Description


Main Property Description

The Setting

There is a reason people love Abbey Foregate. It has a proper community feel and puts everything within reach. Whether you are heading out for a morning coffee at a local bistro or grabbing groceries from the nearby Sainsbury's Local or Asda, it is all right on your doorstep. For families, the property is in a prime spot for sought-after school catchments. If you need to travel, the train station is a 15-minute walk away, and you have easy access to the A5 and M54 for trips further afield.

The Ground Floor

The scale of this home hits you as soon as you walk into the long hallway. The living room is a great size and features a fireplace that makes the whole room feel cozy in the winter. This leads through to the kitchen, which has classic quarry tiles and plenty of space for a breakfast table. Unlike many townhouses, you also get a separate utility room at the back. It is over 2 metres wide, meaning the washing machine and household stuff can stay tucked away, leaving your kitchen for cooking and chatting.

The Bonus Space

If you need storage, the cellar is a bit of a game-changer. At over 16 square metres, it is basically the same size as your main lounge. It is the perfect spot for bikes, tools, or even setting up a home gym.

Upstairs Living

The space keeps going as you head up. On the first floor, there is a large double bedroom with fantastic light and those views over the Abbey grounds. There is also a spacious family bathroom and a huge walk-in cupboard on the landing which is ideal for keeping the house tidy.

The top floor has two more double bedrooms, both keeping their period charm. Having three genuine doubles means you have total flexibility. This is perfect if you need a quiet home office or plenty of room for guests.

The Garden

Living this close to town usually means giving up on greenery, but this house comes with access to a beautiful walled garden shared with a few neighbours. It has a real secret garden feel. It is a peaceful spot for a drink in the sun.

The Parking

Being in such a historic, central spot, there is not a private driveway. However, the setup is very practical. There is restricted (3 hour stay between 0800-1800, Monday to Saturday) on-street parking outside which is perfect for unloading the shopping or quick stops. For long-term parking, most residents here use a yearly permit for the local car park just a stones throw  away. It is a small price to pay to live in such an iconic location, and once you are here, you will likely find yourself walking to most places anyway.

The Details

This recently decorated home is ready for someone new to move in and enjoy. It has mains gas heating and a solid EPC D rating which is decent for a listed building. If you are looking for a home with history, space, and a location that puts the town at your feet, come and have a look.
