3 bed 1 bath Town House
Private off-street parking space adjacent to property
Newly renovated throughout with bespoke kitchen and fittings
Three double bedrooms; single well-fitted shower room
Approximately 1,083 sq ft — well-proportioned mews footprint
Small paved courtyard terraces and planted raised beds
Solid brick construction; likely little or no wall insulation
Very slow broadband speeds despite excellent mobile signal
High local crime level reported — consider security needs
Tucked into a quiet courtyard on Swan Hill, this newly renovated three-bedroom mews-style townhouse offers low-maintenance town-centre living with genuine period character. The interior has been carefully updated — bespoke kitchen, attractive wood-burning stove and reclaimed flooring — to deliver a stylish, ready-to-move-in home for buyers who value location and presentation.
The house is surprisingly well-proportioned for a mews property (approximately 1,083 sq ft) with three double bedrooms on the first floor and a single well-fitted shower room. Outside there are two paved terraces, planted raised beds and a private off-street parking space — a rare convenience in a central setting close to the Market Square, Quarry Park and riverside walks.
Important practical points are clear: the building is solid brick and likely has little cavity insulation, and it was constructed before 1900. Heating is mains gas via a modern boiler and Victorian-style radiators; double glazing has been fitted but installation dates are unspecified. Broadband speeds are very slow here despite excellent mobile signal, and crime levels in the immediate area are reported as high — factors to weigh for anyone working from home or prioritising neighbourhood quiet.
This freehold, chain-free property suits a buyer seeking a compact, characterful home in the heart of Shrewsbury — ideal for first-time buyers or those wanting a low-maintenance town base with off-street parking. The presentation and recent upgrades reduce immediate maintenance, but potential buyers should consider energy-efficiency improvements and the single-bathroom layout when assessing longer-term suitability.
