Description
This 2 bedroom mid-terrace is proof that good things really do come in small packages.
Just a stone’s throw from the town centre shops, it’s a ready-made opportunity for investors or first-time buyers who’d rather skip the stress and go straight to “settled”.
Currently let to contractors, it’s got exactly what you need for short or long-term rental success.
There’s open-plan living downstairs, a modern fitted kitchen and two bedrooms upstairs (one double, one single), plus a clean and practical bathroom with shower over the bath. A small extension has been added, allowing the bathroom to be moved upstairs—making even better use of the available space.
Compact? Yes. But it’s cleverly laid out to make the most of every square metre - and that makes it easy to manage whether you're living in it or letting it out.
It’s just a couple of streets away from the Main Street shops, takeaways and everyday essentials.
So whether you’re adding to your portfolio or looking for your first proper place to call home, this one’s well worth a closer look.
Don’t miss out—call now to arrange your viewing.

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).
