- Off-street driveway parking to the front
- Enclosed rear garden with paved patio and lawn

A compact, modern mid-terrace arranged over two storeys, this freehold property offers straightforward living close to Shrewsbury town centre. The layout includes an entrance hall, living room, kitchen/dining room, two bedrooms and a shower room. Off-street parking to the front and an enclosed rear garden provide practical outdoor space for low-maintenance enjoyment.
Accommodation is well presented with gas central heating and double glazing; rooms are of pleasing dimensions for the overall footprint. Built around 1996–2002, the house suits a first-time buyer, commuter or small household looking for a manageable, centrally located home with easy access to amenities, the railway station and major road links.
Notable trade-offs are the small overall size and compact plot, which limit extension potential. The local area records higher crime levels than average, which may concern some buyers. There are mentions of potential maintenance issues and the double glazing install date is unknown, so buyers should budget for routine updates or checks (windows, roof and general wear).
This property represents a practical, low‑upkeep option for someone prioritising location and affordability over extensive living space. It could also work for an investor seeking a city-centre rental, given the nearby transport links and local rental demand, though prospective landlords should factor in the area’s crime profile and maintenance needs.
