Westbourne Road, Southport, PR8

Arnold & Phillips are pleased to present this impressive four-bedroom penthouse apartment, occupying a prime position at the very top of the exclusive Westbourne Court development along the ever-popular Westbourne Road in Birkdale, Southport.

Spanning the full width of the building, this is a home that immediately feels considered in both its layout and finish, having been fully renovated to offer a clean, contemporary living environment that still retains a sense of warmth and practicality. The scale of the accommodation is one of the first things that stands out, with a generous footprint that allows each room to breathe and function as it should, making it equally suited to those looking for long-term family living or a more refined downsize without compromise.

Approached through well-maintained communal grounds that set a tidy and welcoming first impression, the development offers private off-road parking and a secure intercom entry system, giving a sense of privacy and reassurance from the outset. From here, the experience becomes more individual, with a private lift rising directly into the apartment’s own porch area with coat and shoe storage. It’s a feature that not only adds a level of convenience day to day, particularly when carrying shopping or luggage, but also reinforces the feeling that this is a home designed with ease of living in mind.

Once inside accessed from the lift within a private lobby, the layout opens out in a way that feels both logical and flexible. The main living space is arranged to create a natural flow between the lounge and dining areas, allowing each to serve its purpose without feeling disconnected. The proportions here are generous, giving ample room for larger furniture arrangements while still maintaining a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere. Sliding patio doors lead directly out onto a substantial balcony terrace, offering an elevated outlook across the communal gardens below. It’s easy to see how this space could be used throughout the day, whether that’s a quiet morning coffee, a place to unwind in the evening, or somewhere to host friends when the weather allows.

The kitchen has been newly fitted and thoughtfully designed with a practical balance of storage and workspace. A range of wall, base and tower units provide plenty of room to keep everything organised, while integrated appliances ensure a streamlined finish. The choice of work surfaces adds a subtle contrast without overwhelming the space, and there’s enough room for a more informal dining setup alongside, which works well for everyday use. Just off the kitchen, a separate utility room and pantry offer additional storage and help keep the main space clutter-free, something that makes a real difference in day-to-day living.

The sleeping accommodation is equally well considered, with three double bedrooms and a fourth single that currently serves as an office. The main bedroom stands out for its scale, comfortably accommodating larger furnishings while still leaving space to move freely. It benefits from a well-finished en-suite and a dedicated walk-in dressing area, creating a suite that feels complete in its own right. Bedroom two enjoys the added benefit of its own balcony terrace, overlooking the frontage to the property. Bedroom three is also of a good size with built in wardrobes providing amble storage space. Bedroom four is a single bedroom, which is currently utilised as an office, but also accommodating a single guest futon bed. The bedrooms are supported by well-appointed bathroom facilities.

Storage has clearly been a consideration throughout, with fitted wardrobes and additional built-in solutions helping to keep the overall feel of the apartment clean and uncluttered. Combined with modern central heating and double glazing, the property is set up to be comfortable and efficient throughout the year.

Externally, the communal gardens are well-kept and provide a pleasant outlook from the apartment’s elevated position. While the apartment itself benefits from its own balcony terraces, having access to maintained outdoor surroundings adds another layer of appeal, particularly for those who want some greenery without the upkeep of a private garden.

The location is one of the key reasons properties along Westbourne Road are so consistently sought after. Birkdale village is within easy reach, offering a mix of independent shops, cafés and everyday amenities that make day-to-day living straightforward. For those commuting or travelling further afield, transport links are readily accessible, with rail connections and road networks providing convenient options. The area is also well served by a selection of highly regarded schools, which adds to the long-term appeal for buyers thinking ahead.

Overall, this penthouse offers a rare combination of space, flexibility and modern finish within a well-regarded setting. It’s the kind of property that works just as well for entertaining as it does for quieter day-to-day living, and one that adapts easily depending on how it’s used.
