About this property

Humphrey Court

Humphrey Court is located in the heart of Stafford. Founded during the Anglo Saxon period, Stafford now offers a modern range of shops and services nestled among the Elizabethan buildings that are so prevalent in the county town.

There is a wide range of national and independent shops on the high street, combined with the Guildhall Shopping Centre also in the town centre. These are complemented by the Indoor Market, which hosts markets four days a week and a monthly farmers market, a popular choice with those seeking local produce.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Stafford, 2026/27 bills run from £1,535 a year in band A to £4,605 in band H.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Stafford, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
