Dee House, Georgian office building in Cheshire West and Chester, England.
The Grade II listed structure features symmetrical proportions, classical detailing, and retains its original 18th-century elements including the main entrance hall and staircase.
Built around 1730 for James Comberbach, Mayor of Chester, the building received extensions by architect Edmund Kirby in 1867, adding a classroom and chapel.
The property stands on an unexcavated section of Chester Amphitheatre and underwent modifications after its acquisition by Roman Catholic nuns in 1854.
Cheshire West and Chester Council appointed CBRE in 2021 to find development partners for renovating and repurposing the currently vacant building.
The Victorian extensions reflect both the original Georgian architecture and demonstrate the revival of Roman Catholicism in 19th-century Chester.
