Summary - 11 Summerfield Place, Wenlock Road, SHREWSBURY SY2 6JX
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Low-maintenance living with communal gardens and onsite support.
Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment with private access
A neatly presented one-bedroom ground-floor apartment within a purpose-built McCarthy & Stone retirement development, ideal for a single occupant or couple seeking low-maintenance living close to Shrewsbury town centre. The apartment has a practical layout with an open-plan living/dining room, a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and a generous double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe. Communal facilities include landscaped gardens, a residents’ lounge, guest suite and a house manager, plus a 24-hour alarm call system for peace of mind.
The property is offered chain free on a long lease (992 years remaining) and includes allocated parking with a garage and driveway. Double glazing and electric room heating keep the interior comfortable; mains services are connected and there is no local flood risk. Council tax and overall running are described as affordable for the area.
Important practical points: the apartment is leasehold with an average ground rent of £425 and uses electric heating (unspecified tariff), which can affect running costs compared with gas. Private outdoor space is minimal — the attractive grounds are communal — and the accommodation is compact, reflecting typical retirement living rather than a larger family home.
This home will suit downsizers or retirees prioritising convenience, onsite support and easy upkeep. It offers immediate move-in readiness and sensible communal amenities, with potential for buyers who want a straightforward, secure base near Shrewsbury’s amenities.
