Description
The Development
Following the meticulous redevelopment of the former St Mary's School, 2 Overleigh Road presents an exclusive collection of just nine individually designed apartments, each offering its own distinctive layout whilst celebrating the heritage of this iconic building.
The sensitive conversion has retained many original architectural features, including vaulted ceilings, exposed structural beams, impressive window openings and period detailing, carefully combined with high-quality contemporary finishes throughout.
Every apartment benefits from an allocated parking space with EV charging capability, offering modern convenience within one of Chester's most sought-after residential locations.
The result is a boutique development that successfully blends history, character and modern living in a way rarely available within the city.
Apartment Seven
Extending to approximately 1,249 sq ft (116 sq m), Apartment Seven has been designed to maximise both space and natural light, creating an impressive home equally suited to professional couples, downsizers or those seeking luxury apartment living within walking distance of Chester city centre.
The welcoming entrance hall leads into a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and living space that forms the heart of the apartment. Large original windows flood the room with natural light, whilst the generous proportions allow for clearly defined seating and dining areas without compromising the sense of openness.
The bespoke contemporary kitchen has been finished to an exceptional standard, featuring striking navy shaker-style cabinetry, solid oak worktops and a substantial central island incorporating a breakfast bar, creating a natural focal point for both everyday living and entertaining. Integrated appliances, feature pendant lighting and a separate utility room further enhance the practicality of the space.
The principal bedroom is generously proportioned and benefits from a beautifully appointed en suite shower room, creating a private and luxurious retreat. A second spacious double bedroom is served by an equally impressive contemporary shower room, making the apartment ideal for guests, sharers or those requiring additional flexibility for home working.
Both shower rooms have been impeccably appointed with elegant porcelain tiling, premium sanitaryware, sleek contemporary brassware and bespoke oak shelving, delivering a refined finish that mirrors the exceptional quality found throughout the apartment.
Natural oak flooring flows seamlessly through the principal living accommodation, while soft carpeting provides warmth and comfort within both bedrooms. Original leaded windows and carefully retained architectural detailing ensure the apartment maintains the character and heritage synonymous with the building.
Please note: the landlord progresses the tenancy and manages the property themselves, this means the letting process will vary from our standard process.
