Stylish £650k Chester home may look even better on the inside

The house on Appleton Road in Upton, Chester, was constructed in the 1970s and has recently undergone a significant renovation, transforming it into a fabulous, light filled, family home. Something that may not be apparent when looking at its smart but unassuming exterior.

Floor to ceiling windows flood the inside of the building with natural light, complementing the neutral tones of the decor and elevating statement rugs, light fittings and furniture.

Externally, the house maintains its traditional references, blending them with custom designed features such as double-glazed oak spring doors and Siberian larch cladding.

Entering the home, a bright hallway leads to a spacious and stylish living room and an open plan kitchen and dining room. A contemporary fitted kitchen with white units and contrasting worktops is softened by wooden seats and colourful mid century kitchenware. A shower room with wc and wash hand basin completes the accommodation on the ground floor.

The large back garden, visible from the stunning kitchen/dining room space, features a patio with accompanying pergola and a lush lawn with privacy provided by a rear hedge.

On the first floor are four bedrooms and a family bathroom which has a bath and free-standing shower. The windows in bedroom 4 have been replaced with floor to ceiling windows mirroring those in the living room below.

The impressive property is currently on the market for £650,000 with estate agents Savills.

Pauline Kay, property agent at Savills in Chester, and who is handling the sale, says: "This is a wonderful example of how to take a 1970s house and create a really contemporary home. This is a real testament to the owners’ vision and the property has a genuine wow factor about it."
