Description
The accommodation opens into a welcoming entrance hall, leading through to a bright and attractive lounge. The large bay window floods the room with natural light, while the feature fireplace provides an appealing focal point. Laminate flooring and tasteful décor complete this comfortable living space.
To the rear is a modern kitchen diner, fitted with a range of contemporary units, contrasting work surfaces and metro-style tiled splashbacks. A breakfast bar provides additional preparation and seating space, while there is also room for a dining table, making this an excellent sociable area for everyday family life and entertaining.
A particularly useful addition is the converted rear section of the garage, which now provides a versatile garden room/snug with French doors opening directly onto the garden. This flexible space could equally work as a home office, playroom, hobby room or additional sitting area. The front section of the garage remains available for useful storage.
To the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom benefits from fitted bedroom furniture, while the second bedroom provides another comfortable and practical space. Completing the first-floor accommodation is a modern three-piece bathroom suite with a shower over the bath and a vanity unit beneath the wash basin.
Outside, the property really comes into its own. To the front is a driveway together with access to the garage.
The rear garden is a major feature of this home. Set on an unusually generous and expansive plot, it offers a substantial lawn, paved and gravelled seating areas, established planting and tree-lined boundaries. The size of the garden creates an excellent environment for children, entertaining and outdoor living, while also presenting significant longer-term potential, subject to all relevant planning permissions, building regulations and necessary consents.
Further enhancing the outside space is an impressive detached garden room/summer house positioned within the garden. This provides yet another highly versatile area which could be used for relaxing, entertaining, hobbies or home working.
The property is conveniently positioned for the Royal Stoke University Hospital, making it particularly appealing to hospital and healthcare staff, while also offering good commuter connections and access to a range of local amenities.
With its attractive bay-fronted appearance, modern presentation, flexible additional living spaces and exceptionally generous garden plot, this is a property with a great deal to offer. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate both the accommodation and the rare outside space available at Collis Avenue.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- This street — Gross yield for this street only (Land Registry sales + rental comparables, same postcode + street).
- 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).
