Abbey Foregate, four-bedroom period home

South Park is an attractive town house, located behind Shrewsbury’s Abbey, on the fringe of the town centre.

Launched to the market by Balfours, head of sales, Alistair Hilton comments: “This grade II* listed, 4-bedroom home has been recently renovated, including a new roof, to achieve a highly desirable internal space where period features are enhanced by 21^st century design.”

Step inside, the Tudor style timber front door provides a portico with excellent storage and onwards into the generous open plan hallway which reaches back to the dedicated kitchen area and left to the dining space. This open plan design succeeds in demarking areas through clever use of period character.

Beyond the dining room is an elegant lounge where light billows in from two windows on the gable end with enchanting views onto the Shrewsbury Abbey and its grounds. This well-proportioned room is balanced by a stone fire surround with Clearview stove. To the opposite side of the hallway is a cloakroom, utility and boot room with a useful side entrance. The property comes with parking for up to 3 cars and a low maintenance terrace garden.

From the hallway, stairs lead to 2 generous double bedrooms and a large bathroom with bath and shower. There are a further 2 double bedrooms on the second floor, together with a bathroom again equipped with bath and shower. The principal bedroom and the double room directly above also benefit from stunning views of the Abbey, just yards away.

Alistair adds: “South Park is very well positioned yet remarkably quiet; not only for the town centre, but for an excellent choice of state and private schooling, together with further education facilities. Essentially shopping, fine dining, theatre, the Quarry Park and river walks are all on the doorstep, as is access to rail and road networks.” Balfours are marketing South Park with a guide price of £650,000.
