'Eye-catching' home down a winding country road

An "eye-catching" home that's located down a winding, country road, has been put on the market.

The four bedroom detached property has recently been completely renovated, with the current owners "transforming" the home. When buying the home four years ago, the owners described it as being in "need of extensive modernisation."

Now they have completed a full redesign on the home, on Higher Lane, Rainford, so that is reflects a more contemporary lifestyle. Highlights include a glazed extension overlooking the garden, a new fully integrated kitchen and landscaped gardens.

The Regan and Hallworth listing reads: "Just four years ago this was a rather tired property in need of extensive modernisation, however the current owners saw its full potential and set about transforming the home into what we see today. It has been extensively renovated and individually designed to provide luxuriously appointed and versatile living space perfected for the contemporary lifestyles we live today.

"Absolutely brimming with instant kerb appeal the whole house was stripped and extensively upgraded and redesigned to create a grand design style home that makes the most of the stunning views it enjoys to the front. All the windows and doors inside and outside have been replaced, the house was rewired and an all new central heating system installed with feature cast iron reclaimed radiators in most of the rooms."
