Description
From the moment the morning light pours through the bay window, there’s a brightness
that follows you through the house. It’s something the current owners noticed from the
day they moved in, and it’s still one of the things they love the most.
The living room has become the heart of everyday life. A bespoke media wall gives the
room a contemporary feel without taking away its warmth, while the large bay window
keeps it naturally bright throughout the day. It’s equally suited to a quiet evening with the
fire on as it is to friends gathering for a film or catching up over coffee.
The kitchen continues that same feeling. Modern, practical and filled with natural light,
it’s a space that’s been designed for real life rather than just looking good in
photographs. The kitchen is where mornings often begin before work, while generous
worktop space and views over the garden make cooking feel less like a chore and more
like part of the day.
Step outside and you’ll find a garden that’s designed to be enjoyed, not maintained. The
sun starts its day at the front of the property before moving round to the rear, meaning
there’s always somewhere to sit with a coFee in the morning or unwind on the patio as
the evening draws in. New fencing and a recently fitted gate have created a lovely sense
of privacy, making it feel like your own little retreat.
Upstairs, the bedrooms continue the calm feel found throughout the house. The front
bedroom is particularly peaceful. The bathroom has also been beautifully updated with
contemporary marble-effect panelling and a modern shower over the bath, creating a
space that’s both stylish and easy to maintain.
Practicality hasn’t been overlooked either. A combi boiler keeps running costs
aFordable, excellent broadband makes working from home easy, and the private
driveway means arriving home is always straightforward.
Location is often what makes a house become a long-term home, and this is one of
Hartshill's real strengths. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac where passing traffic is limited to
neighbours, it offers a peaceful setting while remaining incredibly well connected.
Newcastle-under-Lyme town centre is around a 16-minute walk away, Harpfield
Primary School is just six minutes on foot, St John Fisher Catholic College is within
walking distance, and the A500 provides quick access across Stoke-on-Trent and
beyond. A local park, just five minutes away, has become part of everyday life for
everything from evening walks to fresh air at the weekend.
For those thinking ahead, there's future potential too. A number of neighbouring homes
have been extended, and planning permission has previously been granted nearby,
giving future owners the opportunity to grow with the property should their needs ever
change.
Ask the current owners what they'll miss most, and it isn't a particular room or feature.
It's the feeling of living here. The friendly neighbours who have become familiar faces
over the years. The quiet street. The bright mornings. The simple routines that have
made this house feel like home.

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).
