularly for those who love to entertain. Call today to arrange your viewing.

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).
