Description
The accommodation briefly comprises a cosy front lounge featuring a focal log-burning stove, and a modern kitchen/diner to the rear with stairs rising to the first floor, useful under-stairs storage, and ample space for a table and chairs. A small utility area provides direct access and leads through to a stylish ground floor bathroom fitted with a shower over the bath.
To the first floor are two generous double bedrooms, both retaining original character fireplaces, with the front bedroom further benefiting from built-in storage.
The property enjoys a generous, long rear garden featuring a paved patio area ideal for outdoor seating, leading to an extended lawn with established planting and garden areas beyond. The garden offers plenty of space for family use, gardening, or entertaining and backs onto green belt land, providing a pleasant open outlook and a good degree of privacy.
Agent Note: A right of access exists across the rear garden for a neighbouring property for bin access only. We understand this is not routinely used, as neighbouring properties take bins via an alternative route. This property, in turn, benefits from a right of way across the garden of the end-terrace property to the left.

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).
