Set on Broad Street in the heart of Ludlow, this Grade II listed three-storey townhouse offers compact, characterful living across 924 sq ft. The house won a Ludlow Heritage award during its 1998 renovation and retains period features throughout: exposed beams, sash windows, flagstone and heavy floorboards, and original fireplaces. Its location is a stone’s throw from the town centre and local amenities.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors with two double bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room, dining room and kitchen. Electric night storage heating is installed and broadband connectivity is strong. A very small walled courtyard and a rear storage cupboard with plumbing add practical outdoor and utility space. The property is offered freehold and chain free.
Important practical points: the Grade II listing and a small flying freehold adjacent to the chimney will affect future alterations and may complicate mortgage or insurance processes. The house has a single bathroom and compact external space, so it better suits a couple, first-time buyers, or those prioritising central historic living over extensive gardens. EPC is exempt due to listed status.
This home’s strengths are its central location, period character and clear potential for sympathetic updating. Buyers should be prepared for listed-building considerations, limited outdoor space, and the electric heating system when budgeting for ongoing running costs or improvements.
