Period family home boasts its own swimming pool

A family home with its own swimming pool has come on the market in a "desirable" Merseyside village.

'Lotus House' is a detached, four-bed family home on Red Cat Lane, a semi-rural area in Crank, near St Helens. It is one of a community of just four private homes in the area, with sweeping views of Billinge Hill.

The house itself is set back from the road with a Jack and Jill style driveway and a large lawned front garden.

From the hallway, the house opens up into a vast lounge, diner and kitchen area complete with an internal balcony and wrought iron balustrade. The décor has a period feel, with a looming historic fireplace set in a bare stone chimney breast, stone pillars and exposed beams.

The swimming pool is the 'heart of the home' and is a real selling point; it's located to the rear of the house, accessed via a second large living room through bi-fold doors.

The pool itself sits within a glass conservatory offering views of the surrounding countryside. The space also has room to relax, with sunbeds and floral arrangements along the side, as well as its own changing facilities.

Outside there is a large back patio and further gardens, while an integrated garage, WC and home office make up the remainder of the first floor.

Upstairs there are four decent sized bedrooms, all of which have built-in wardrobes for extra storage. The master bedroom also has dual aspect views to the front and rear of the property.

The grand family bathroom is decked in dark mahogany and boasts a double shower cubicle, a corner Jacuzzi bath and seated area.

The house is on the market with Entwistle Green. It's a rare opportunity, as only two other properties have sold on Red Cat Lane since 1999.
