Set within an imposing converted Victorian Gothic building, this neat ground-floor apartment offers characterful living with practical convenience. The open-plan living/dining area and large feature windows bring plenty of light to the compact 461 sq ft layout, while a generous double bedroom has built-in wardrobes and an adjacent shower room. The property benefits from a private allocated parking space directly in front, visitor spaces, and beautifully landscaped communal grounds that adjoin a cricket pitch and bowling green.
Practical points suit a downsizer or couple: the property is single-level, close to Bicton Heath amenities, the bypass, Royal Shrewsbury Hospital, and less than two miles from the town centre. The long lease (208 years remaining) and affordable council tax are positive ownership features. There is no flood risk and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong.
Buyers should note running-cost and comfort considerations: heating is purely electric via room heaters, and the main fuel is electricity on an unspecified tariff, which can be more expensive than mains gas. The apartment is leasehold and located within a communal conversion shared at ground-floor level with one other property. Overall this is a characterful, low-footprint home with convenient parking and attractive grounds, well suited to someone seeking a manageable, comfortable residence rather than a large family house.
