Summary - Shelton New Road, Basford (S-O-T), Stoke-On-Trent ST4 7BZ
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Compact, affordable home near Royal Stoke Hospital and workplaces, ideal for first-time buyers..
Chain free freehold — straightforward purchase
A chain-free, three-bedroom semi-detached home on Shelton New Road offering straightforward entry to homeownership or a buy-to-let opportunity. The property is freehold, reasonably compact at about 637 sq ft and priced at £150,000 — a clear draw for first-time buyers or budget-conscious investors. Key practical features include off-street parking, an enclosed paved rear garden, garage and full UPVC double glazing with gas central heating.
The house has an open-plan lounge/diner, modest kitchen, family bathroom and three bedrooms over two floors. The interior is well maintained but dated in places; updating the décor and kitchen would improve living comfort and rental appetite. The small plot and single bathroom mean space is limited compared with larger family homes.
Location is a major selling point: within easy reach of the Royal Stoke University Hospital, bet365 workplaces and local shops. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, which is useful for home-working or commuters. Nearby primary schools have good Ofsted ratings.
Be honest about local context: the area scores high for deprivation and recorded crime is above average. This affects long-term resale and rental perceptions and should be balanced against the low asking price, cheap council tax (Band B) and the property’s no-chain convenience. A straightforward cosmetic refresh would make this a comfortable starter home or a rentable asset in a strong local rental market.
