Town centre property offers unique ambiance

One of Shrewsbury’s fine Grade II* Listed Georgian buildings is on the market for the first time in more than 80 years.

Windsor House is nestled just off the main High Street, overlooking St Mary’s Church, the River Severn and Shropshire Hills. Built in 1768 it uniquely retains much of its original fine Georgian interior including a splendid oak staircase, oak panelling and ornate ceiling cornicing.

Alistair Hilton, head of sales at Balfours, explains: “The accommodation comprises of 18 rooms arranged over five storeys and is currently let to a number of different businesses who enjoy high quality serviced office accommodation in the building with shared reception area, board room and associated facilities.”

The property offers a sound and flexible investment opportunity with its existing rental income stream plus it has boundless potential for those seeking a distinctly special ambiance: Whether that is commercial or residential, from a single home, perhaps with consultancy rooms, to high-end apartments or boutique hotel. True to its era the principal rooms, which account for more than half, are of generous proportions of 20 to 30 square metres.

“Its assets are many, but not least its discrete vantage point, hardly a minute’s walk from the High Street, with River walks, the Quarry Park. There is an excellent selection of schools, train station, plus of course excellent independent shops and restaurants all within walking distance,” Alistair adds.
