About
A rare opportunity to acquire one of Chester’s finest landmark buildings, beautifully restored to provide three exceptional apartments whilst offering remarkable flexibility for investors, owner-occupiers and those seeking a truly unique city centre asset.
Occupying an enviable position within Chester’s iconic historic Rows, CH1 Boutique Stays presents an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire an entire Grade II Listed building in one of the city’s most prestigious locations.
Beautifully restored and thoughtfully reimagined, this handsome period property combines timeless architectural character with exceptional contemporary design to create three individually appointed luxury apartments, all finished to an exacting standard following a significant programme of investment.
Whether you’re looking to continue the successful CH1 Boutique Stays operation, create three individual long-term rental investments, occupy one apartment whilst generating income from the remaining accommodation, or explore the potential to reconfigure the building back into one exceptional landmark residence (subject to any necessary consents), opportunities offering this level of quality, flexibility and location seldom become available.
The current owners have invested heavily in creating a property that is every bit as practical as it is beautiful.
Beyond the striking interiors, the building has been intelligently configured with integrated smart technology throughout, allowing remote management of lighting, heating, access control and security.
Each apartment benefits from an intelligent guest entry system whereby utilities activate automatically upon arrival, helping minimise unnecessary energy consumption whilst creating a seamless user experience.
Combined with the comprehensive alarm system and modern infrastructure, the property provides an outstanding turnkey opportunity for a variety of ownership models.
Interior designers have carefully curated every apartment, blending period charm with contemporary luxury. Throughout the building, the attention to detail is immediately apparent.
Bespoke solid timber kitchens are complemented by quartz worktops, handcrafted Belfast sinks with Italian fittings, premium integrated appliances, natural oak flooring, cast iron radiators, bespoke fitted furniture and carefully selected lighting, creating elegant spaces that feel both luxurious and welcoming.
The level of craftsmanship and investment is evident at every turn.
Occupying the first floor, the impressive Roman Suite enjoys two large sash windows overlooking vibrant Bridge Street and the surrounding Georgian architecture, flooding the open-plan living space with natural light.
The bespoke kitchen has been handcrafted from solid timber and features quartz worktops, a generous central island, integrated dishwasher, wine refrigerator, Belfast sink with handcrafted Italian taps, a double-width range cooker with triple oven and an abundance of storage, all flowing effortlessly into the spacious living and dining area centred around an attractive Georgian fireplace.
The principal bedroom continues the same exceptional standard, featuring bespoke fitted wardrobes, a dressing area and an elegant open-plan ensuite complete with a Roman bath, marble wash basin and quality sanitaryware.
An additional internal room, currently utilised as a sleeping area, provides valuable flexibility for guests or alternative uses, whilst a beautifully appointed separate bathroom serves the remainder of the apartment.
Positioned on the second floor are the Queen Suite and Deva Suite, two beautifully designed one-bedroom apartments, each offering stylish open-plan living and finished to the same uncompromising specification found throughout the building.
Bespoke handcrafted kitchens, quartz worktops, integrated appliances, generous bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and dressing areas, together with beautifully finished bathrooms featuring cast iron radiators, bespoke vanity units and carefully selected tiling, ensure complete consistency in quality across all three apartments.
The refurbishment extends well beyond cosmetic improvements.
The property has benefited from extensive upgrading, including a new roof, replacement windows and comprehensive renovation throughout, creating a building that successfully blends the character of a historic Chester landmark with the convenience, efficiency and reassurance of modern construction and technology.
Location is, of course, one of the property’s defining features.
Positioned on historic Bridge Street within Chester’s internationally recognised Rows, residents and guests are moments from independent cafés, award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping, the Cathedral, Roman Walls and Chester Racecourse, whilst the railway station is also within comfortable walking distance.
Few addresses within the city offer such immediate access to everything Chester has to offer.
Currently operating as the successful CH1 Boutique Stays, the property represents an outstanding income-producing asset from day one. However, one of its greatest strengths is its versatility.
Continue operating the established hospitality business, create three independent long-term rental apartments, occupy part of the building whilst generating additional income, or, subject to any necessary permissions, restore the property into one magnificent city centre home.
Few buildings offer this combination of location, craftsmanship, character and flexibility, making this an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a true Chester landmark.
Location Occupying an enviable position on Bridge Street within Chester’s iconic historic Rows, few locations offer quite the same blend of heritage, convenience and lifestyle.
Surrounded by independent cafés, award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping and some of the city’s most celebrated landmarks, including Chester Cathedral, the Roman Walls and the Racecourse, everything the city has to offer is quite literally on your doorstep.
Chester Railway Station is also within comfortable walking distance, providing excellent connections to Liverpool, Manchester and London, making this one of the city’s most desirable and accessible addresses.
