Property Description

22 City Walls dates back to approximately 1790 yet was brought into the 21st century by the current owners to provide the ultimate in luxury living, winning a prestigious Civic Trust Award for its renovation. The meticulous attention to detail is apparent in every feature, both internally and externally.

Real consideration has been given to all elements in this magnificent home, from the layout of the individually designed bedrooms, to the changing heights in the garden which mirror that of the River Dee. Views from the south-facing frontage of the house have been described as "Chester's Royal Box", unique as they are from a Georgian house located atop the ancient walls. With 22 City Walls, you would be amongst the rare elite of Chester's tranquil riverside property owners.

The property has accommodation arranged over three floors and the added benefit of a self-contained one-bedroom apartment on the lower ground floor.

No expense was spared during the remodelling of the property some 6 years ago: At this time, all the windows were replaced, underfloor heating was put in all of the en-suite bathrooms, and the property was beautifully redecorated throughout. There are also 2 fully working fireplaces, and 2 log burners within the property.

This beautiful house is currently used as a successful 5* Boutique Guest House, but would, due to the flexibility of the room layout, convert easily back to a wonderful family home.

The property is in an excellent location within the City Walls, only minutes' walk from the City centre and a few minutes from Chester Race Course.

Chester offers a comprehensive array of shops and facilities. Recreational activities include racing at the Roodee Racecourse, golf courses, as well as rowing, sailing and canoeing on the River Dee.

There is a good local choice of state and private schools, including Boughton Heath Primary School and the highly regarded King's and Queen's Schools. The property is well placed for commuting to the commercial centres of the North West, and Chester Station offers a direct line service to London Euston, within 2 hours.

At the front of the house are south facing gardens with stunning views over the river, enclosed by a brick wall, and paved for ease of maintenance. There is an array of mature trees including a weeping ash, cherry tree, laburnum and a rowan.

The main entrance to the property is on the southern elevation. To the rear of the property is a large forecourt with ample parking for numerous vehicles. There are two separate staircases from the rear, one leading to the self-contained apartment and the other directly onto the terraced garden.
