- On-street parking only; no private off-street parking

Set on prestigious Grosvenor Place in central Chester, this five-bedroom mid-terrace townhouse blends Georgian character with a recently updated contemporary kitchen. Arranged over four levels plus a cellar, the house offers versatile accommodation suitable for a family, premium short-stay let, or high-yield rental. Bright rooms and period sash windows retain historic charm while a high, modern kitchen provides a social hub.
The location is the principal asset: steps from Chester’s shopping streets, restaurants, cathedral and railway station, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local schools include highly regarded independent and well-rated state options, making the area appealing for professional households and visitor-driven lets.
Buyers should note material negatives openly: the property sits in a very small plot with on-street parking only, and the neighbourhood records very high crime levels and above-average council tax. The building’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and the EPC is D, so energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. The wider area shows higher deprivation indices, which may affect rental yields and long-term capital growth compared with more affluent suburbs.
Overall, this townhouse offers rare central Chester accommodation with clear upside for an owner-occupier seeking city living or an investor prepared to manage local-area challenges and invest in insulation and security improvements to enhance returns.
