Description
A great opportunity to purchase a character semi detached home on an established road in Cradley Heath. With much more to it than meets the eye, this deceptively spacious property would perfectly suit a professional couple, first time buyer, or family. The current owner has made a number of improvements including opening the conservatory, kitchen and dining room to create a really great family space, a downstairs shower room, and a converted loft with a fixed staircase. The property is also in excellent condition throughout with modern fixtures and fittings, tasteful decor, and plenty of natural light. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the size and condition.
The location has lots of amenities on offer including plenty of nearby schools, shops, restaurants, and takeaways. Halesowen, Stourbridge, Merry Hill, Dudley, and Birmingham City Centre are all easily accessible with major road links and ample public transport on hand. Cradley Heath and Old Hill stations are both within easy reach and there are plenty of buses on hand. A perfect location for commuting.
The accommodation, which benefits double glazing and a gas fired central heating system, briefly comprises on the ground floor: porch, entrance hall with storage cupboard, lounge with bay window, dining room with log burner, conservatory, fitted kitchen, shower room.
The first floor comprises a large principle bedroom with fitted wardrobes, second bedroom, third bedroom/study with fitted wardrobes, and the house bathroom. The loft has been converted for easy use with a fixed staircase and skylight. It is currently in use as a fourth bedroom.
Externally the property benefits from a block paved driveway to the front. To the rear is a generous garden mainly laid to lawn with garden shed and raised patio area.

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).
