Croft Drive East, Wirral, CH48

Muldron is a gated, six-bedroom country house of approximately 6300 sq ft, set in private, mature grounds in Caldy, one of the Wirral’s most sought-after addresses. It combines generous family living with leisure facilities rarely found in a private home: an indoor pool, gym, dedicated cinema and outdoor hot tub and bar. West Kirby, the Marine Lake and the coast are all close by.

Arrival

Electric gates open onto a sweeping carriage-style driveway with subtle lighting, giving the house a striking approach day or night. Parking is set discreetly to the rear in a triple garage, keeping the formal frontage uncluttered even when entertaining.

Living spaces

The entrance hall sets the tone, with herringbone flooring, underfloor heating and an elegant staircase. The main living room has high ceilings, panelling in Farrow & Ball tones, a fireplace and large bay windows. A study off the hall, currently a games room, offers flexibility as a private workspace.

The kitchen is the heart of the house. Its large square island, extensive cabinetry and separate pantry suit everyday family life, while the dining and garden room opens directly onto the terrace. A snug with sliding doors to the garden and hot tub completes the ground floor.

Leisure

Glazed double doors frame the first view of the indoor pool, which is designed for year-round use and fitted with two swim jets for exercise. Alongside are a mirrored gym and shower room, creating a private wellness suite. On the second floor, a dedicated cinema room with atmospheric lighting and its own shower room is used daily for films and sport.

Bedrooms

The principal suite has a walk-in dressing room and a marble bathroom with twin basins, freestanding bath and walk-in shower. Further bedrooms include en-suite and dressing-room options, a room with its own balcony, and space that adapts easily to guest suites, offices or teenage accommodation. A first-floor laundry room sits conveniently close to the bedrooms.

Technology

Sonos audio runs through the house and garden, TV points are hard-wired to Ethernet, and a dedicated communications room houses the CCTV, Sky and audio systems. 360° camera coverage, the gates and the garage can all be controlled by app.

Grounds

Mature protected trees give the gardens exceptional privacy, with a sunny rear garden, decorative bridge, water features and weeping willows. The lawns are low-maintenance, and the terrace, covered bar, hot tub and outdoor seating create a natural flow for summer entertaining.

Location

Caldy is known for its mature, leafy setting and closeness to the coast. West Kirby’s independent shops, cafés and restaurants are nearby, as are the Marine Lake for sailing and watersports, Caldy Hill, the Wirral Way and Caldy Golf Club.
