Description

Strapline
A Beautifully Presented Three-Bedroom Home in a Peaceful Canal-Side Setting, Within Walking Distance of Chester City Centre
Full Rightmove Description
Occupying a peaceful position within this popular part of Chester, this beautifully presented three-bedroom home offers an exceptional opportunity for buyers looking for a genuine turn-key property within easy reach of the city centre.
The property has been thoughtfully improved by the current owner, including the reconfiguration of the original two-bedroom accommodation to create a highly practical three-bedroom layout. The result is a home that combines attractive presentation with excellent versatility, making it particularly well suited to first-time buyers, couples, professionals and those requiring additional bedroom or home-working space.
Internally, the property is presented to an excellent standard throughout, allowing the next owner to move straight in and enjoy the home from day one. The accommodation has a bright, contemporary feel while retaining the warmth and character expected from a property in this established part of Chester.
The living accommodation provides a comfortable and inviting space for relaxing and entertaining, while the kitchen is well appointed with a range of fitted units, work surfaces and space for everyday cooking and dining.
Upstairs, the accommodation has been cleverly arranged to provide three bedrooms, giving considerably more flexibility than the property's original two-bedroom configuration. The additional room could work equally well as a child's bedroom, guest room, dressing room or dedicated home office depending upon the purchaser's requirements.
What really sets the property apart, however, is its location.
Despite being so convenient for the city, the setting is remarkably quiet and peaceful. The property occupies a no-through road, while the nearby Shropshire Union Canal provides attractive walking routes and the opportunity to enjoy the local wildlife and passing canal boats.
For those wanting to enjoy Chester without constantly relying on the car, the position is superb. The city centre is approximately a 20-minute walk away, while Waitrose and Aldi are also within walking distance. The canal provides enjoyable local walks, with the gym facilities at The Mill Hotel also conveniently accessible.
There is an excellent selection of local pubs, bars and amenities nearby, while sporting facilities including Boughton Hall Cricket Club and Chester Rugby Club are also within convenient reach. Families are well placed for a selection of highly regarded primary and secondary schools within the surrounding area.
The property further benefits from on-street parking, with its no-through-road position helping to create a quieter residential environment than might ordinarily be expected from somewhere so close to Chester.
For buyers seeking a beautifully presented home where much of the hard work has already been completed, this property combines three-bedroom versatility, turn-key presentation and an excellent lifestyle location.
With the canal close by and Chester city centre within walking distance, this is a home offering the increasingly difficult combination of peace and quiet without sacrificing convenience.
Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate both the standard of accommodation and superb location on offer.

Upper Landing

Bedroom Three

A fantastic addition to the property and a major feature of the home. The converted upper floor provides a generous third bedroom, creating valuable additional accommodation that could also lend itself perfectly to a guest room, home office or private space for an older child. A Velux roof window provides natural light, with a radiator and useful eaves storage making excellent use of the available space. The elevated position also provides attractive views towards the canal.

Outside

To the rear is an attractive enclosed walled courtyard, providing a private and low-maintenance outside space ideal for seating, dining and entertaining. The courtyard is paved for ease of maintenance and benefits from gated rear access. A particularly useful part-brick and part-timber outbuilding provides additional storage and benefits from both power and lighting — ideal for bicycles, outdoor equipment or potentially a small workshop area. These descriptions fit the property much better alongside the new photos because they make it sound like the turn-key, characterful three-bedroom home you're actually marketing, rather than just listing fixtures and fittings.

Chester, a picturesque city on the River Dee, is steeped in history. The Roman city walls are a draw for tourists from all over the world. The popularity of the city has made it a sought after property hub with overseas investors and developers financing redevelopment projects and driving conservation of local buildings by repurposing the stunning traditional buildings for modern day dwellings and retail spaces.

Chester is an excellent destination for shopping with many major retailers such as Marks and Spencer, Zara and Jo Malone all being located on the high street. If you are looking for something a little more unique or bespoke, Chester will not disappoint as there are a plethora of boutique and independent shops too. The 700-year-old two tired shopping galleries, The Rows, date back to the medieval era. Home to outstanding eateries and drinking establishments, they are a testament to the heritage of the area whilst also showing the diversity of the new breed of traders in the city.

Famous for being the home of Chester Racecourse, or the Roodee, as it is also known. It is recognised by the Guinness World Records as the oldest course with races dating back to the 16th century. A trip to Chester Racecourse would not be complete without booking a table at 1539. This superb restaurant serves delicious food, coupled with the floor to ceiling windows, which overlook the racecourse, creates a stunning backdrop for any special occasion.

Sharing the border with Wales, Chester is conveniently located to key travel routes and has outstanding transport links. A 10 minute drive to the north takes you to Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet and a further 20 minute drive north will take you to Liverpool via The Birkenhead or Wallasey Tunnel.

The City of Chester is very diverse and has a variety of housing, from £25,000 shared ownership homes to £2million properties. If you are looking to rent, studios are typically let for around £400pcm or if a city centre apartment is more your style, these tend to rent for £1400-1500pcm. Long lets are the norm, with the more affordable properties being unfurnished. Students to professionals, families and retirees all enjoy this historic and bustling city.
