This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offers a clear entry point to Chester’s property market, sold freehold and chain-free. The layout delivers separate lounge and dining rooms plus a rear kitchen, giving more flexible living space than many starter homes nearby.
The house would benefit from a programme of modernization — cosmetic and potentially mechanical upgrades are likely — which creates scope to add value. The plot is very small and outdoor space is limited; parking is on-street only. These are practical trade-offs for the central location and purchase price.
Positioned about a ten-minute walk from the city centre, the home sits close to shops, buses and other local amenities. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, which suits remote working and young professionals. Nearby schools include highly regarded independent and ‘Good’-rated state schools.
For a first-time buyer this property represents an affordable home to personalise. For an investor, the combination of location, two separate reception rooms and tenant demand in cosmopolitan student and professional neighbourhoods presents straightforward rental potential once modernised.
