The Property

14 Bridge Street is a characterful, end-of-terrace townhouse located in the heart of the pretty market town of Knighton (Tref-y-Clawdd), found directly on the Welsh/English border surrounded by picturesque countryside and rolling hills.

Built circa 1900-10 and offering period features to include exposed brickwork and timber floors, feature fireplaces and sash windows, this deceptively spacious, 4 storey home includes 5 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms, a newly installed bathroom and an open-plan kitchen diner on the lower ground floor. Outside, the property has a front and rear courtyard, as well as a good-sized, detached rear garden.

Available with no upward chain, 14 Bridge Street is conveniently located in Knighton's vibrant town centre with its many independently owned shops and facilities, public houses and restaurants just a mere stones throw away. Further afield finds the nursery & primary school, leisure centre and train station, which are all within approximately 0.5 miles. In addition, located in nearby West Street, finds the famous Offa's Dyke centre, which directly behind has a large play park and playing field and of course the Offa's Dyke footpath, which within a short 5 minute walk leads you straight into the picturesque countryside and alongside the River Teme.

Please note - In January 2022 there was a fire on the top floor of the property. The fire began in bedroom two and is where most of the damage is. The majority of the top floor suffered smoke damage and a hole was created on the floor in bedroom two, burning and damaging at least 1 floor/ceiling joist. The sellers are arranging for a structural surveyor to assess the level of damage. The electrics were turned off in the fire and have not been switched on or tested since.

Inside, an entrance lobby leads into the living room, which has a feature fireplace and stairs leading to the lower ground floor and the second floor, as well as a door opening into the rear study/utility room, which subsequently leads to the rear courtyard. The lower ground floor is where the open-plan kitchen diner can be found. The kitchen itself has matching wooden base and wall units, an inset Butler sink and a range cooker. A door opens into a useful walk-in larder. On the second floor, a landing area gives way to the newly installed bathroom and 2 bedrooms. Stairs from the landing rise up to the third and final floor where 3 further bedrooms are located. Distant views are on offer from the third floor windows.

Outside, there is a gravelled frontage, while at the rear steps from the back door lead to the courtyard garden, which has flowered beds and stone walled borders. A pathway/right of way through neighbouring gardens leads to the sizeable, detached, west-facing lawned garden, which has well-defined hedged and fenced borders and a useful garden shed.

Still a thriving market town spearheaded by local organisations, Knighton is a peaceful town offering breath taking, picturesque scenery and fully accommodates the laid back, relaxed lifestyle that many potential purchasers will be looking for. Described as the ‘The Gateway to Wales’ this market town is situated on the English/Welsh border. Mostly in Powys, partly in Shropshire it lies on the River Teme and is surrounded by hills giving the traveller a glimpse of the more remote areas accessible nearby.

The town's Welsh name is Tref-y-Clawdd meaning “Town on the Dyke”. This is a reference to Offa’s Dyke, which runs through the town, built by the Saxon King of Mercia to define his border with Wales. Every year hundreds of tourists and walkers visit the Dyke (which in its entirety runs from Prestatyn to Chepstow) and the Offa’s Dyke Centre adding a real vibe to the town during the Spring, Summer and Autumn months. While here, other attractions that visitors to the town often call upon is the famous Space Guard Centre, which offers people the chance to view the wonders of the universe in a fun and understandable way while also raising public awareness of the threat of asteroid and comet impacts and the ways in which they can predict and prevent them.
