Compact Victorian terrace with low running costs and private garden — ideal starter home or rental.
Two bedrooms in a compact 528 sq ft Victorian mid-terrace
A compact Victorian mid-terrace in Ditherington offering straightforward, economical living for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The house delivers two bedrooms, a comfortable lounge and a fitted kitchen, plus a private, low-maintenance rear garden — a practical city-base with quick access to local schools, shops and transport links.
Recent works include a mains gas boiler (installed 31.10.24) and double glazing (install date unknown), so heating and basic insulation elements are in place. Council tax sits in a very low band and broadband is fast, helping running costs remain modest. The property has character brickwork and traditional room proportions that suit simple modernisation rather than full refurbishment.
Notable considerations: the house is small (about 528 sq ft) and was built before 1900 with solid brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation. There is a higher-than-average local crime rate, and parking is on-street only. Buyers should budget for targeted upgrading (wall insulation, possible cosmetic updates) if aiming to improve energy performance beyond the current EPC D.
Overall, this home suits someone seeking an affordable entry into Shrewsbury’s housing market or an investor looking for a low-maintenance rental in a well-connected area. The layout is straightforward and presents clear scope for value-adding improvements without major structural intervention.
