Description
If your search for a first home has left you wondering whether you can really have three bedrooms, two reception spaces and parking without breaking the bank, we might just have the answer.
This three-bedroom mid-terraced property offers a surprisingly generous amount of space, making it an excellent choice for a first-time buyer looking for somewhere they can settle into and make their own.
The accommodation begins with an entrance hallway, with stairs rising to the first-floor landing and doors leading off to both the living room and kitchen.
The living room is a large and bright reception room, featuring a fireplace, window to the front elevation and internal double-opening doors leading through to the conservatory. The conservatory provides another excellent-sized reception space, with direct access via an external door to the rear garden.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of matching units, work surfaces and integrated appliances, including an oven, microwave, hob with hood and washing machine. There is also a door leading into the conservatory, while an opening provides access to a useful store room. The store room features fitted units and a small work surface, making it a particularly handy addition to the property.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, two of which are generous double bedrooms, together with the family bathroom. The bathroom is fitted with a suite comprising WC, wash hand basin, shower cubicle and a freestanding roll-top bath.
Outside, the property is approached via a driveway providing off-road parking, which leads to the main entrance door. To the rear is an enclosed garden, with paved areas providing a low-maintenance outdoor space and direct access back into the conservatory.
The property is situated within a popular area of Stafford, with local amenities available nearby, including shops and schools all within easy reach. The surrounding area provides a range of recreational facilities and green spaces, whilst Stafford town centre is readily accessible for a wider selection of shops, restaurants, cafes and leisure facilities.

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).
