This detached four-bedroom family home in Upton offers comfortable, well-proportioned living across two floors, positioned a short drive from Chester city centre. The ground floor provides an L-shaped living/dining room, a modern kitchen with breakfast area, a converted utility for storage, and a versatile ground-floor bedroom that works well as a home office. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a single family bathroom.
Outdoor space is a clear asset: a block-paved driveway leads to a single garage and there is a decent front garden plus a secluded rear garden with a timber deck directly off the house — ideal for outdoor entertaining and family play. The rear plot borders Upton High School grounds, giving a private feel while keeping the property convenient to local schools and amenities.
Practical details include mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and a D EPC rating. The house was constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s and is in average condition for its age; maintenance or updating in places should be expected. There is one family bathroom and toilets on the ground floor, which may be limiting for larger households.
This home will suit families seeking space near good schools and easy access to Chester, or buyers looking for a comfortable detached house with scope to update. Be aware of above-average council tax and the property’s EPC and older glazing when budgeting for running costs and potential improvement work.
