Prime Chester city centre location, just 700m from the University of Chester
Fully managed by StudentFM with 24/7 security, offering a hands-off investment opportunity

Annual costs include a service charge of £2,852.27 and ground rent of £330, resulting in an approximate net income of £6,915.73 and an attractive net yield of 10.5% based on the asking price.
The development, completed in 2016, is fully managed by StudentFM, providing a completely hands-off investment solution. This makes it ideal for both new and experienced investors seeking a passive income stream.
Strategically located just 700 metres from the University of Chester campus and within walking distance of the city centre, the property benefits from consistent student demand. Chester remains a highly desirable investment location, with strict planning restrictions limiting new developments and supporting long-term rental demand.
The accommodation offers modern, purpose-built student living, including fully equipped kitchen facilities, contemporary shower rooms, and 24/7 security.
With a long 239-year lease, strong rental returns, and professional management already in place, this is a turnkey investment opportunity in a prime location.
