The property: Occupying the top two floors of Kingsland Bridge Mansions, number 11 is a spacious Grade II listed penthouse apartment within this prestigious development. Constructed in 1881 of red Ruabon brick, the striking neo-Gothic style building was originally the county’s Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital. Sympathetically converted in 2001 by Shropshire Homes, Kingsland Bridge Mansions remains one of the town’s iconic landmarks with its decorative terracotta tiles and a distinctive spire.

The entrance level offers an open plan kitchen dining room with a wonderful high ceiling, picture rail and is afforded an abundance of natural light from large windows overlooking the medieval town. The attractive kitchen was fitted in 2018 with a range of shaker style units and Neff appliances under silestone work surfaces.

There are two double bedrooms with built in wardrobes, one served by an en-suite shower room and with views toward St Chad’s Church. A family bathroom with inbuilt vanity unit completes this floor.

The U-shape staircase rises to the upper floor and into a spacious double aspect drawing room with awe inspiring views across the town and French doors onto the balcony. A study could serve as a third bedroom which also enjoys superb views across the town and there is a WC with storage space found adjacent.
