Bold Square, Chester, CH1 3LZ

Ref: MR0788

The Property
An elegant detached late Georgian / early Victorian residence, discreetly positioned on a peaceful no-through road in the very heart of Chester. Overlooking the leafy calm of Bold Square, this beautifully proportioned period home offers exceptional versatility, arranged as two spacious self-contained duplex apartments with private terraces and licensed parking. A genuinely rare opportunity to secure a quiet central property with remarkable flexibility.

Behind its refined period façade, the property reveals accommodation of unexpected scale. Original architectural features including sash windows, decorative cornicing and retained string courses speak to its heritage, while thoughtful modernisation ensures comfort and practicality throughout.

The current layout comprises two generous duplex apartments, each with its own private entrance. This configuration lends itself perfectly to a range of uses, including multi-generational living, blended households, guest accommodation or supplementary income. Equally, there is clear potential to reconfigure the property into a substantial single dwelling, should a purchaser prefer.

Each apartment benefits from modern kitchens, well-proportioned living spaces and comfortable bedrooms, with a natural flow that works equally well for everyday living and entertaining.

 
Outside Space
A standout feature of the property is its unusually tranquil setting. Both apartments enjoy access to private terrace areas, creating inviting outdoor spaces for relaxation and entertaining. The leafy outlook across Bold Square provides a sense of seclusion rarely found so close to the city centre. Hot tubs may be available by separate negotiation.

Licensed parking for two vehicles is located nearby, offering everyday convenience without detracting from the quiet nature of the setting. Chester railway station, the historic city walls, Grosvenor Park and the city’s excellent dining and retail amenities are all within easy reach.

 
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
In total, the property offers six bedrooms and four bathrooms across the two duplexes. The accommodation includes a mix of en-suite bathrooms, a family shower room and a wet room, providing excellent flexibility for both private residential use and short-stay accommodation. Contemporary fittings sit comfortably alongside the building’s period character.

The property has a proven track record for high-demand short-stay use, and for purchasers wishing to continue this, certain operational elements may be available by separate negotiation. However, it remains equally well suited to owner-occupation.

 

Offered with no onward chain, this is a highly adaptable and characterful period home in one of Chester’s most discreet central locations. Combining heritage, space, privacy and flexibility, it presents a rare opportunity to acquire a deceptively spacious property with both lifestyle appeal and income potential.
