About this property

Castlefields has become one of the most popular places in Shrewsbury for people who want to live without needing the car, and this house shows why. The River Severn is three minutes from the front door, the railway station is eight, and the town centre's independent shops, cafés and restaurants are a fifteen-minute walk away along Victorian streets. Inside, the period features are all original, from the high ceilings and arched front window to a cast-iron fire you can actually light. Add a large master bedroom, a home office, a south-facing courtyard garden and no onward chain, and it's an easy house to fall for.
