Property description
We are delighted to bring this property to the market for only the third time since its construction 163 years ago.
A stone’s throw from Crosby Coastal Park, the new owner will benefit from the pictureperfect views over the estuary and across towards the Wirral and the Welsh mountains beyond.
This house deserves a new proprietor that will carefully restore and preserve the original architectural detailing throughout and retain the character of this true Victorian Splendour.
Setting the scene
Built in 1861 by a prominent civil engineer, the house is part of a six-house terrace. In a nod to the former Georgian Period, the grade II listed façade features a generous, full height barrel bay with 2 windows at each level, allowing natural light to pour into the interior.
The Grand Tour
Upon approach to the property itself, the elegant stature is immediately apparent. A flight of 5 stone steps lead you to a tall, square headed doorway with a dentilled cornice. The panelled door leads you into the grand entrance hall via a porchway.
From here, you can begin to appreciate the true craftsmanship of the exquisite original features whilst envisioning the stylish class of a bygone era via the atmospheric colour scheme and marble accents throughout. Natural light pours in through full-length windows that draw the eye to the wonderful interior design.
The ornate cornicing and pitch pine flooring are amongst the vast array of original detailing that continues throughout the 3 storeys of this grand property. In the main house, 6 bedrooms occupy the layout. All of which are accessed via a large sweeping staircase.
The Coach House
Of the six-house terrace, this particular property is the only one of which to retain the original coach house within its curtilage. Painstakingly refurbished and converted for residential use, the former coach house is currently occupied as a self-contained, 1 bed single let that can be accessed directly from Coach House Mews.
The Grounds
Set back from the street, the impressive front elevation is substantiated by the simple yet sophisticated front garden that is line with wrought iron railings.
To the rear, an extensive lawn is flanked by mature trees and vegetation that provide ample shade on summer days. The landscaped garden also allows access to the detached coach house.
Out and About
Situated on Wellington Street, a no-through road. The property overlooks beautifully maintained Crosby Coastal Park and the breathtaking coastline of Crosby Beach to the West. In the distance, the mountains of Snowdonia can be seen. There are numerous coastal walking trails on the doorstep. A short distance to the north, further dramatic coastline can be found at the National Trust Reserve Formby Beach, known for its sand dunes and its population of rare native red squirrels.
The charming villages of Freshfield and Formby are 20-minutes away and offer a wide array of conveniences, including a Waitrose, numerous independent coffee shops, restaurants and pubs. The area lies at the centre of England’s Golf Coast, home to three Royal courses, including Royal Birkdale, which is a 25-minute drive from the house.
Schooling is exceptional in the area and includes Merchant Taylor’s Boys and Girls schools, which are 5 minutes by car.
