Description
Situated along one of Boughton’s most established residential roads, Filkins Lane is an attractive and extended three-bedroom semi-detached home combining traditional character with generous, versatile living accommodation. Having been carefully maintained and recently improved, the property offers three reception areas, two shower rooms, a substantial private garden and excellent off-road parking, all within easy reach of Chester city centre.
The property is approached via an attractive Indian stone driveway providing ample parking, complemented by a mature front garden offering a pleasant degree of privacy. Inside, a spacious entrance hallway features ceramic tiled flooring, an original staircase and attractive period detailing.
To the front, a bright and welcoming living room enjoys a large bay window, decorative coving and a living-flame gas fire with an elegant marble-effect surround. Neutral carpeting and generous proportions create a comfortable space for relaxing.
The extended ground floor provides a further sitting room with a recessed gas fire, opening through to a spacious dining room. French doors lead directly onto the rear patio, while fitted plantation shutters and views across the garden create an attractive setting for family meals and entertaining.
The generous L-shaped kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of contemporary light blue cabinetry, complemented by chrome handles and tiled flooring. There is ample worktop and storage space, alongside provision for a range-style cooker, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Windows to both the front and rear provide plenty of natural light, with a glazed door offering convenient access to the garden.
A modern ground-floor shower room adds further practicality, featuring a spacious walk-in rainfall shower, WC, wash basin and heated towel rail. The hallway also provides useful storage, including a cupboard housing the Worcester combination boiler.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all offering comfortable accommodation. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, with a large bay window overlooking Filkins Lane and ample room for a super king-size bed. The second bedroom enjoys views over the rear garden and benefits from an extensive range of fitted wardrobes, while the third is a generous bedroom rather than a typical small box room.
A contemporary family shower room serves the first floor, fitted with a white suite comprising a shower enclosure, pedestal wash basin, WC and chrome heated towel rail.
Outside, the beautifully established rear garden is a particular highlight. Larger than many neighbouring plots, it features an attractive Indian stone patio, two lawned areas, mature hedging and a substantial tree along the rear boundary. Enjoying excellent privacy and a sunny aspect, the garden also benefits from a summerhouse and useful storage shed.
The property has undergone a programme of recent improvements, including new carpeting, replacement internal doors and investigative and remedial works relating to matters identified during a previous survey. Supporting documentation is available for prospective purchasers to review.
Filkins Lane is ideally positioned in the popular Boughton area of Chester, with a wide range of local shops, supermarkets, cafés and schools nearby. The Shropshire Union Canal provides an attractive walking route towards the city centre, while Boughton Hall Cricket Club, local green spaces and convenient road connections further enhance the location.
With its generous accommodation, character features, established gardens and convenient position just over a mile from Chester city centre, Filkins Lane offers an appealing family home in a highly regarded residential setting.
