Summary - 60 Northgate Studios, Trafford Street CH1 3GW
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ideal buy-to-let in heart of Chester, minutes from station and nightlife.
Walking distance to city centre and railway station
A compact, purpose-built studio offered as a straightforward buy-to-let in central Chester. The apartment is small (356 sq ft) and finished to a modern standard, with a large picture window that brings in city views and natural light. Communal facilities include study areas, social spaces and a cinema room, supporting strong appeal to students and short-term tenants.
This unit suits investors seeking a hands-off rental: the building is managed for student accommodation and benefits from proximity to the train station, bus stops, shops, bars and the university scene. The studio has an integrated kitchen and shower room and is ready for immediate letting without major refurbishment.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and uses electric room heaters (electricity-fuelled heating), which can mean higher running costs for tenants compared with gas central heating. The wider area is classified as deprived with a local profile of cosmopolitan student neighbourhoods, which supports steady student demand but may limit upward price pressure outside that market.
Overall this is a clear, low-effort income opportunity for a buy-to-let buyer targeting the student market. It offers modern presentation and communal amenities but is small and relies on electric heating and leasehold arrangements—factors to weigh against the rental yield and management model.
