Property description & features

  • Tenure: Leasehold
  • G/F Retirement Apartment
  • Three Bedrooms
  • Tastefully Presented
  • Communal Parking Spaces
  • Sought-After Complex
  • EPC Rating C
A very tastefully modernised ground floor three bedroom early 1990s retirement apartment, with numerous contemporary enhancements, refitted shower room, refitted kitchen, and a sought-after as well as very convenient location just over the Old Dee Bridge.

One of the larger apartments within this popular development, this property punches above its weight generally within the retirement apartment market locally, having three rather than two bedrooms, as well as a particularly high standard of modernisation and refurbishment which has been carried out by the present owner. Queens Park House itself is a well-known retirement complex for those of 55 years and above, and as well as being within walking distance of the beautiful riverside Groves and the historic Roman city of Chester, it is within easy reach of the Chester Business Park, the Broughton Retail Park, and the wider north west road communications network via nearby junctions with the A483 and A55 expressways. Queens Park House as a whole also has the distinct benefits of a communal lounge, kitchen and laundry room, and access to two communal guest suites, as well as communal permit controlled parking spaces, and a part-time house manager. The present owner has enhanced this superb apartment over the last five years with numerous improvements including refitted shower room and kitchen, an in-line electric hot water heating system, electric radiators; and the property also benefits from double glazed windows, a circuit breaker controlled electrical system, connections to mains water, electricity and drainage, and the following accommodation which is described in detail below.
