Bidston Road, Oxton, CH43 6TS

This is a seriously interesting, and certainly handsome home sitting along Bidston Road within such short reach of the renowned Birkenhead School. Interesting for its plot size, and do note its south westerly facing rear aspect with incomparable view to Wirral Golf Course. Interesting, too, for its original layout - offering a collection of substantial entertaining rooms, grand reception, as well as a detached triple garage. Pointing out, of course, that once necessary permissions are indeed in place, this substantial five bedroomed detached home offers some rather fine potential... You'll find the main accommodation, including the expansive living room, the central snug, the formal diner, and, indeed, the morning room all sitting to the rear of the property, thus enjoying the pretty aspect to the garden, and this, too, is a particular treat. With the incumbent gardener having been pruning and mowing here for some 35 years, you can expect a splendid collection of colour; roses, rhododendrons, lavenders et al.  But more on this a little later... Indeed, there's the cloakroom off the reception hallway, with central turned staircase and galleried landing, too. The kitchen, like many, the nerve centre of the home, sits to the far end of the reception hall. A working kitchen, with granite worktops, and complimentary palette to the cabinetry, is complete with Aga, and separate double oven, the cooks have certainly been catered for here. And although you may want to remodel, utilising the rear morning room, plus ancillary store rooms through the side door, the current layout has been well thought out, with almost separate area for utilities. Nonetheless, a large, bright and well equipped space. Upstairs, the principle suite runs from front to rear and incorporates a dressing room, large private bathroom with four piece suite, as well as a great deal of storage to the wall to wall wardrobes, not to mention a charming view out to the gardens and golf course. There are four further doubles, a second en suite, and a family bathroom, too. Two of these doubles enjoy the same rear aspect out over the gardens; and then two to the front. Access, too, to the loft area, which holds significant potential. The south westerly facing plot is both proportionate to the property itself, and also beautifully presented - sweeping driveway to the private frontage passes the front lawn and gives parking for family and guests. So too does the detached triple garage - again holding potential. To the far end of the plot there is a car port, currently used as the gardener's entrance and handy store for those garden sundries.  The gardens to the rear really are impressive, private, too. There's a huge patio space accessed by several points including (but not limited to) morning room and snug, with gentle steps up to the expansive lawn. A superb space for the children, and adults! to enjoy. There are also diversions through the impressive shrubberies to be enjoyed - a treasure trove to be discovered. Do please note the gate onto Wirral Golf Course - whose clubhouse sits just a few minutes' walk from the house. To talk location, we're less than a five minute walk to Birkenhead School. And just a little further to BHSA, and St Anselm's College, too. Both Mersey tunnels are within a ten minute car journey, and the M53 links sit within easy reach, too; making for an ideal commuters' spot.
