Barrel Well House, a Grade II listed Georgian home dating to around 1840 on the River Dee in Boughton near Chester, has gone on the market with a guide price of £2.2m. The five-bedroom property is being marketed by Savills, Chester. The listing describes a residence “tucked quietly away” on a historic lane, set on a southerly slope overlooking the river and filled with natural light.

The house includes private mooring rights for trips upstream and leisure rides into Chester. Outdoor space includes a riverside terrace with a covered canopy and stone steps leading to lawns.
