Description
“A home packed with character, space and a story still waiting to be written.”
This spacious Victorian mid-terraced property offers an excellent blend of character, practicality and future potential, making it an attractive proposition for first-time buyers, investors and those seeking a home they can gradually modernise and personalise.
The accommodation begins with a bright and welcoming entrance hallway, where a traditional staircase rises to the first floor. To the front of the property is a generous reception room currently utilised as a dining room, featuring high ceilings, attractive proportions and a striking period fireplace that creates a wonderful focal point. Continuing through the hallway, there is access to a useful cellar storage area and a convenient guest WC.
To the rear of the property sits an impressive family living room, enjoying excellent natural light and centred around a character fireplace. French doors open directly onto the rear terrace, creating an ideal connection between indoor and outdoor living. Adjacent is a modern fitted kitchen incorporating a range of wall and base units, generous worktop space and integrated cooking appliances, whilst enjoying pleasant views across the rear garden.
The first floor continues to impress with two particularly spacious double bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a bath, shower, wash basin and WC. A further standout feature is the substantial boarded loft space, accessed via a loft ladder from the landing, offering excellent storage and exciting future potential subject to any necessary permissions and regulations.
Externally, the property enjoys a traditional Victorian street frontage whilst to the rear there is a surprisingly private two-tier paved garden designed for low maintenance living. The generous terrace provides ample space for outdoor dining, entertaining guests or simply relaxing, complemented by mature planting and a useful timber garden store.
Situated within easy reach of Stafford town centre, the property enjoys excellent access to shops, supermarkets, restaurants, leisure facilities and highly regarded schooling. Stafford Railway Station provides direct rail links to Birmingham, Manchester and London, whilst Junctions 13 and 14 of the M6 are readily accessible, making this an excellent location for commuters.

Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.

- 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).
