Description:
A SPACIOUS AND MOST APPEALING EDWARDIAN SEMI-DETACHED FAMILY HOUSE WITH ATTRACTIVE GARDENS IN A SOUGHT AFTER AND PRESTIGIOUS LOCATION CLOSE TO THE TOWN CENTRE.
LOCATION
From the Town Centre Welsh Bridge proceed to Frankwell roundabout, take the first left exit, then first left again onto New Street. Continue past the Boat House Pub and up Porthill Road, continue a short distance along the flat section and the property will be found on the right hand side second driveway prior to the turning for Porthill Drive.
SITUATION
The property is most attractively situated set well back from the road, slight elevated within the sought after and prestigious residential area of Porthill, having the benefit of a number of amenities close at hand. The Town Centre is within easy walking distance via Porthill Footbridge, which also gives access to delightful walks through The Quarry and along the banks of the River Severn. The Town Centre provides a comprehensive range of shops, restaurants, social amenities and a rail service. There is an excellent choice of private and state schooling in the locality including Shrewsbury School, Shrewsbury High Preparatory School, Shrewsbury High School for Girls, Priory School and Shrewsbury XI Form College. Commuters will find ready access to the main A5 route, linking through to Telford and the M54 motorway or alternately north towards Oswestry and onto Chester.
DESCRIPTION
The property offers a seldom opportunity to acquire an imposing period three storey semi-detached house, understood to have been built during the early 1900's and offers distinctive architecture with impressively spacious accommodation. The layout provides an unusual entrance portico with a spacious reception hall featuring terrazzo flooring. There are three reception rooms on the ground floor, two of which feature cornice and rose ceilings, with the main sitting room providing a distinctive period fireplace. The breakfast/kitchen, which has been designed and extended by the present owners, includes twin doors leading out onto the rear patio, taking advantage of the rear aspect. There are five bedrooms divided over two upper floors and are served by two bathrooms and a separate wc, whilst the box room offers useful scope for a smaller sixth bedroom, storage or second floor study/computer room. The accommodation offers a number of traditional features together with extensive secondary/ double glazed windows and a gas fired central heating system.
Outside the property is approached up a good length driveway with parking space for a number of cars. Attractive size garden areas are provided to the front and rear, which could provide an opportunity to be modifed, due to the extensive rear patio area, if required. One of the main appealing feature to this property is the natural screening from Porthill Road by natural shrubs and trees particularly during the spring and summer.
