Set in the heart of historic Ludlow, this compact one-bedroom mid-terrace offers immediate central living a short walk from Castle Square and local amenities. The property retains period brick character externally and benefits from mains gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for working from home or staying connected.
Internally the house provides a sitting room, double bedroom and a bathroom with shower. The kitchen dates from the 1980s and will need updating — replacement cabinets, flooring and modern finishes will unlock clearer rental or resale potential. The house is small (approximately 388 sq ft) and best suited to a single occupant, couple or someone downsizing who values location over garden space.
Practical points are straightforward: freehold tenure, very low council tax and no flood risk. The building has solid brick walls typical of its era with no built-in insulation, so consider insulation and energy-efficiency improvements. There is no garden or garage and the plot is small, and the area records above-average crime compared with national figures — factors to weigh alongside the central location.
Offered with no upward chain, this property presents a tidy, low-maintenance city-centre base with clear scope for cosmetic modernisation. It will appeal to downsizers, investors targeting short-term lets in a tourist-friendly town, or first-time buyers comfortable with a small footprint and refurbishment work.
