Set in the heart of historic Ludlow, this Grade II listed three-bedroom townhouse offers an appealing town-centre lifestyle with off-street parking and a first-floor balcony. The property is arranged upside-down with living and dining upstairs to maximise daylight and views, and three bedrooms on the ground floor. Its traditional brick façade and period character make it a distinctive option for someone seeking a compact, central home.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating (boiler and radiators), a useful car port for one vehicle, and a small courtyard garden accessed from the terrace. The house has been a successful rental and suits buyers wanting a holiday base, a downsizing move, or an investment with short-term let potential.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance; cavity walls are assumed uninsulated; there are reports of potential damp in outdoor-adjacent areas and the garage/terrace. The area records higher crime levels and the plot is small, so outdoor space is limited. Energy rating is D.
Overall, this property is for someone who values central convenience, character and walkable town amenities over a large garden or unrestricted renovation freedom. Viewing will show how the layout and balcony suit everyday living in Ludlow’s historic centre.
