Description

This distinctive Edwardian detached property, built in 1907, presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a spacious residence with significant renovation and investment potential. With seven bedrooms distributed over multiple levels, this home has benefitted from the care of the same family for nearly thirty-five years, yet it retains ample scope for modernization and personal touch. Characterized by its period charm, the house features an array of original details such as a hand-turned staircase, panelled doors, and decorative cornicing. The ground floor showcases generous living spaces that include a drawing room with an elegant box bay window and an inviting log burner. The kitchen family breakfast room serves as the heart of the home, offering a versatile space that can be transformed to meet contemporary lifestyle needs. Additional rooms on this level include a music room, pantry, and bathroom. On the upper floors, six large double bedrooms plus an attic room provide flexible accommodation options. While already well-proportioned, these spaces invite creative updates to suit modern family life or potential conversion depending on planning permissions. Surrounding the property are lush mature gardens that span the front, side, and rear of the home. These extensive green spaces not only enhance privacy but also offer scope for landscaping or further development in line with local regulations. The established hedges and gravel driveway lead to ample parking as well as a detached garage block that holds additional renovation possibilities. Situated in Kingsland—one of Shrewsbury’s most desirable residential areas—this home benefits from proximity to local schools known for their academic excellence, including Shrewsbury School and Shrewsbury High School for Girls. Additionally, the vibrant town center is just moments away, providing access to diverse shopping and leisure amenities alongside picturesque walking paths along the River Severn. For those commuting or traveling further afield, excellent road links via the A5/M54 facilitate easy access to Telford and beyond. With regional airports located in Birmingham, Liverpool, and Manchester nearby, this property not only offers an enviable living environment but also represents a promising investment opportunity in a highly sought-after locale.
