Bowling Green Court is run by owners, for owners and comprises forty-nine spacious one and two bedroom apartments. Amenities include owners' lounge, on-site dining, guest suite, landscaped gardens, and owners' parking. The Court, with 24-hour on-site staff, offers owners the opportunity of retaining independence within an active social community. Bowling Green Court is situated just 0.2 miles from a large Tesco and Chester town centre, boasting ample amenities is less that half a mile away.

Bowling Green Court is a very well-established community of over 60-year-olds living independent, happy and supported lives in our spacious, purpose-built 2-bed apartments.

Most overlook one of our two peaceful gardens or the bowling green itself: every apartment has 2 aspects. There is also car parking space within this secure gated city-centre site. All the facilities of central Chester are less than 15mins walk away but unless you know where to look, you might not find us,

Run by our own management company, we don't have huge marketing budgets or glossy brochures, and no ground rent is payable to our freeholder (Retirement Security Ltd). Instead, our monthly service charge pays for our fabulous staff team (one of them is on site 24/7) and the upkeep of our facilities. These include an owner's lounge, guest suite, a dining room and a cosy bistro. Owners organise a wide range of social activities both regular and ad hoc - you can get involved as much or as little as suits you.

All the 49 apartments are fully accessible to wheelchairs and electric scooters with 3 lifts on site, wide walkways and thoughtful design within the apartments.

We are CQC registered and can offer in-house personal care if and when required.

It is important to note that a significant proportion of the Service Charge relates to items which the prospective purchaser is responsible for in their present home, such as building insurance, building maintenance, gardening, and domestic help. Many purchasers are also eligible for Attendance Allowance at £72.65 or £108.55 a week, which is neither means-tested or taxable and advice on this subject is available to anyone making an enquiry.

The lease provides that a transfer premium is payable to Retirement Security on resale of a property. The maximum premium payable is 3% of the sale price depending on the length of time an Owner has lived at the property. Further information is available from the Court Manager.
COUNCIL TAXA payment made to your local authority in order to pay for local services like schools, libraries, and refuse collection. The amount you pay depends on the value of the property.Read more about council Tax in our glossary page.
