Description
Step back in time — without sacrificing a moment of modern comfort — in this stunning late-1800s Victorian home, bursting with character, charm, and timeless elegance. Nestled along the ever-popular Wolverhampton Road, in the sought-after village of Cheslyn Hay, this beautifully restored two-bedroom residence is a dream come true for lovers of period homes and thoughtful craftsmanship.
From the moment you step through the front door, you're welcomed by an impressive entrance hall, showcasing soaring ceilings, intricate period detailing, and a warm, inviting atmosphere that only a home with real history can offer.
At the front of the property, the generously-sized family lounge exudes comfort and elegance, with a striking bay window that bathes the space in natural light. The real showstopper, however, is the open-plan kitchen diner — a charming, sociable heart of the home featuring an original fireplace that brings a sense of heritage and warmth to every mealtime or gathering.
To the rear, a light-filled conservatory offers views out to the garden — perfect for your morning coffee or evening wind-down — and leads to a convenient WC and handy storage area.
Venture upstairs to discover two large double bedrooms, both beautifully proportioned and rich in character. The spacious family bathroom is nothing short of luxurious, complete with a free-standing bath, a double shower, and elegant finishes throughout. A dressing room provides extra space and versatility — ideal as a home office, nursery, or walk-in wardrobe.
There's even a small cellar, ideal as a pantry or wine store, offering yet another nod to the home’s Victorian roots.
The property benefits from designated parking at the rear of the property.
Location-wise, it doesn't get much better. You're just a short stroll from local pubs, restaurants, and Cheslyn Hay’s well-regarded schools, including Cheslyn Hay Primary and Cheslyn Hay Academy — making this the perfect spot for first-time buyers, growing families, or working professionals seeking character without compromise.
Victorian elegance. Modern comfort. Unbeatable location. This is more than a home — it’s a piece of history ready to write its next chapter.

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).
