Large period home with major renovation potential beside Chester’s city walls.
Grade II Listed Georgian townhouse over four storeys (including cellar)
A substantial Grade II Listed Georgian townhouse arranged over cellar, ground and two upper floors, located within Chester’s city walls and conservation area. High ceilings, original sash windows, marble fireplaces, panelling and decorative mouldings provide strong period character and genuine scope for sensitive restoration. The property includes a cellar, a roof terrace and residents’ permit street parking nearby.
The house is offered in need of comprehensive modernisation: the compact kitchen shows water damage and peeling finishes, internal areas require updating, and the building’s listed status will restrict changes and complicate works. Heating is mains gas with boiler and radiators; walls are solid brick with likely no insulation, so thermal upgrades will be needed alongside any refurbishment.
This large multi‑storey layout (approx. 2,643 sq ft) suits buyers aiming to create a high‑value city centre family home, a sympathetic rental conversion, or a specialist refurbishment project. Important safety note: prospective purchasers must not use the rear kitchen stairs or the roof terrace when viewing. EPC D and small external plot size reflect the property's age and central location.
Positioned steps from central amenities, strong local schools and public transport, the house offers long‑term upside after renovation. However, high local crime statistics, conservation constraints and the listed status mean budget realistic professional surveys, listed building consent planning and secure workmanship for a successful project.
