Old Council House, West Street, Shipston-On-Stour

A light and spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment situated on the second floor of a handsome Grade II listed stone building, which was once the former town council offices. This apartment boasts charming views over the market town below, an allocated parking space, and a small courtyard area.

Upon entering, you are greeted by an impressive entrance hall featuring a grand staircase that provides access to three of the four apartments in the building.

As you step inside the apartment, stairs lead to a spacious landing, which would be an ideal spot for a study area. The kitchen is a decent size, equipped with a good range of units, and it opens into the dining room, offering ample space for entertaining. The sitting room features two beautiful arched sash windows, allowing plenty of natural light to flood in and providing pleasant views over the town and countryside beyond.

The main bedroom is generously sized and includes built-in wardrobes, along with an en-suite bathroom that has a shower over the bath. The second double bedroom has access to a modern shower room located off the landing, where you will also find useful eaves storage.

Outside, there is an allocated parking space and a small courtyard area that is perfect for a bistro table and a few pots. The residents collectively own a share of the freehold and currently pay £125 per month to The Old Council House Ltd. This fee covers all building repairs and updates, including the painting of windows, railings, and the shared hallway.

This apartment perfectly blends old-world charm with modern convenience, offering approximately 1500 sq ft of living space that is flooded with light. It is truly a must-see!
