Period charm with big potential, modern services, short walk to Shrewsbury town centre.
Chain free freehold Victorian semi-detached house
This attractive Victorian semi-detached house on Canon Street combines period charm with practical recent updates. A new roof, new gas boiler, full rewire and replacement consumer unit have been completed with certificates available, giving confidence in the core services. The property is chain free and offered as freehold, making a straightforward purchase for families or buyers seeking a project with lower immediate risk.
Inside, rooms are generously proportioned for a property of about 883 sq ft: a bay-fronted living room, separate dining room, and a spacious breakfast room that links to the kitchen. The attic has been improved and benefits from a window, offering additional light and potential extra space. Broadband and mobile connectivity are strong here, and the house sits within easy walking distance of Shrewsbury town centre via the English Bridge.
There are clear renovation tasks remaining. The kitchen is dated (1980s timber cabinetry and tiles) and the bathroom is ready to be refitted. The small paved rear garden and lack of garage will suit buyers wanting low-maintenance outdoor space rather than large grounds or parking. Walls are original solid brick with no known insulation upgrades, so further energy efficiency improvements may be needed.
Overall this period home will suit a family or purchaser seeking a character property with many key mechanicals already resolved. It offers immediate liveability while presenting scope for cosmetic improvement and adaptation to create a contemporary family layout.
