Built by Thomas Carline in the early 19th Century, this elegant Grade ll listed Georgian town house has undergone complete refurbishment by its current vendors, sympathetically retaining many of its original listed features whilst introducing the benefits and luxuries of modern living. Fine period features include stone staircases, large sash windows with original folding shutters, original decorative Georgian coving, marble fireplaces, panelled doors, deep skirtings and high ceilings with ornate ceiling roses.

Beautifully presented family accommodation is offered over four floors and comprises six to seven bedrooms, two fully fitted and high specification kitchens including an Aga/ family/breakfast room, three to four reception rooms (or additional seventh bedroom), study, four bathrooms and extensive dry cellars. Front garden and rear two tier, walled garden with private parking for three cars.

A grand entrance hall, with original marbled flooring, corniced ceilings and stone staircase with an impressive balustrade, set the tone of this magnificent home. Panelled doors lead to large rooms either side; to the left, an elegant study with fitted cupboards and decorative ceiling rose and to the right, a dining room showcasing an oak lined Georgian style fireplace with slate hearth and large bay windows complete with original folding shutters, enhancing the natural spaciousness of these high- ceilinged rooms. The ground floor is completed by excellent guest accommodation with a bedroom and bathroom on one level. The lower ground floor with quarry tiled hall leads to a warm and inviting Aga/breakfast family room with seating and storage areas. This, in turn opens into a large kitchen area with floor to ceiling cabinetry and is lit with natural light from a tall window overlooking the rear patio and, to the opposite side, providing access to an equally well fitted utility room. Full width dry cellars with lighting and power, are reached via stone steps and provide excellent storage and wine rack areas.

Two further large and excellently presented bedrooms and a bathroom are situated on the second floor along with a grand, and welcoming, drawing room bathed in natural daylight by two large sash windows overlooking the popular area of Abbey Foregate with the Lord Hill column in view to the left and to the right, and within easy walking access, Shrewsbury Abbey. Ascending to the third floor, three equally large and impressive bedrooms can be found with two newly appointed bathrooms, all beautifully presented and immaculately maintained.

Garden and Grounds
The front garden features an attractive carved, Grinshill stone balustrade. An imposing iron gate provides access to a flagstone path, bordered by cobbles leading to the front entrance door with lawns laid to either side of the pathway. Two stone steps lead up to the front door.
The rear entrance door opens to a paved courtyard with garden tap, and raised planting bed. Three stone steps access an attractive, well-stocked wall garden area comprising a paved path leading to a patio.
