Property description

A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase this highly individual Edwardian Birkdale residence, positioned in the much sought after residential location of 'Shore side' Birkdale. The five bedroom property stands in large private grounds with an extensive landscaped garden with tennis court and swimming pool to the rear. The house would benefit from a programme of modernisation but has retained many original features including windows, deep skirting, paneling, and fireplaces. The well planned accommodation has dual staircases and briefly comprises: entrance vestibule, hallway, lounge, dining room, sitting room, cloakroom/WC, fitted breakfast kitchen, laundry, five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The mature grounds are a principle feature and viewing comes highly recommended.

From our Birkdale Office head straight up Weld Road and at the traffic lights turn left onto Lulworth road. Continue through the next set of lights, up the hill and the property is positioned on the left hand side just past the junction with Gainsborough Road
