Summary - 7 BOUVERIE STREET CHESTER CH1 4HF
5 bed 1 bath Terraced
Excellent high-yield opportunity close to university and city amenities.
Five double bedrooms ideal for high-occupancy rental
Situated in a lively, centrally placed Chester neighbourhood popular with students and young professionals, this five-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offers clear investment potential. The property is exempt from a mandatory HMO licence and sits within easy walking distance of the University of Chester, city centre amenities and frequent transport links — providing strong, repeat tenant demand.
Internally the layout includes five double bedrooms, a communal living room and kitchen/dining area, plus a downstairs WC and separate shower room. The solid brick Victorian build retains period character but requires cosmetic updating and some renovation to modernise bathrooms, kitchen and internal decoration. There is no confirmed insulation in the walls; buyers should budget for thermal improvements and possible electrical or heating upgrades.
For investors, projected yields are strong (advertised in excess of 10% pa before works) if refurbished and let to the local market. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and low local crime, but the small plot and mid-terrace form mean there is little or no external amenity space.
This is a chain-free freehold suited to a buyer prepared to undertake renovation work to unlock rental value. Its compact rooms and single bathroom limit immediate appeal for owner-occupiers seeking spacious family living, but make it well-matched to a professional or student rental model.
