'Unique' Victorian home with 'impressive' modern extension for sale

A ‘unique’ home has been listed for sale in Merseyside that is both a combination of Victorian design and modern architecture.

The three bedroom property is double fronted, meaning it has retained its original period features in the front but also has a second entrance that is much more modern.

The ‘striking’ side entrance is behind a wrought iron gated driveway that leads directly onto the gardens and a raised wooden decking seating area.

It is ‘tucked away’ in a quiet cul-de-sac, on Bradley Street, but also within walking distance to all Southport town centre has to offer.

On the market with Ball and Percival, the semi-detached home is selling for offers in the region of £319,995.
