Description
Uncover the enchantment of this property. Behind a classic terraced frontage with original Minton tiled hallway setting the tone, this three bedroom home pairs period charm with generous proportions and a layout that keeps on giving. With three genuine double bedrooms, two reception rooms, a further rear reception overlooking the garden, and gated parking tucked away to the rear, this is the kind of terrace that offers far more than first impressions might suggest.
Located on Corporation Street, the property enjoys a convenient position within Stafford, well placed for access to the town centre, local shops and everyday amenities. Stafford railway station is also within easy reach, offering direct services to Birmingham, Manchester and London, making the area appealing for both commuters and those wanting everything the town has to offer close at hand.
The property is approached via a traditional terraced frontage with low boundary wall, leading to the entrance door. Step inside and the hallway immediately delivers character with original Minton tiled flooring underfoot, while stairs rise to the first floor and a useful under stairs storage cupboard adds everyday practicality.
Positioned to the front of the property is a bright reception room, enhanced by a bay window which allows plenty of natural light to pour in. Further along the hallway sits the dining room, another well proportioned space with double French doors opening directly onto the garden, creating a lovely connection between indoors and out.
To the rear of the hallway, the kitchen offers space for a fridge freezer and under counter space for a washing machine, alongside a large oven with five burner hob. Beyond this sits a further reception room overlooking the garden, also benefitting from double French doors, making it a versatile space that could work equally well as a snug, family room or additional entertaining area.
The rear garden begins with a paved seating area before opening out to an artificial lawn for ease of maintenance. To the rear, a walled section with gated access leads through to the parking area, providing the valuable addition of off road parking tucked away behind the property.
Upstairs, the first floor offers three genuinely good sized double bedrooms, with the front bedroom being especially generous. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom fitted with a shower cubicle and separate bath.
Packed with character, generous in size and offering the rare bonus of rear gated parking, this is a terrace with plenty more to offer than the average.

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).
