Inside the Mersey mansion on sale for £1.25m

A massive house on a exclusive Merseyside road has been placed on the market with a hefty price tag.

The huge five-bedroom, three-bathroom residence on Birchmere in Heswall spans more than 3,200 sq ft on a 0.5-acre plot. The private dead-end road is tucked away, but not too far from the many amenities nearby.

Guests are welcomed through an oversized front door, setting the grand tone for the interior. The spacious entrance hall with a central staircase leads off to a study, drawing room, dining room and another smaller hallway that takes you to the utility room and through to the kitchen.

The modern kitchen looks like something from an interiors magazine, with a double feature extractor fan drawing the eyes up from the large central island. The room, set within a new extension, is light and airy thanks to a double sky light and bi-fold doors leading to the garden.

Off here is a charming orangery with tiled floors and ample space to dine and relax as a family. The high ceilings and bare brick give the room and a grand feeling, while the many windows allow you to take in the rich green surroundings.

Outside is a massive paved patio and the garden is peppered with mature trees and shrubs to give an element of privacy.

The house boasts five decent sized bedrooms, two of which are en-suite, with a large family bathroom completing the first floor. The master has ample storage space thanks to mirrored built in wardrobes, with his and hers sinks in the en-suite adding a touch of extra luxury.

The owners have really put their stamp on the upstairs living space, with each room individually decorated in quirky wallpaper or standout colours.

The house is on the market with Karl Tatler Estate Agents, which said it is "a truly exceptional family residence". Offers in excess of £1.25m are being sought. Houses don't go on sales on Birchmere often - the last was sold in 2018 for £780,000.

Property prices in Heswall are on the up; last year they had an overall selling price of £413,224, 10% higher than the previous year. Detached homes went for an average of £620,795.
