Summary - 40 ELLESMERE ROAD SHREWSBURY SY1 2PR
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful home with modern kitchen extension and easy station access.
Four bedrooms across three storeys including converted attic
A handsome late‑Victorian semi detached home on Ellesmere Road, blending original character with a light, contemporary extension. The ground floor offers formal reception to the front and a generous extended kitchen/diner at the rear, fitted with a central lantern and bi‑fold doors that open onto a paved patio — ideal for family life and entertaining. Four bedrooms across three storeys include an ensuite to the first floor and a luxury family bathroom; the converted attic provides flexible space for guests or home working.
Practical strengths include double glazing installed post‑2002, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, off‑street block‑paved parking and a decent private rear garden with patio and lawn. The property is freehold, within 0.6 miles of Shrewsbury train station and close to good schools, shops and riverside amenities, making it well suited to commuting families and professionals.
Buyers should note this is a solid‑brick Victorian build with no cavity insulation (assumed) and some external wear consistent with age — the front elevation shows traditional brickwork and bay windows that may need repainting or attention. There is potential for minor damp/maintenance in places and the house will suit those happy to carry out period‑style upkeep or selective modernisation to improve energy efficiency. Council tax and local crime levels are favourable, and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Overall this is a well‑presented period family home offering character, generous living space and strong transport links, with straightforward scope to personalise and upgrade to modern standards where desired.
