A look inside the Wirral "hidden gem" that's up for grabs

A uniquely designed apartment within a historic Heswall building has come on the market.

The two/three-bedroom property in the Farr Hall building on Farr Hall Drive provides a modern contrast to the period façade.

The ground-floor apartment opens up with a grand entrance hall. Eyes are immediately drawn down to the ornate decorative tiles and white painted staircase that contrasts against the deep grey walls and set the tone for what's to come.

The staircase is currently used as a coved library space. Below there is access to a large cellar, which could even be used as a gym.

The current owners are not shy of a splash of colour. The open plan kitchen, lounge and dining space is painted in several hues of blue, with dark wood furnishings and pops of red and yellow throughout.

The room has retained its original parquet flooring and French doors lead out to a sun terrace.

The colour doesn't stop there, with the bathroom featuring deep aubergine walls and more statement decorative floor tiles.

There are two bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite. A utility hall provides access to a garage with two allocated parking spaces, as well as a cosy lounge that boasts a log burner.

The stunning mature garden area has a herb garden, pond and an azalea walk.

House prices on Farr Hall Drive have soared by 162% for £870,000 in the last year. The figure is a 13% increase on the 2015 peak of £769,750.
