**VIRTUAL VIEWING**
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Grade II Listed Georgian townhouse within Chester’s historic city walls. With planning permission already approved and the property stripped back ready for refurbishment, it presents an outstanding value-add opportunity for investors, developers and owner-occupiers.
Arranged over a cellar and three principal floors, the former accommodation extended to approximately 2,643 sq. ft. and included four bedrooms, several reception rooms and extensive ancillary space. Its generous proportions offer the potential to create five-bedroom accommodation, depending on the purchaser’s chosen configuration. The property has since been stripped back internally and now requires comprehensive refurbishment.
Planning permission and Listed Building Consent have been approved under references 26/00710/FUL and 26/00711/LBC for a single-storey rear extension, an extension to the first-floor roof terrace and internal alterations. The approved proposals provide a clear route to enhancing the layout, increasing the usable accommodation and maximising the property’s long-term value.
The building retains a wealth of period character, including decorative ceilings, ceiling roses, coving, wall panelling, period staircases and fireplaces. Restored and combined with a high-quality contemporary finish, the property has the potential to become one of Chester’s most distinctive city homes.
Cuppin Street is ideally positioned for Chester’s renowned Rows, independent shops, restaurants, cafés and bars. Chester Cathedral, Storyhouse, the River Dee, Grosvenor Shopping Centre and Chester Racecourse are all within easy reach, alongside the railway station and wider road connections.
