A new property has come on the market in Merseyside, that wouldn’t look out of place on the set of Bridgerton.
The grand Grade II listed villa, on Allport Road, Bromborough, is up for sale with a mystery price tag. The sale includes the main residence but also a whopping 2.1 acres of ground, a former stable block and paddock.
Built around the 1850s, around the same time when the hit Netflix series is set, the property is filled with plenty of original Victorian features throughout. It was originally built as a house but has since been used as offices and flat accommodation.
