Situation
Ironbridge is a renowned and historic area nestling in The Severn Gorge which forms one of the most striking and distinctive landscapes in England, with a charming town centre adjoining the River Severn and the slopes of The Gorge combining a delightful mix of imposing, detached period residences mingling with charming cottages up the hillside. This remarkable area was at the heart of the Industrial Revolution and became world famous in 1779 when the world’s first iron bridge was constructed over the River Severn and from which the town derives its name. It is steeped in the industrial heritage of the area with local museums forming part of the World Heritage Site and is now recognised as a premier tourist area. Some five miles to the north is the Telford town centre with its wide range of recreational and shopping facilities, including the New Southwater development, the M54 motorway and the town’s central railway station.
Belmont Road is pleasantly situated on the upper slopes of The Gorge and comprises other distinctive character properties.
The property
Comprises a timber front door leading to the living room where there is a glazed panel door leading to the inner hallway which has an opening leading through to the kitchen and staircase ascending to the first floor. The kitchen would benefit from complete renovation and has an external door leading to the side alleyway.
On the first floor there is a landing area with access to two bedrooms. The main bedroom gives access to the bathroom/wc which has an avocado coloured suite which would benefit from refurbishment.
Outside
Access to the rear is approached via a neighbouring property. A metal gate leads to the side alleyway where there is an outside wash house and shower room and attached brick store. The rear garden has a pleasant aspect and is not overlooked and is predominantly tiered with various gravelled areas with a number of inset flowers and shrubs and greenhouse.
How to get there – from Ironbridge centre proceed up Madeley Road; after about 500 yards turn sharp left into Belmont Road – continue up the hill where the property is on the right hand side.
