Summary - 39 WATERS EDGE CHESTER CH1 4JQ
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Compact two-bedroom canalside home ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
No onward chain — ready to move in
This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment at Waters Edge offers straightforward city-centre living with no onward chain and immediate move-in readiness. The corner position provides dual aspect light and French doors opening to the outside, while the principal bedroom includes an en-suite for practical daily living. Allocated gated parking and a modern canalside location add convenience and appeal.
The layout is efficient: open-plan kitchen, living and dining create a sociable heart, with a second double bedroom and separate bathroom off the entrance hall. At about 633 sq ft the internal footprint is small-to-average for a two-bedroom apartment — easy to maintain but limited for larger furniture or extensive storage. The development feels contemporary and low-maintenance, with communal external space kept tidy.
This property suits first-time buyers seeking a compact city base or investors targeting strong rental demand from nearby students and professionals. Note the flat is leasehold with 125 years remaining — a standard urban arrangement but important for mortgage or resale checks. Broadband speeds are average and local deprivation indicators are higher than some nearby neighbourhoods, which may influence long-term growth expectations.
Practical points: there is no flood risk, crime levels are low and mobile signal is excellent. Council tax banding is currently to be confirmed. Overall, this is a convenient, ready-to-occupy canalside apartment that balances immediate usability with clear rental potential, while requiring buyers to accept a modest internal size and leasehold tenure.
