House For Sale £1,250,000
Having undergone sympathetic modernisation and extension, completed in 2017, Abbey Road House is a beautifully appointed and handsome Georgian town residence found close to the English Bridge and the River Severn.
The property has been carefully restored, re modelled and extended, combining modern infrastructure and premium contemporary finishes whilst retaining superb period features. It is exquisitely presented, with individually styled rooms offering a versatile layout that lends itself to comfortable family living and larger scale entertaining.
The accommodation flows from an impressive central entrance hallway, with two principal reception rooms to either side, both with large bay windows, fireplaces, and ornate cornice/freeze workings. The fitted Buster and Punch kitchen forms part of the rear extension, flowing into a raised sitting area with twin bi fold doors and views over the gardens. Connected to the kitchen via a back hall is a large pantry and W/C. The generous cellars and music studio are accessed from an inner staircase.
On the first floor is a beautiful principal bedroom suite with a walk-in dressing room and en-suite bathroom. A further double bedroom and a superb home office/ bedroom with vaulted ceiling are served by the family bathroom and separate W/C.
On the second floor are three further bedrooms (one with an en suite bathroom) and an additional shared bathroom. A spiral staircase leads to the rooftop terrace with 360-degree views over the town and surrounding countryside.
Garden and grounds
On foot, Abbey Road House is approached to the front via stone steps flanked by white Georgian pillars. A rear driveway allows private, off-road parking for several vehicles.
There is a landscaped rear walled garden, with an attractive seating area and large terrace. The converted outbuilding towards the bottom of the garden now provides a games room/bar, called the 'Chickens Head'.
Abbey Road House stands within a desirable residential area, close to the English Bridge and under a mile from Shrewsbury Town Centre, within close proximity of beautiful riverside walks.
Shrewsbury Town offers an excellent range of amenities including a large variety of boutique and specialist shops, art galleries, artisan foods and drinks, a superb choice of cafes, bars and restaurants, cinemas and theatres. The nearby Quarry Park offers 29 acres of flower gardens, parkland and riverside walks. Shrewsbury Train Station provides main line services to Birmingham New Street and London Euston.
