Stoke Nub News has named a three-bedroom mid-terrace property in Newcastle-under-Lyme as its 'property of the week', highlighting a home marketed for its flexible living space. On the surface, this is a modest piece of local property journalism — a single listing in a Staffordshire market town. But the choice of property, and the language used to promote it, tells a wider story about what is happening in Britain's secondary housing markets, particularly in the Midlands and North, where terraced housing stock continues to offer a compelling proposition for a broad range of buyers.
