Description
Situated on the popular Mosswood and within comfortable walking distance of Cannock Town Centre, this well-presented semi-detached family home offers generous accommodation alongside a rare and highly versatile addition in the form of a annex. Properties offering this level of flexibility, particularly with independent rear access, are exceptionally scarce and represent a unique opportunity for a wide range of buyers. The property is further enhanced by being offered for sale with no upward chain.
The main residence is entered via an entrance porch which leads into a welcoming hallway, providing access to the principal ground floor accommodation and the staircase to the first floor. The heart of the home is the spacious through lounge and dining room, a bright and adaptable living space ideal for both family life and entertaining. From here, double doors open into the conservatory, which enjoys underfloor heating and provides a pleasant outlook over the rear garden, making it a usable space throughout the year. The fitted kitchen offers a range of wall, base and drawer units with ample work surface space, plumbing for utility appliances and dual aspect windows, along with direct access into the side passage. The side passage is a particularly practical feature, linking the front and rear of the property and providing access to useful storage as well as an additional ground floor shower room, which adds further convenience for modern living.
To the first floor, the landing gives access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The bedrooms are all well proportioned and benefit from good natural light, making them suitable for a variety of uses including family bedrooms or home working space. The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC.
Externally, the property continues to impress. The enclosed rear garden offers a combination of paved patio areas and lawn, bordered by mature trees and shrubs that provide a good degree of privacy. Located to the rear of the garden is the newly constructed annex, which has been thoughtfully designed to create self-contained accommodation. The annex comprises a generous bedroom, a modern shower room and a separate office space, making it ideal for multi-generational living, home working, guest accommodation or dependent relatives. The annex benefits from its own access, allowing it to function independently from the main house if required.
To the front of the property there is a driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles, along with access to the main entrance and the side passage leading through to the rear garden and annex.
Overall, this is a highly versatile family home in a convenient and well-connected location, offering a combination of space, flexibility and potential that is rarely available. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate everything this property has to offer.

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).
