4 bed detached house for sale

St. Michaels Road, Blundellsands L23

‘Ranza’ sits proudly on the corner of St Michaels Road and Dowhills Road in the heart of Blundellsands. Dating back to 1926, this wonderful home is full of charm, character and original features.

Step through the brightly painted red front door into the porch with its original quarry tiles, setting the tone for what lies beyond. The hallway is a truly impressive space - originally designed as the home’s dining hall - where an exposed brick fireplace surround hints at the roaring fires that would once have filled the room. The seller also advises that the original parquet flooring lies beneath the carpet.

Off the hallway is a formal lounge with a bay window overlooking the large side garden. There is a dining kitchen with original servant bells and beautiful period cabinetry, alongside a formal dining room which opens into a bright sun room overlooking the south-facing garden. A utility room and downstairs WC complete the ground floor.

To the first floor are four generous double bedrooms, three with fitted wardrobes. What were originally separate bathroom and WC rooms have been combined to create a spacious family bathroom, while the primary bedroom benefits from a hidden en suite shower room tucked behind a pocket door.

Outside there is a detached garage and driveway accessed from Dowhills Road. The property enjoys three lawned garden areas with plenty of potential to create more private outdoor spaces if desired, along with several useful outbuildings.
