The Property
No.7 Victoria Road is a characterful, mid-terraced house located in the heart of the pretty market town of Knighton (Tref-Y-Clawdd), found directly on the Welsh/English border surrounded by picturesque countryside and rolling hills.
Available with no upward chain, No.7 is well maintained and offers UPVC double glazed windows and external doors, as well as a 'Worcester' boiler, but does now require modernisation. The property has period features including fireplaces and a useful cellar with original flag stone flooring and is deceptively spacious with 3 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms, 1 bathroom and a rear kitchen. The property is located on sought-after Victoria Road, conveniently 300 yards (approx.) from Knighton's vibrant town centre with its many independently owned shops and facilities, public houses and restaurants. Further afield finds the nursery & primary school, leisure centre and train station, which are all within approximately 0.5 miles. In addition, located in neighbouring West Street, finds the famous Offa's Dyke centre, which directly behind has a large play park and playing field and of course the Offa's Dyke footpath, which within a short 5 minute walk leads you straight into the picturesque countryside and alongside the River Teme.
Inside, the formal accommodation spans across 2 storeys and is made up on the ground floor of an entrance hall with stairs rising off to the first floor, a front living room, the dining room and a rear kitchen. A door from the kitchen leads outside to the garden, while a further door from the dining room opens to a stairwell leading down to the useful cellar. On the first floor, a landing area gives way to the bathroom and all 3 bedrooms to include 2 doubles and a single. The rear bedroom has a built-in wardrobe housing the boiler, while all 3 bedrooms enjoy distant views.
Outside and yet another quality feature to this delightful property is the good-sized rear garden, which is perfect for horticultural enthusiasts to get their green fingers stuck into and enjoys panoramic views across Kinsley Wood, making it a delightful place to sit and relax within the warmer months of the year! In addition and attached to the rear of the property is an outside W.C and useful store/workshop (2.4m x 2.7m). The front garden is paved for ease of maintenance, while at the bottom of the rear garden there is a sizeable (6.0m x 3.1m) detached garage along with a tarmacadam drive providing off road parking for 1 vehicle. The parking area/garage is accessed off neighbouring Cemetery Road.
No.7 Victoria Road could be an ideal first step onto the property ladder for first time buyers, relocating purchasers seeking to be close to shops and facilities or even a holiday-let for budding investors in this beautiful town found directly on the Offas Dyke footpath.

The town features a large community centre which has a strong volunteer network attached to it. The centre holds a monthly community market and in addition a number of charities, organisations and clubs use the centre for their activities. Still a thriving market town spearheaded by local organisations, Knighton is a peaceful town offering breath taking, picturesque scenery and fully accommodates the laid back, relaxed lifestyle that many potential purchasers will be looking for. Described as the ‘The Gateway to Wales’ this market town is situated on the English/Welsh border. Mostly in Powys, partly in Shropshire it lies on the River Teme and is surrounded by hills giving the traveller a glimpse of the more remote areas accessible nearby.
The town's Welsh name is Tref-Y-Clawdd meaning “Town on the Dyke”. This is a reference to Offa’s Dyke, which runs through the town, built by the Saxon King of Mercia to define his border with Wales. Every year hundreds of tourists and walkers visit the Dyke (which in its entirety runs from Prestatyn to Chepstow) and the Offa’s Dyke Centre adding a real vibe to the town during the Spring, Summer and Autumn months. While here, other attractions that visitors to the town often call upon is the famous Space Guard Centre, which offers people the chance to view the wonders of the universe in a fun and understandable way while also raising public awareness of the threat of asteroid and comet impacts and the ways in which they can predict and prevent them. Larger towns near to Knighton are the medieval market town of Ludlow, 18 miles East, and the Victorian Spa town Llandrindod Wells, 19 Miles South West. Both are easily accessible via road or rail links and offer further recreational, educational and leisure facilities.
