4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

OVERVIEW Rarely does such an attractive period property in a unique riverside setting at Handbridge become available to purchase and with such spacious accommodation!

This three-bedroom, two-bathroom home benefits from a range of attractive features throughout such as cottage-style windows with brick arch lintels and stone sills, solid wood doors with antique-style black wrought iron work and exposed brick fireplaces. Add to that the private outside space where your background noise is not the sounds of the city but the relaxing gentle roar of Chester's River Dee as it passes over the weir and, well, you can see why homes like these do not come onto the market every day!

The attractive brick façade of this home is guaranteed to create an instant first impression each and every time you arrive home. Opening the solid timber front door, you will find yourself in a bright entry hall with a charming exposed brick fireplace creating a feeling of cosiness with the room large enough to accommodate further seating or perhaps used as a study with a desk and workstation?

Moving through into the triple-aspect living room and, whether it is the French doors to the courtyard garden, exposed brick fireplace or the solid timber staircase to the first floor accommodation, we are certain you will be impressed by this spacious room ideal for entertaining guests! The room is tastefully finished in neutral hues with fitted carpet and numerous wall lights creating a tranquil and cosy space. A small open lobby has a door with the downstairs cloakroom w/c off and a further door to the breakfast kitchen beyond.

At the rear of the property, you will next find the surprisingly large farmhouse-style kitchen. Featuring a fitted kitchen comprising shaker-style units, butcher-block worktops and a character Belfast-style sink; there is an integrated dishwasher, fridge/freezer and further space for a freestanding range cooker and washing machine. Finished with tiled splashbacks and a tiled floor; the room enjoys plenty of natural light with a window to the rear and cottage-style half-glazed back door to the courtyard garden.

Moving to the first-floor landing and you will find solid timber doors with matching antique-style black wrought iron works to all the principal rooms on this floor.

At the front of the property enjoying elevated panoramic views over the River Dee weir are two double bedrooms. Both bedrooms easily accommodate double beds with further space for freestanding furniture, feature sealed fireplace alcoves, and are perfect places to relax and enjoy the stunning views over the River Dee.

The bathroom is tastefully fitted with a matching white suite and currently has a large open-plan dressing room off with fitted wardrobes. The suite comprises a deep panelled bath with chrome shower attachments, pedestal hand wash basin and low-level w/c. The chrome heated towel rail complements the matching chrome fixtures of the hand wash basin and bath. There is a row of mirrored medicine cabinets offering plenty of natural storage and maximising the feeling of space. This part of the room is finished with a ceramic tiled floor.

Beyond is the dressing room which is fitted with large wardrobes across one wall with space for further storage if desired, is finished with fitted carpet, and has a separate window to the rear aspect ensuring plenty of natural light. There is potential here to create a separate fourth bedroom simply by closing off the family bathroom (either by a solid wall or a lockable door for 'Jack & Jill' style access) and creating a new bedroom entry off the first-floor landing to the dressing room itself.

Moving through to the master suite and this is a split-level suite over two floors with the ensuite shower room on the first floor and a turning staircase to the master bedroom on the second floor. The ensuite features a three piece suite comprising self-contained shower cubicle, pedestal wash hand basin and low level w/c. The master bedroom above, which comprises the whole of the second floor, features a vaulted timber-panelled ceiling, Velux skylights and exposed feature chimney breast. A spacious, bright and tranquil space to escape to – you may find you do not even want to leave!

The private rear garden is low maintenance and finished in a courtyard-style mainly laid to paving and creating an excellent outside entertainment space with tall fencing and a gate to the parking area beyond. Further on-street parking can be obtained by application for resident's parking passes with the option to also acquire visitor day passes for parking from Cheshire West and Chester Council.

We think this home is a stunning example of spectacular location, spacious accommodation and stylish historic period features. Viewing is highly recommended without delay because, simply, when will another home like this become available again? 

THE HANDBRIDGE LIFESTYLE Your new home could be located in what might be Chester's best suburb which is just across the old River Dee Bridge from Chester City Centre. Handbridge has its own range of local amenities including a variety of shops, recently refurbished pubs, delicatessen, post office, filling station and general store. There is also a doctors' surgery, filling station, good schools and a further education College.

Our wonderful City is a pleasant ten minute walk taking in the beautiful river crossing where there is so much more! The University is also within walking distance.

For summer evening and daytime walks, jogging, exercising the dog, a picnic or just relaxing - there is plenty of space on the picturesque riverbanks at Handbridge and much more on the banks of The Meadows.

There is easy access to Chester Business Park, the Nuffield health club, Chester and Bache railway stations and the main road and motorway networks.

Handbridge is the place to be and distinct period homes are in short supply so viewing without delay is advised!
