A substantial Grade II listed three-bedroom town house in Newtown offering generous rooms, high ceilings and a huge front lawn with development potential. The house sits within easy walking distance of the town centre and railway station, making it well placed for rental or resale once upgraded.
The property requires upgrading and modernisation throughout; mains gas central heating is present but fixtures and finishes need renewal. Listed status and an existing flying freehold impose legal constraints that will affect alterations. Purchasers must note an overage clause: if separate residential planning consent is later granted for the garden, 40% of the uplift in value will be payable to the vendors.
Practical access arrangements require attention — purchasers will need to construct a driveway across part of their garden to reach the garage and parking. The sale is by a registered charity and may be subject to standard covenants. EPC rating D and council tax above average are noted; the surrounding area scores high on deprivation and local crime statistics, which will impact lettings and resale pricing.
For an investor or renovator prepared to manage listed-building constraints and local market challenges, this property offers space, period character and a rare, large plot in a central location. Any development or conversion plans should be checked early with local planning officers given the listed status and the overage clause.
