About this property

**A Character Apartment with Leafy Church Views – Right in the Heart of Shrewsbury**

Some apartments feel a little… samey. Four walls, neutral tones, and not much else.
This one couldn’t be more different.

Set within a beautiful Grade II listed building - believed to date back to the mid-1800s and once home to a former school - this ground floor apartment blends real character with a surprisingly peaceful setting, right in the heart of town.

And the outlook?
Genuinely special.

Overlooking the leafy surroundings and the striking St Alkmund’s Church, it’s a view that changes with the seasons - and one you won’t tire of.

**Light, Space and Plenty of Charm**

Step inside and there’s an immediate feeling that this is something a bit special.
Warm, honey-toned wooden flooring flows throughout, while the proportions - high ceilings, tall windows, generous room sizes - give the whole apartment a sense of space that’s hard to find in modern builds.

The main living space is a brilliant all-rounder. Plenty of room to relax, dine, or host - all bathed in natural light from those beautiful leaded windows, which perfectly frame the greenery and church beyond. It’s the kind of room you look forward to coming back to.

The kitchen is well set up with ample storage and worktop space, along with integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer, oven and grill, and gas hob - everything you need, whether it’s a quick midweek meal or something a little more ambitious.

**Two Bedrooms – Flexible and Surprisingly Spacious**

Both bedrooms continue the same sense of space and character.
The main bedroom is particularly impressive - generous in size, with those same large windows drawing in plenty of light while maintaining a private, leafy outlook. It’s an easy room to unwind in… coffee in bed highly encouraged!

The second bedroom, currently used as a home office, benefits from dual-aspect windows and works just as well as a guest room, workspace, or creative studio.

**A Bathroom That Feels Like a Retreat**

Recently installed, the bathroom brings a slightly more indulgent feel.
A freestanding bath sits alongside a large walk-in rain shower - giving it that relaxed, spa-like atmosphere. Practical, but with a bit of luxury built in.

**The Setting – Quiet, Central, and Surprisingly Peaceful**

What really sets this home apart is its position.

Right in the heart of Shrewsbury


with everything the town has to offer just moments away
yet tucked into a quieter, leafy setting, away from passing traffic.

It’s a rare balance. And one that’s genuinely hard to find.

14 St Alkmund’s Square sits within a peaceful enclave, right in the town’s much sought-after “Loop” of the River Severn.

Step out the door and you’re immediately surrounded by a fantastic mix of independent shops, restaurants, bars and cafés


everything that makes Shrewsbury such a great place to live.

And yet… despite being so central, the setting itself feels calm and tucked away, with a noticeably more relaxed feel than you might expect from a town centre apartment


something that’s genuinely quite rare.

From here, it’s just a short stroll to some of the town’s best-loved spots


including The Quarry, the banks of the River Severn, and the train station
all within around a 5–10 minute walk.

*PARKING:* The current owners utilise the Abbey Foregate public car park (approx. 10-minute walk), available via an annual permit.
