Light-filled, ground-floor apartment with private outdoor space and secure gated parking, set a short walk from Shrewsbury town centre. The open-plan living area and modern kitchen create a low-maintenance home ready for immediate occupation — ideal for someone wanting convenience rather than a large garden to maintain. With no upward chain this property can suit a first purchase, a downsizer seeking single-level living, or an investor looking for a town-centre let.
Constructed in the mid-2000s and fitted with double glazing and gas central heating, the flat presents a largely modern finish and a practical layout: two bedrooms, a refitted bathroom and living space that opens onto a sizeable private courtyard. Allocated parking within a gated development is a notable convenience in this central location.
Buyers should note material facts: the property is leasehold with a modest ground rent of £100 and a service charge (amounts reviewed periodically). The area records above-average crime levels, which many buyers will weigh against the benefits of town-centre living and secure gated parking. EPC C and low flood risk are positives for running costs and insurance.
Locally the apartment benefits from immediate access to riverside walks, cafes, shops and transport links, plus a mix of well-regarded state and independent schools. This is a practical, well-located home that offers ease of living and clear rental potential, provided purchasers are comfortable with leasehold ownership and the local neighbourhood profile.
