Property Oracle says ..
1 White Friars is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom detached property located in the desirable Chester City & The Garden Quarter. The property benefits from a convenient location, being within close proximity to Chester Train Station (1.58km) and several highly-rated schools such as Queen’s Park High School (0.78km). The area is known for its attractive blend of historical architecture and modern amenities. The property itself is a striking example of period architecture, showcasing beautiful timber framing and original features. The images reveal a well-maintained interior, although some aspects might benefit from modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. The property includes a small, but pleasant, rear courtyard garden, providing some outdoor space. Considering the average price per square foot in the area is £293, and the list price of £575,000 for this 334 sqft property, the price appears high. However, the unique character and historical significance of the property, combined with its central Chester location, could justify a premium price compared to average properties in the area. The limited plot size of 1,721 sqft should be taken into consideration when assessing value. Nearby comparable properties show a wide range of prices, highlighting the impact of property specifics and location.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
