Watergate Street, Chester

A conversion of a beautiful four storey Georgian townhouse, to 8 luxury apartments.

Moments from Chester Racecourse and a short walk into the city centre, with its vast array of businesses and vibrant hospitality sector, this represents a tremendous opportunity for redevelopment.

Our primary strategy is to rent out the finished apartments, or use them as serviced accommodation – something that given the location would be extremely successful. 

Although in need of refurbishment, Watergate Street is already laid out in such a way that conversion into these apartments is easy to visualise and bring to fruition, with movement of stud walls and some cosmetic enhancements.

* Warning: Capital at risk. The value of your investments can go down as well as up, so you could get back less than you invested. Suitable for sophisticated investors. *
