Description

** Sitting/dining room, kitchen and downstairs bathroom. First floor bedroom. Pretty south facing garden. On road parking in the vicinity. 

Location 3 The Haven is situated the pretty village of Alderton, within walking distance of the village shop/post office, doctor's surgery and the sea. Within 3 miles of the property to the West is the popular and unique Ramsholt Arms public house, from where there is sailing on the River Deben. To the south is Bawdsey Quay with sailing centre, café, sandy beach and foot ferry to Felixstowe. Access to shingle beaches at East Lane and Shingle Street (SSSI) are also nearby.

The progressive Bawdsey Primary School is in close proximity. The town of Woodbridge is about 20 minutes by car. This popular town also offers excellent schooling in both the state and private sector as well as pubs, restaurants, shops and businesses. From Woodbridge there are trains to Ipswich connecting with Inter City rail services to London's Liverpool Street station, taking just over the hour. 

Description 3 The Haven forms part of a terrace of cottages dating from 1908. They are of brick construction under a tiled roof. Whilst the cottage has UPVC double glazed windows and night storage heaters, it does require complete renovation and modernisation internally.

Rent-driven metrics

Based on Area rent estimate.

Rent ratio 0.72%
Max investor price (0.8%) £104,000
Target investor price (1%) £83,200
  • 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).
