A new listing has come on the market in Liverpool that's being described as 'one of a kind.'
The detached house is in the 'prime' location of a private park, on North Road, in Grassendale. Despite being secluded down the exclusive leafy lane, it also benefits from being also close to the waterfront and Cressington train station.
For just shy of £1 million at £950,000, the new owner will buy the Edwardian property with five bedrooms , surrounded by it's own mature gardens. Split over two floors, there are three reception rooms and also a detached garage.
