Flat 4, Clifton House, Dee Banks

Wake up to elevated, panoramic views over the River Dee, The Meadows and Chester's ancient skyline at Clifton House, Dee Banks. A home with prestige and panache, apartments at Clifton House rarely grace the market, making this rare opportunity to purchase a slice of riverside living all the more enticing.

The fresh white, period design of Clifton House is set before lush green lawn, part of the communal gardens to the front, well maintained by the resident-run management committee. Leave your car in the communal parking area to the rear, where there are two allocated spaces, before making your way up a small flight of steps to the sheltered first floor entrance.

Sense the space instantly as the long entrance hall leads ahead. Immediately on the left is the house bathroom, furnished with bath containing overhead shower, wash basin and WC.

Continuing along the entrance hallway, next on the left discover the second bedroom. A comfortable double, with fitted wardrobes, this bedroom enjoys a quiet position nestled to the rear of the building.

Wine and dine in the spacious dining-kitchen next door, with space for a good-sized dining table and sideboard. Enjoy croissants and jam at the breakfast bar, with leafy views out to the rear. Plenty of storage is available in the cabinetry alongside integrated appliances including a dishwasher, cooker and extractor hood.

Returning to the entrance hallway, note the easy, neutral décor throughout, creating a light and airy vibe. Plenty of storage is available in a deep closet along the hallway before arriving at the main living room, ahead and on the left.

Through the broad and bountiful bay window admire the stunning views, stretching from St Paul's Church in Boughton across Deva Terrace and past the cathedral towards the town hall, with Moel Famau, Hope Mountain and the Welsh mountains rising up in the distance to the left. Watch the world go by, with paddleboarders scudding across the river, dogwalkers enjoying the freedom of The Meadows below and the hustle and bustle of Chester life on your doorstep. Note the original Clifton House stained-glass detailing in the upper panes of the windows.

An open fireplace could easily be brought into the modern age for cosy winter evenings snuggled up on the sofa as the sun sets over the river. Such a spacious and serene setting, a large glass-fronted bookcase also provides ample storage for your library.

Also framing fantastic views out over the River Dee is the main bedroom next door. Two large sash windows provide perfect views out over The Meadows, the city skyline and out to the Welsh hills. A spacious double, it is also served by an ensuite bathroom, with shower, wash basin and WC.
