On the border of Little Crosby and Ince Blundell, this handsome 1930s home sits proudly on a generous corner plot, full of charm, character and beautifully considered upgrades throughout.
Set behind a gated driveway, the property immediately feels private and established, with plenty of parking to the front and a further driveway leading to a detached garage at the rear. The outside space is a real highlight - a south-facing garden that enjoys the sun well into the evening, with a generous lawn, patio area and additional space to the side, ideal for families, entertaining or simply unwinding.
Step inside and the tone is set from the outset. The porch opens into a truly impressive hallway - wide, welcoming and rich in original detail. The restored parquet flooring has been brought back to life, complemented by wall panelling, circular feature windows and beautifully replicated double glazed leaded lights that stay true to the home’s 1930s heritage. It’s a space so generous the sellers even have a couch here - which instantly gives that warm, homely feel.
The front lounge is elegant and inviting, centred around a bay window with plantation shutters (still under warranty), a parquet-framed wooden floor and a feature fireplace. To the rear, a second reception room offers a more relaxed setting, complete with a log burner - perfect for cosy evenings - and flows seamlessly through oak partition doors into the extension. Currently used as a home office, this versatile space could easily serve as a formal dining room or playroom, with new patio doors opening directly onto the garden.
The breakfast kitchen is well-appointed and practical, leading through to a separate utility room and WC - a valuable addition for busy family life, offering extra workspace and storage.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom mirrors the charm of downstairs with its bay window and matching shutters. Two further well-proportioned bedrooms complete the first floor, along with a stylish family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and separate shower.
The home has been thoughtfully improved in recent years, including a new composite front door, upgraded double glazing (with stained glass detailing to the hallway), new patio doors, internal oak doors, updated bathroom and utility windows, new flooring and carpets, refreshed fencing and gates, full redecoration and external painting in 2025. The detached garage has also had electricity installed, opening up exciting potential as a workspace, studio or even a garden bar.
Beyond the property itself, the location is a real draw. With easy access to Little Crosby village, Blundell Park, plus Formby in one direction and motorway access in the other, as well as excellent transport links, reliable bus routes and some of Sefton’s most sought-after schools, it’s a setting that balances convenience with a strong sense of community. Neighbours are long-standing and welcoming, and the area has a genuine pride and warmth that’s hard to find.
A characterful, flexible and truly homely property, perfectly suited to modern family life while retaining everything that makes a 1930s home so special.
