Summary - 21a, Chester Street SY1 1NX
2 bed 2 bath Duplex
Modern two‑bed duplex with parking near Shrewsbury town centre.
No upward chain, available for quick purchase
No upward chain and a coveted Chester Street address make this duplex an attractive buy for first-time buyers or city-based professionals. The apartment is presented over two floors with an open-plan living area, a walnut‑finish kitchen, a double bedroom and a larger principal bedroom with an en‑suite. Allocated parking in the residents’ car park is a valuable town‑centre perk.
The layout is compact but well arranged across 639 sq ft; natural light comes from street‑facing windows and a Velux to the principal bedroom. The finish is modern throughout, with fully tiled bathrooms and fitted appliances. Practical details include double glazing, mains utilities and a long lease (960 years remaining).
Buyers should note a few material points: the property has electric heating and an EPC rating of D, there's no private garden, and the area records higher crime levels. Flood risk is classed as medium. Service charge is £720 per year (includes ground rent) and council tax band B. These factors may affect running costs and insurance.
Overall this duplex suits someone seeking low-maintenance, centrally located accommodation with immediate availability and parking. It works well as a first home or buy‑to‑let opportunity for those comfortable with town‑centre living and the noted running costs.
