The latest 'Property of the Week' feature from Stoke Nub News spotlights a two-bedroom bungalow in Newcastle-under-Lyme, marketed for its 'spacious single-storey living'. On the surface, this is a modest local listing. But it sits at the intersection of one of the most under-reported trends in the UK housing market: the growing premium commanded by bungalows, and the acute shortage of single-storey stock relative to demand, particularly in mid-market towns across Staffordshire and the wider West Midlands.
