Description
Occupying a highly convenient position just moments from Sandbach Railway Station and the beautiful Elworth Park, this outstanding period home has been transformed by its current owners into a truly stylish and luxurious residence. Combining character, contemporary design and exceptional presentation throughout, this is a property that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Set behind an attractive low-maintenance frontage with mature planting, feature stonework and beautiful period architecture, the home immediately impresses with its striking kerb appeal. Stepping through the quality front entrance door, you are welcomed into a sumptuous lounge featuring herringbone-style flooring, tasteful décor and a warm, inviting atmosphere.
Beyond the characterful inner hallway, complete with period-style latch doors and an elegant staircase, lies the true heart of the home – an incredible open-plan living dining kitchen. This beautifully designed space has been created with entertaining in mind, boasting contemporary panelled feature walls, polished porcelain tiled flooring, a stylish breakfast island and generous dining and seating areas.
The luxury kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of modern units complemented by quartz-effect work surfaces and matching splashbacks. Integrated appliances include a fridge, freezer, dishwasher and oven, whilst a quality Miele washing machine is also included. A translucent roof panel floods the room with natural light, enhancing the connection between the interior and the outdoors.
Outside, the private rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for relaxation and entertaining. Indian stone and wood deck terraces provide multiple seating and dining areas, whilst the generous proportions offer excellent versatility and potential for further development, subject to the necessary consents.
A particularly valuable addition is the fully tanked (waterproofed) decorated cellar, providing excellent storage space and potential for a variety of uses, including a media room, home office or hobby space.
To the first floor, the exceptional standard of presentation continues. The spacious principal bedroom offers a luxurious retreat with attractive views over the rear garden and surrounding area. A beautifully appointed family bathroom features contemporary stone-effect tiling, a stylish vanity basin, deep panelled bath and a rainfall shower. A second generously proportioned double bedroom is equally impressive, enhanced by a striking exposed brick chimney breast and feature period-style fireplace.
The location is equally appealing, with Elworth Park, Sandbach Railway Station, local shops, cafés, pharmacy and bus services all within easy walking distance, while the picturesque Cheshire countryside is just moments away.
A truly deceptive and beautifully presented home offering character, style and modern luxury in equal measure. Early viewing is highly recommended

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).
