Combining generous living accommodation, timeless period features and a highly desirable location, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in one of Crosby's most sought-after residential areas.

Notes from the Seller: I love the view from the loft room window; if you look carefully you can see Anfield stadium and across the water to Wirral. On New Year’s Eve and Bonfire Night it is amazing to watch the fireworks from there. I’ll miss the convenient location: just a five-minute walk for the school drop off and round the corner from the beach and Crosby leisure centre. But my favourite thing is the spacious bathroom. With a few candles lit and music on the Bluetooth speakers in the ceiling it feels like a spa!
