Description
Take a step in the right direction on Nelson Way. Having been thoughtfully extended and enhanced by the current owners, this beautifully presented three-bedroom home offers superb living space, a stunning landscaped garden and a layout perfectly suited to modern family life.
Situated in a popular residential location, Nelson Way enjoys excellent access to local amenities, schools and commuter links, making it an ideal choice for growing families and professionals alike.
The property is approached via an extended driveway providing off-road parking for up to four vehicles, creating an impressive first impression before you even step inside.
The welcoming entrance hallway has been tastefully decorated and benefits from useful under-stairs storage, a contemporary guest WC and stairs rising to the first floor.
Positioned to the front of the property is an elegant dining room, beautifully presented and ideal for both formal entertaining and everyday family meals.
Adjacent is the spacious living room, a real highlight of the home, featuring a bespoke media wall with a sleek built-in electric fireplace, creating a stylish focal point. Double doors lead seamlessly into what was formerly the conservatory but has since been transformed into a superb garden room. Thanks to the addition of a solid insulated roof with skylights, this versatile space can now be enjoyed comfortably throughout the year and provides direct access to the rear garden.
Returning to the hallway, the kitchen sits to the rear of the property and flows effortlessly into an additional dining area, creating a sociable open-plan space. The kitchen is fitted with an integrated oven, four-ring hob and dishwasher, along with space for a freestanding fridge freezer. From the dining area, a door opens directly onto the garden, while a separate utility room offers space for two under-counter appliances, additional storage and internal access to the garage.
Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create multiple areas for relaxing, entertaining and family life. Decking wraps elegantly around a central lawn, while raised planters add colour and character throughout. A gently elevated decked walkway, bordered by a rope balustrade, leads towards the rear of the garden, where you'll find a further raised seating area, a useful shed and a purpose-built children's play area finished with soft wood chippings. Immediately outside the garden room is another inviting seating space, making this a garden designed to be enjoyed from every angle.
Upstairs, the first floor offers two generous double bedrooms, a comfortable single bedroom and a beautifully refitted family bathroom featuring both a freestanding shower cubicle and a corner bath. An air purification system installed on the first-floor landing further enhances the comfort of the home.
Over the years, the property has been significantly improved, including an extended driveway, an enlarged kitchen, the transformation of the conservatory into a year-round garden room with a solid roof, and a complete landscaping of the rear garden. The result is a stylish, move-in-ready home offering exceptional space both inside and out.

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).
