Description
The property is approached via a neatly maintained front garden with a driveway running down the side of the house, providing convenient off road parking and access to the rear. Upon entering the property you are welcomed into a small entrance lobby, which benefits from a useful storage cupboard, with doors leading through to both the lounge and the kitchen.
The kitchen is positioned to the front of the property and enjoys a pleasant outlook. It is fitted with a range of wall and base units, an inset sink and drainer and offers space for freestanding appliances, creating a practical and functional workspace that is well suited to everyday living.
To the rear of the property is the lounge diner, a bright and inviting space that has been extended to create a dedicated dining area. The lounge features a focal fireplace and stairs rising to the first floor, providing a comfortable living space. The dining area benefits from sliding patio doors, allowing natural light to flood the room and providing direct access onto the rear garden, making it an ideal space for both entertaining and family life.
To the first floor there are two generously sized double bedrooms, with one enjoying a front aspect and the other overlooking the rear garden. The bathroom is centrally located between the bedrooms and is fitted with a white suite, with the added benefit of a side aspect window providing natural light and ventilation.
Externally, the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a paved patio area, offering an excellent outdoor space for relaxing, entertaining or enjoying the warmer months. The garden provides a good degree of privacy and is well proportioned for a property of this type.
This home is ideally located for access to local amenities, schools and transport links, while also being tucked away in a peaceful residential setting. An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the property and its location.

- 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).
