Set on the top floor of a Victorian riverside townhouse, this two-bedroom apartment makes a compact, characterful home for a first-time buyer. Dual windows in the living room and raised aspects deliver clear views over the River Severn and toward Shrewsbury town centre, while tall external proportions and period brickwork add charm in a central location.
Internally the layout is efficient: two double bedrooms, a modern bathroom with shower-over-bath, a kitchen/diner with fitted units, and useful eaves storage. The main bedroom includes built-in wardrobes; the second bedroom has reduced headroom from the roofline and two low-level windows. Secondary glazing and gas central heating improve comfort.
Communal benefits include a secure wrought-iron gated entrance, a large communal patio, a side shared garden and a bicycle rack. The flat is sold as a share of freehold with a below-average service charge (£960pa/£80pm) that covers building insurance. On-street parking is available nearby and the property is not in a flood-risk zone.
Be upfront about the trade-offs: the overall size is modest (approximately 560 sq ft) so storage and living space are limited, broadband speeds are reported slow, and the local crime level is high. Pets are not permitted. These factors mean the apartment suits buyers prioritising location, low-maintenance living and riverside views over larger internal space or fast home working setups.
