Property description

Few properties have the ability to stir emotion and desire even before one takes a step across the threshold, yet the sheer beauty of this simply stunning detached Georgian-style residence is almost overwhelming and certainly has that unique quality in abundance. This picture postcard property is the quintessential dream home and has no doubt been cast many wistful glances by passers-by, situated within one of the area’s finest addresses on the shore side of Birkdale, and the salubrious location certainly reflects the property’s fine credentials. For those with a golfing pedigree, the Championship Golf Courses virtually on the doorstep will be sure to score highly, including the prestigious Royal Birkdale, whilst the bustling village centre is only a short distance away, with its cosmopolitan range of shops, bars and eateries, perfect for those who enjoy an active social calendar. Highly respected local schools are also within easy reach, an important consideration for any family home, whilst convenient transport links ensure that the whole family are suitably catered for within this thriving community.

‘Hilltop’ was constructed in 1937 and comprehensively renovated in 2007 with the aid of an interior designer to create a unique home of distinction that is almost without compare and unparalleled in terms of its almost unassailable standards of quality and luxury. The property exudes opulence and style throughout its 3,814 square feet of accommodation, coupled with an impeccable quality of finish, with only the finest quality fixtures and fittings and a keen eye for detail resulting in an almost impossible standard being achieved. With so many highlights, it would be a futile task to select one particular feature which makes this home so special; the magnificent entrance hall with its travertine limestone flooring oozes grandeur and sophistication, boasting a bespoke fitted Oak display cabinet and a convenient cloakroom/WC; the stunning 16’ conservatory is a perfect space for relaxation or contemplation whilst gazing at the truly impressive rear garden, into which one could retire for a cocktail or two in those warm Summer evenings following those intimate soirees held within the marvellous 17’ dining room, when one feels the urge to entertain, which is flooded with natural light via the plethora of windows, or perhaps it could be the extensive, South-facing rear garden itself, with its swathes of lawn, mature borders and high degree of privacy, which infuses a real feeling of calm and tranquillity. For many, however, the simply fabulous open plan kitchen/diner/family room will be the piece de resistance and the real crowning glory of this almost regal home; with its epic 26’ proportions, this bright space creates a magnificent hub of the home which lends itself perfectly to the needs of the modern family, creating a wonderfully sociable space for all generations to gather.

Our clients, at great expense, have created what is simply a culinary delight of a living space, with a gorgeous Edwin Loxley bespoke, hand-painted kitchen, complimented by the use of granite and natural wood, as well as travertine limestone flooring and ‘Fired Earth’ wall tiling, whilst there are a host of quality integrated appliances, including Falcon range-style cooker with extractor canopy, American-style fridge/freezer, additional fridge and freezer, two dishwashers, wine cooler and a Miele microwave and coffee maker. In its entirety, the accommodation briefly comprises of entrance porch, imposing reception hallway with cloakroom/WC, 32’ lounge with discreet study area, dining room, conservatory, kitchen/diner/family room, utility room, impressive first floor landing, four appealing double bedrooms, two with spacious dressing rooms and sharing a ‘Jack & Jill’ style en-suite shower room, as well as two further family bathrooms, which are beautifully appointed. Further luxurious appointments include a video security entry system, partial under-floor heating, an integrated Bose audio system and mood lighting.

Externally, the marvellous plot has a real sense of grandeur, with beautifully manicured lawns bordered with mature trees and shrubs. To the rear, the York stone patio area provides a perfect space in which to enjoy a glass of wine after a hard day in the office, or perhaps a spot of lunch for those with a penchant for al-fresco dining. A delightful carriage driveway, accessed via electronically operated wrought-iron gates with security intercom, provides off-road parking facilities for a number of vehicles, as well as giving access to the attached double garage. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique home and we would advise early viewing to appreciate all that this elegant residence has to offer.
