Set privately at the end of Palace Road, this substantial five-bedroom detached home offers generous family living across circa 4,060 sq ft. The ground floor opens into a bright 38ft open-plan kitchen, dining and family area with an oak shaker-style kitchen and large island, complemented by a separate reception room and flexible utility space. Large windows and patio doors connect indoor living to extensive, well-landscaped gardens and a premium flagged terrace — ideal for children and outdoor entertaining.
A gallery landing leads to five double bedrooms across the first and second floors, including a master suite with walk-in dressing room, balcony and integrated wardrobes. Four en-suite bathrooms plus a family bathroom provide useful circulation for large households. The property also includes a detached, fully fitted one-bedroom annex with living area, kitchen and shower room — suitable for long-term guests, staff or potential rental income.
Practical strengths include extensive off-road parking accessed via electric gates, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, and a large private plot in an affluent, low-crime area close to Birkdale Village, schools and rail links. Notable considerations: the house dates from the late 1960s–1970s so some systems may require updating; the glazing install date is unknown; broadband speeds are reported as slow; and council tax is quite expensive. The tenure is listed as unknown in core data (details elsewhere suggest Freehold), so buyers should verify tenure and service records professionally.
This home will suit growing families seeking space, privacy and flexibility, or buyers wanting a substantial property with an income-capable annex. Internal inspection is recommended to assess finish levels and any modernization needs, especially for technology and long-term mechanical updates.
