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.

The Apartment

Apartment Eight extends to approximately 527 sq ft (48.9 sq m) and offers a distinctive duplex layout rarely found within Chester's apartment market.

The entrance opens into a welcoming hallway leading through to a remarkable open-plan living space where the scale and character of the original building immediately become apparent. Soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed black steel arches provide a striking architectural focal point, complemented by original leaded windows which flood the apartment with natural light throughout the day.

The contemporary kitchen has been thoughtfully integrated into the space and features shaker-style cabinetry, high-quality wood-effect worktops, an integrated oven and hob, and excellent preparation space, creating a practical yet elegant setting for everyday living and entertaining. Purchasers have the flexibility to install their own white goods to suit their individual requirements.

A stylish shower room has been finished with large-format porcelain tiling, contemporary sanitaryware, chrome brassware and bespoke oak shelving, delivering a clean and sophisticated finish.

A staircase rises to the mezzanine bedroom, overlooking the principal living area below. The bedroom offers a distinctive loft-style ambience whilst maintaining excellent proportions and useful eaves storage, creating a peaceful retreat separated from the main living accommodation.

Throughout the apartment, solid ash flooring sourced from the Eaton Estate and carefully retained period detailing combine to create a home of genuine individuality, seamlessly blending heritage character with contemporary design.

Please note: the landlord progresses the tenancy and manages the property themselves, this means the letting process will vary from our standard process.
