Merry Farm is a rare, characterful family home set on a generous wrap‑around plot in Woolston. Dating from the 1700s, the house retains original features — exposed beams, quarry tiles and period windows — and offers spacious, well‑proportioned rooms including four double bedrooms and multiple reception areas that suit growing families. The sun room and mature gardens provide quiet, private outdoor space for children and entertaining.
Practical strengths include ample off‑road parking, a detached double garage and fast broadband (up to 1130Mb), making the property suitable for remote working or multi‑vehicle households. The location sits close to highly regarded schools, the M6 and commuter routes to Manchester and Liverpool, while local green spaces and nature reserves add to the suburban tranquillity.
Buyers should be aware this historic solid‑brick house likely has no wall insulation (as built) and therefore may be energy inefficient; some sympathetic updating and modernisation will be beneficial. Council tax is above average, and any conversion of outbuildings would be subject to planning permission. Flood risk is low and the area records very low crime, but prospective purchasers should budget for ongoing maintenance typical of older properties.
Overall, Merry Farm will suit a family seeking a generous period home with substantial gardens and flexible living space, who are prepared to invest in energy improvements and cosmetic updating to fully realise the property’s long‑term potential.
