A charming period home in the very popular and highly desirable Cherry Orchard area, perfectly positioned on the outskirts of Shrewsbury town centre. Offering a wonderful blend of character, comfort and practicality, the property retains an abundance of period appeal alongside useful modern improvements. High ceilings, decorative cornicing, character fireplaces and a bay window create a warm and distinctive feel, while the recently replaced and insulated roof and Worcester Bosch boiler offer reassuring practical benefits. The open-plan living and dining space provides an inviting hub for both relaxing and entertaining, complemented by mature gardens and gated side access. The location is equally appealing, with the town centre within walking distance and its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés and restaurants close at hand, alongside the renowned Quarry Park and Dingle Gardens.
