Description
Upon entering the property through a stylish composite front door, you are greeted by an inviting entrance lobby which provides space for coats and shoes, with stairs rising to the first floor landing. A door to the left leads into a bright and comfortable lounge, beautifully presented with modern decor and a welcoming atmosphere. The lounge enjoys a front facing aspect with two windows allowing for plenty of natural light, and offers ample room for a range of furniture arrangements, making it the perfect space to relax and unwind.
From the lounge, a door opens through to the impressive kitchen/dining room, which is fitted with a contemporary range of gloss white wall and base units complemented by contrasting work surfaces and stylish tiled splashbacks. The kitchen area includes an integrated oven and hob with a stainless steel extractor hood above, space for appliances including a washing machine and fridge freezer, and a stainless steel sink positioned beneath a window overlooking the rear garden. The dining area comfortably accommodates a table and chairs, creating a sociable space ideal for family meals and entertaining guests. French doors open directly onto the rear patio, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces. A further internal door provides convenient access to the attached garage, which offers additional storage or potential for conversion (subject to planning).
To the first floor, the landing provides access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom is situated to the front of the property and benefits from built-in wardrobes providing useful storage. The second bedroom is a comfortable double room enjoying a pleasant rear aspect overlooking the garden. The third bedroom is a single room, also with a rear facing window, making it an ideal child’s room, nursery, or home office.
The family bathroom is positioned between the two larger bedrooms and is fitted with a modern white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, a low level WC, and a wash hand basin set within a vanity unit offering useful storage beneath. A frosted window to the side elevation allows for natural light and ventilation.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, there is a neatly maintained lawn and a driveway providing off road parking, leading to the single attached garage with electric roller shutter door. A side gate gives access to the rear garden, which is fully enclosed by fencing, ensuring privacy and security. The rear garden features a spacious paved patio area-perfect for outdoor dining and relaxing during the warmer months-alongside a well kept lawn and space for planting or garden furniture.
The home is ideally positioned within a sought-after residential area of Newcastle-under-Lyme, offering easy access to a wide range of local amenities including shops, schools, and leisure facilities. Excellent transport links are close by, providing convenient connections to the town centre, nearby villages, and major road networks including the A34 and M6 motorway.

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).
