Summary - 3 NEW STREET BISHOPS CASTLE SY9 5DQ
Two double bedrooms across three compact floors
This traditional mid-terrace cottage blends period character with practical modern upgrades, making it a good option for first-time buyers seeking a cosy town-base in South Shropshire. The sitting room centres on a wood-burning stove beneath exposed beams, while a recent kitchen and bathroom provide ready-to-use accommodation across three compact floors.
The private, multi-level rear patio is low-maintenance and very private, with a well-kept detached outbuilding that has been used as a gym or workshop. Double glazing has been installed and some external rendering renewed, reducing immediate exterior maintenance.
Buyers should note this is an older granite-built cottage with assumed no cavity insulation in the walls and electric heating via room heaters and programmable radiators. Heating costs can be higher than gas-heated homes and further insulation work may be required to improve efficiency. The plot and rooms are modest in size and ceiling heights are low to standard, which suits cosy living but may limit large furniture.
Set in a small-town location with excellent mobile signal, easy access to local shops, schools and amenities, the home offers convenient commuter links by road to larger centres. Council Tax band is inexpensive, and there is no flood risk reported. Overall this is a charming, characterful starter home with clear potential to personalise and improve energy performance over time.
