Vyner Road North, Bidston, CH43

As an estate agent, there comes with the role an occupational hazard that sees us imprint on a home that we've had the pleasure, in fact, joy, to be invited to. Pinewood is the one.

Comfortably perched within the Pines of neighbouring woodland, and delivering a superb seclusion from the busy world, Pinewood not only offers a slice of the tranquil way of life, but a versatility of living that you would not perhaps find in your average family home. For this is far from average, in fact, it's really rather magical...

Diving straight in, we need to point out the proportionality of this home and its plot. The gardens to Pinewood wrap themselves around the house itself and offer rolling lawns, decking, deep borders, diversions and curiosities for all to explore, look out for the dedicated coffee terrace, too.

Let's move inside, where firstly we were taken by the size, secondly by the flow, and thirdly by the finish - this isn't grandiose - its effortlessly chic, with notes of tradition and hints of the contemporary - but mostly it really is unique.

We've three similarly size receptions, all of which enjoy the verdant aspect of the surrounding woodland. There's a dedicated dining area opening through to the huge sitting room - the main event, if we may - with beautiful wooden flooring, giving a rightful nod to that woodland setting, with a splayed bay window with door leading outside - a suitable reading nook, indeed. And further glazing looking to the gardens; it's a thorough treat. 

Onwards we have the third reception with no compromise on view, we have another huge bay here, with an aspect ready to distract you from your TV viewing, work, homework et al... In fact, there are traditional feature windows throughout, which you'll have noted through your tour of Pinewood, that frame the various aspects so very beautifully, the vast majority of which are double glazed.

The interconnection of the main sitting room with the dining room, and the separation of the third reception gives the choice, and breathing space, one needs as a family unit. You've then the breakfast kitchen, too - a superb contemporary space with a host of gadgets and appliances, clever cabinetry, and informal dining area to the central island with breakfast bar. There are two ovens, a hob and sink encompassed within the island, and a huge amount of prep' space for hosting. And please don't overlook the bi-folds leading out to the coffee terrace - a private area to enjoy ahead of a busy day. 

Before we pop upstairs, a note to housekeeping; when you arrive and hang your coat in the reception hall, you will have by-passed the very handy downstairs loo. You'll have also skirted past the utility room where there's all the rightful plumbing for your own kit; plus the boiler to the kitchen (regularly serviced). 

Right, up to the first floor which proffers four of the five bedrooms, and with a master bedroom which is just as impressive as the ground floor, we're excited for you to see it. A room, some 5msq, which sits atop the third reception, has elevated views of the ground and the Scotch Pines to the boundary line. Wooden flooring, again, running a gorgeous natural finish through the room which leads through to the tremendously enviable dressing room which offers superb closet space.

We have a split landing to the first floor; there's a double bedroom sitting to front of the house, yes, with pretty aspect and wooden flooring; and neighbouring the first of two contemporary bathrooms. To this level we have a large three piece suite with walk in shower. To the upper first floor we have a further two bedrooms (plus master) - both doubles; with the smallest room still giving 3msq, there should be few arguments on who gets which room! 

There's the second bathroom here, too, which is certainly impressive; complete with huge stand alone tub and sky light window above. Do note here that the dressing room abuts this bathroom, and could, therefore, be turned into an en suite should you so wish...

The fifth bedrooms sits to the second floor - a teenager's retreat, perhaps, with additional snug area accessed through a teenager's sized hatch - perfect for a snug cinema space?? 

So, let's summarise - we've a considerably sized (3,300sqft/315sqm) family home, with generous parking, three proportionate receptions, plus breakfast kitchen, plus two and a half bathrooms, plus utility, plus one of the most attractive settings we've seen, with a splendid, natural, minimalistic design. 

It's gorgeous.
