Ideal retirement purchase close to canal towpath and Chester amenities.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with private rear garden
A well-presented two-bedroom ground-floor apartment designed for low-maintenance living in the popular village of Christleton. Set alongside the Shropshire Union Canal, the home offers a private rear garden—rare for apartments—plus an allocated parking space and visitor bays. Finished in a modern neutral style with integrated kitchen appliances, this property is move-in ready and benefits from an active NHBC warranty.
This home is sold through the Affordable Homes Scheme, allowing ownership at 70% of market value. It is leasehold with 117 years remaining; annual charges include a service charge (around £1,520) and a small ground rent (£200). The apartment totals approximately 519 sq ft, suited to buyers looking to downsize or retire in a village setting with easy access into Chester via the canal towpath.
Practical strengths include an open-plan living area with French doors to garden, gas central heating via boiler and radiators, off-street allocated parking, and a peaceful, well-kept development. Notable considerations are the modest internal size, recurring annual costs (service charge and ground rent), and that ownership is subject to the Affordable Homes terms. No onward chain makes for a straightforward purchase.
Overall, this is an attractive, low-upkeep retirement option in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent mobile and broadband connections. Early viewing is recommended for buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in apartment with outside space close to Chester's amenities and canal walks.
