Auction Guide – What the Prices Mean
Starting Bid – This is the figure shown to attract interest and get bidding underway. Think of it as the “opening bid” at an auction house.
Guide Price – This is an indication of the seller’s minimum expectation. It is set below the reserve to encourage competitive bidding. The guide price may change as we get closer to the auction.
Reserve Price – This is the minimum price the property can be sold for. It is agreed with the seller and is legally binding. The auctioneer cannot sell the property for less than this amount.
Please note: The guide price and starting bid are not valuations. They are marketing tools designed to create interest. The final reserve is usually set within a percentage of the guide price and will be confirmed no later than 3 working days before the auction.

A fully renovated four-bedroom detached family home situated in a quiet cul-de-sac on the outskirts of Chester, offered with vacant possession. The property has been modernised throughout, making it ready to move into, let out, or reconfigure for higher-yielding investment.
The accommodation comprises entrance hall, spacious lounge with log burner, open-plan kitchen/dining room with French doors to the rear garden, downstairs WC, four bedrooms including master with en-suite, and a modern family bathroom. Outside there is a landscaped garden, driveway and garage.
Recent works include a new gas central heating system, rewiring, brand new kitchen and bathrooms, full redecoration and new flooring throughout.
An ideal family home close to Elton Primary School and within easy reach of Helsby High, local shops and amenities, and commuter routes into Chester, Liverpool and Manchester.
Estimated rental potential of £1,750pcm, equating to a gross yield of c.7.6% at the guide price. Family demand is consistent, supported by proximity to major employers, schools and transport.
With four double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a downstairs WC, the property could be adapted for professional or medical sharers. Four rooms let at c.£500pcm could generate £2,000pcm. With conversion potential (e.g. garage), a five-bed licensed HMO could gross around £2,500pcm.
