A discreet ground-floor snug offers a peaceful retreat, while the expansive kitchen diner at the rear of the home provides a superb social hub with a large dining table capable of seating all guests in comfort.

The heart of the home is the bright and spacious kitchen diner, fully equipped for the culinary-minded guest. Facilities include double ovens, a large ceramic hob, dishwasher, American-style fridge freezer, and an extensive range of storage and preparation space.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The expansive rear garden offers an idyllic setting for private entertaining, complemented by two distinguished patio areas furnished with high-quality outdoor seating. The impressive heated swimming pool, with a depth of up to eight feet, is ideal for keen swimmers, while the generous lawn provides space for outdoor sports and relaxation. The first-floor terrace accessed from the principal bedroom offers a tranquil spot to unwind away from the crowds. To the front, a secure gated driveway provides ample off-road parking for up to ten vehicles along with exterior fitted CCTV.

The location is truly second to none, offering immediate access to Royal Birkdale Golf Club, a short walk to Southport's sand dune nature reserves, and easy access to Birkdale Village with its excellent selection of restaurants, bars, and transport links by road and rail.
