Light-filled and well presented, this four-bedroom semi-detached house suits families seeking space and convenience in Shrewsbury. The ground floor offers versatile living with a living room, separate sitting room and a kitchen/dining area that opens to a large, private enclosed garden — a genuine asset for children and outdoor entertaining. Parking is straightforward with an off-street driveway and the property is freehold with gas central heating and double glazing in place.
Located close to local shops, retail parks and link roads, the home sits within easy reach of both state and independent schools, including Mount Pleasant Primary and several highly regarded independent schools nearby. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, supporting home working or streaming without compromise. There is no flood risk and council tax is described as affordable.
Be clear-eyed about context: the neighbourhood records above-average crime and the wider area is described as an ageing semi-detached suburb with a population of endeavouring social renters. The house itself is mid-20th-century stock in good presentation but will suit buyers who value space and location over period luxury finishes. Early viewing is recommended to assess fit and any updating preferences.
This property will appeal most to families who want roomy accommodation, outdoor space and easy access to schools and amenities, as well as to buyers looking for a straightforward freehold home with immediate occupation potential.
