Victorian mid-terrace with high ceilings and bay window
This mid-terrace Victorian home on Wolverhampton Road offers generous living space (approximately 1,284 sq ft) and classic period features throughout. High ceilings, a bay-windowed living room with a log burner, original Minton tiles and a rustic kitchen give the house immediate character and comfortable everyday living. A loft room and cellar add flexibility for storage or hobby space.
Externally there is a private rear garden and a garage — useful for secure parking, storage or a workshop. The location is a major convenience: an easy walk to Stafford town centre, shops, and the mainline station, ideal for commuters or buyers who want town-on-foot living.
There are practical issues to note: the property is solid-brick Victorian with no built-in cavity insulation and has an EPC rating of D, so energy-efficiency improvements would reduce bills. The loft is accessed by a ladder (limited head height and not a full staircase) and there is one main shower room plus a separate WC. The plot is small and the surrounding area scores high for crime and relative deprivation, which may affect resale or renting potential.
For a first-time buyer this house presents a move-in-ready period home with scope to improve energy performance and layout over time. Its town-centre position, sizeable rooms and outbuildings make it an appealing choice for those prioritising character and convenience over a large garden or fully modern finishes.
