About
Set on a quiet, friendly street in Shrewsbury, this fully refurbished one-bedroom home is a genuine turn-key opportunity, ideal for a first-time buyer or as a polished addition to any investment portfolio.
The front door opens straight into a light, contemporary lounge with modern flooring throughout and plenty of room for relaxing or entertaining, with the kitchen open just beyond.
The south-west facing frontage means the home catches the sun for much of the day, helping keep things bright and naturally warm.
The kitchen is brand new, fitted within the last couple of months: Sleek shaker-style cabinetry, dark worktops and metro tiling are paired with an integrated oven, induction hob.
A clever breakfast bar nook with feature open shelving and a built-in wine rack adds a stylish spot for morning coffee or casual dining.
Storage is well catered for throughout the home, with generous space in the kitchen, bedroom, under the stairs and in the loft.
Upstairs, the double bedroom has been tastefully decorated with a two-tone colour scheme and benefits from a particularly generous built-in cupboard, alongside room for freestanding furniture.
The bathroom, refitted around two years ago, completes the picture with full-height tiling, a generous sized walk in shower, pedestal wash basin and WC.
Practically speaking, the loft has been insulated and the property benefits from fixed electric panel heating, with hot water provided via an electric shower and a small electric water heater.
The vendor advises the property retains heat well as a result of the loft insulation; prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on this point.
Mains gas is also available to connect, with existing internal pipework already feeding through to the kitchen and a fireplace point, giving a future owner the option to install a gas heating system if desired.
Outside, the property benefits from designated parking in a private car park.
Frith Close sits within easy reach of Shrewsbury town centre, with local amenities including shops, takeaways, and a chemist.
Commuters are also well served, with quick access to the A5/M54 road network and a regular bus service into the town centre for those without a car.
While there is a chain above, the vendor's own onward purchase is already secured on a chain-free property, so buyers benefit from a short, straightforward chain.
Presented to a high standard throughout, this one is well worth a viewing. Council tax band: A. Tenure: Freehold (to be verified during pre-contract enquiries).
Approximate total area: 426.36 sq ft (39.61 sq m).
