£ 450,000 OIRO Freehold
0.25 acres
Overview
PRIME DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY
23 Liverpool Road presents an exceptional and rare opportunity to acquire a prominent freehold site in one of Chester's most sought-after and strategically connected locations. Offering significant redevelopment potential (subject to the necessary planning consents), the property is suited to a wide range of future uses including residential, commercial or mixed use.
The property comprises a substantial three-storey detached Victorian villa of red brick construction set beneath a pitched slate roof with timber sash windows. Occupying a site of approximately 0.25 acres, the building has not been formally measured and therefore no floor area (sq ft) is currently available.
Historically, the site operated as a petrol filling station with an associated yard area. The site has been remediated from its previous use. The upper floors of the building provide two large self-contained residential apartments with separate access. A large rear yard / car park offers substantial parking and potential for reconfiguration or redevelopment.
The property has been vacant for several years and is now in a condition requiring comprehensive refurbishment throughout. The second-floor apartment is accessed via an external staircase located within the adjoining property (No.24) and benefits from a right of way.
No. 24 Liverpool Road also has a right of way for vehicle access through the property.
The property's generous plot, prominent frontage and proximity to key destinations enhance its attractiveness to developers, investors and owners-occupiers alike.
