Victoria Road, Saltney

An attractive Edwardian three-bedroom mid-terrace house situated in the well-established residential area of Saltney, conveniently located close to Chester and offering spacious accommodation together with a particularly generous rear garden which benefits from outline planning permission for the construction of a detached bungalow.

The existing property offers well-proportioned accommodation typical of homes from this period, together with a useful loft room providing additional flexible space. The property benefits from double glazed windows, a gas-fired combination boiler, and connections to mains electricity, mains water and mains drainage.

Whilst comfortable in its current form, the property would also lend itself well to a programme of modernisation or refurbishment, providing an excellent opportunity for purchasers wishing to enhance and personalise the home.

To the rear of the property lies a much larger than average rear garden, which represents one of the key features of the property. The garden already includes a brick-laid patio area and a useful brick-built outbuilding, providing practical outdoor space for the existing house.

Beyond this, the rear section of the garden benefits from outline planning permission for the construction of a single detached bungalow, presenting an appealing development opportunity within an established residential setting. Following development, the existing terrace house will retain a generous private garden area.

The area of garden forming the development plot currently includes a number of mature fruit trees, comprising two apple trees, two cherry trees, two plum trees and two crab apple trees, adding character and maturity to the site.

The initial planning application (OUT/000262/24) was refused by Flintshire County Council, however consent was subsequently granted on appeal by an Inspector appointed by the Welsh Ministers under reference CAS-04182-P9P7T7. The appeal decision was issued on 15th September 2025. Copies of the decision notice and the associated site plan are available for inspection upon request from the agent.

Prospective purchasers are strongly advised to familiarise themselves with the consent documentation and the plans associated with both the approved appeal and the original application prior to making any commitment to purchase.

The agents understand that vehicular and pedestrian access to the proposed bungalow site would be taken via an existing unadopted lane off Victoria Road, which also serves a number of neighbouring properties. Purchasers should satisfy themselves regarding these arrangements through their legal representatives.

Saltney is a well-connected residential area on the outskirts of Chester, offering a range of local amenities including shops, supermarkets, schools and leisure facilities, whilst Chester city centre is only a short distance away providing an extensive selection of retail, dining and cultural attractions. The area is also well placed for commuters, with convenient access to the A55, A483 and wider North West motorway network.

Altogether, the property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a character home together with a consented development plot, offering excellent potential for developers, investors, or purchasers seeking additional value from the site.
