Four listed Victorian townhouses in the West End were opened into serviced apartments with kitchens and no restaurant of their own. Lee Boyd finished the conversion in July 2010, keeping the cornices and adding basement rooms for daylight. The doors are 9 Chester Street and 9 Rothesay Place, near St Mary's Cathedral, and a smaller set of apartments had already been letting since 2003.
