Property number 53896. Enquire through Rightmove's messaging system and we'll respond within 5 minutes, 24/7. One of the main attractions of this apartment is its combination of space, privacy and convenience. Although it is only around five minutes’ walk from Shrewsbury railway station and the town centre, it occupies a quiet ground-floor position towards the rear of Benbow Quay, away from the main road.
The apartment has its own private front door, opening onto a small lawn area that provides a pleasant space to sit outside. There is also a second entrance through the communal hallway, giving useful alternative access. Exclusive use of an allocated parking space is included with the property - an especially valuable feature this close to the centre of town.
Inside, the accommodation extends to approximately 59 square metres and has a practical, well-proportioned layout. The bright living room has plenty of space, while the separate fitted kitchen and dining area keeps cooking distinct from the main living space.
There are two comfortable bedrooms. The larger bedroom currently accommodates a super-king bed, which can also be arranged as twins, while the second is also a good-sized double room. The additional bedroom gives the apartment flexibility for a couple, small family, visiting guests or anyone wanting a dedicated home office.
The bathroom was completely replaced in 2021 and has been finished in a clean, modern style. The apartment has been carefully maintained throughout and is ready for a new owner without the need for any major work.
Benbow Quay is a well-established riverside development within easy walking distance of Shrewsbury’s shops, cafés, restaurants and historic streets. Its central location makes it easy to enjoy the town without relying on a car, while the apartment’s position towards the quieter rear of the development gives it a more peaceful and private feel than many town-centre properties.
The combination of two bedrooms, ground-floor accommodation, private outdoor space and allocated parking could suit a wide range of buyers, whether looking for a permanent home, a convenient base in Shrewsbury, a downsizing option or a well-located long-term rental property.
The lease was granted for 199 years from 2005, leaving approximately 179 years remaining. The current service charge is around £2,800 per year and the ground rent is £100 per year.
Furniture may be available by separate negotiation if required.
