Property description

A characterful terraced stone cottage in a convenient town setting, and comprising 2 bedrooms, en-suite shower and bathroom, living room, kitchen and charming private courtyard garden. Ideal for those seeking and investment to let, downsizing or as second home

General Remarks - Castle Street is one of the most popular and oldest parts of the town, just set away from the market square and overlooking the old castle grounds which is a peaceful and protected open space. This mid terraced cottage was refurbished some years ago and boasts several characterful features which include lime plaster walls and ceiling beams. Arranged over three floors, the two bedrooms are each a good size and both have an en-suite bathroom or shower room, together with views beyond the town to rolling hills or the afore mentioned castle grounds. The ground floor living room has an impressive inglenook fireplace with a cosy wood burner and the kitchen has a practical country feel and leads to the charming, modest courtyard space at the rear which catches the afternoon/evening sun.

The cottage is ideally suited to the holiday letting market, just a short walk from The Castle Hotel, or should equally appeal to those downsizing or seeking a modest second home.

Situation - The cottage is found on Castle Street in the older, upper part of the town, just a short stroll from the market centre and the excellent range of local services and amenities. It overlooks the protected open space known as The Castle Grounds which can be enjoyed by all and is only a few minutes walk to the beautiful countryside for which this area of South Shropshire is well known. The larger towns of Shrewsbury and Ludlow are in comfortable driving distance and offer access to the national rail and motorway network.
