## Description

We present this delightful one bedroom apartment on the second floor of Joules Court. It’s a moment’s stroll from Stone’s friendly high street, where you can relax in a variety of charming cafes, pubs and coffee shops, with the buses, the A34, and the railway station all conveniently nearby. Lift access makes getting to the second floor easy, where you’ll find this thoughtfully designed apartment, with its spacious hallway and two built-in storage cupboards. The living room features a cosy fireplace and a bright floor-to-ceiling window with a view of the garden and local life. In the kitchen, you’ll find everything you need fitted in - an oven, a hob and separate fridge and freezer. The bathroom includes a luxuriously roomy shower enclosure and the sizeable double bedroom is made even more spacious by the large fitted wardrobes. But the real appeal of Joules Court is its sense of community - it’s a place where you can meet every week in the welcoming residents’ lounge for Coffee Mornings and Knit-and-Natter and afternoons of Bingo or a Quiz - or just impromptu get-togethers where you sit and pass the time with new friends. With no chain attached, this apartment is practically begging for you to waltz right in. This is where your happily-ever-after begins!

- **Rent ratio:** 0.75% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £93,750
- **Target investor price (1%):** £75,000

*Monthly rent ÷ price. 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak. Max investor price = rent ÷ 0.8% (Stoke-style target). Target investor price = rent ÷ 1% (strong cashflow band). Based on OpenRent comparables.*
