Description

An elegant and deceptively spacious Grade II listed townhouse of considerable character, occupying a prominent position within the heart of the North Shropshire market town of Wem.

This distinguished period residence reveals beautifully proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors, seamlessly blending historic charm with practical modern living. A wealth of original features has been thoughtfully preserved, including quarry tiled flooring, feature fireplaces and well-balanced room proportions, all of which enhance the architectural integrity of the house.

The ground floor provides an impressive reception room of excellent scale, centred around a character fireplace, offering a refined yet welcoming principal living space. Beyond lies a versatile dining room or secondary sitting room, ideally suited to both formal entertaining and relaxed day-to-day living. The kitchen is fitted in a timeless style with cream cabinetry, complemented by original quarry tiled flooring, reinforcing the heritage of the property. From here, access is provided to an enclosed courtyard garden.

Externally, the courtyard garden offers a private and low-maintenance retreat, with raised beds, an attractive walled boundary and a useful lean-to, creating an intimate outdoor setting ideal for al fresco dining or container gardening.

To the first floor are two generously proportioned double bedrooms, each enjoying excellent natural light, together with a well-appointed family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and separate shower enclosure. The second floor continues the theme of spacious accommodation, providing two further double bedrooms with excellent storage, making the property equally well suited to family occupation, guest accommodation or home working.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and beautifully maintained period townhouse of notable character, positioned within convenient reach of local amenities and transport links.
