House on busy Queens Drive hides stunning interior

The ECHO has taken a look inside a house on one of north Liverpool's busiest main roads, which is hiding a stunning interior.

The four-bedroom, one-bathroom, semi-detached property is on Queens Drive in Walton , near Walton Hall Park and Alsop High School.

Externally, the house looks like any terrace in the area dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century. The façade includes ornate stone work, arches and two beautiful bay windows.

However, trendy charcoal double glazing has been installed, along with a lick of grey paint over the red brick, to bring it into the 21st century.

Entering through the stunning stained-glass porch, eyes are drawn down to the Versailles tile flooring and up to the decorative archways, which add to the home's period charm.

There are two reception rooms and the current owners have not shied away from putting their stamp on the place. The walls are covered in silver patterned wallpaper, quirky art work and medieval style lighting.

The open plan kitchen and dining area is high-end but homely, with slate floors contrasting with the bright shaker style cabinets. There's also a large central island with a built in cooker and bi-fold doors leading out to the garden.

The floor to ceiling foliage wall in the kitchen is another eccentric addition from the current owners, while slate tiles adorn the walls near the cabinets and in the dining space.

Upstairs there are four decent sized bedrooms, a number of which include their own statement fireplaces. One room is currently being used as a gym.

The family bathroom also oozes vintage charm, with floor to ceiling tiles in shades of bronzes, creams and browns alongside a standalone claw foot bath on a raised platform with a huge walk in shower.

The outside space is paved and compact, but has been paid due care and attention with a make shift 'Tiki' bar, a covered seating area and a wood-fired pizza oven.

The house is on the market with estate agents Logic for £245,000.

Average house sale prices in the L4 postcode were £107,228 over the last year, up 7% on the previous year and a 23% jump on the 2007 peak of £87,064.
