Originally a 1930’s house and smaller in stature than its present form, The Meadow has been greatly extended and modernized over the years, and now comprises a charming family home, with a tremendous degree of adaptability including the superb self contained annexe which is suitable for a variety of uses including as extension to the main house, for a dependent relative or for letting from which to derive an income.<br/><br/>Soon after 2012 when the present owners acquired The Meadow, the house was further improved, being re-roofed and rendered, and new kitchen and bathrooms installed. The property now provides spacious and well proportioned family accommodation arranged over two floors and served by gas central heating and double glazing. The layout is fairly traditional in style, with an impressive entrance hall with turned staircase off which are the principal reception rooms all overlooking the gardens and with plenty of natural light. The kitchen incorporates a range of bespoke wall and floor units beneath granite work surfaces, a 2 oven gas fired Aga, integrated oven and microwave, and plenty of cupboards and drawers for storage. The dining room is a particularly large room, with two sets of French doors to outside, and a lovely parquet floor.<br/><br/>At first floor level the living space is as extensive, comprising five double bedrooms, and three bath/shower rooms. The master suite is particularly spacious with a large dressing room incorporating extensive wardrobes. The remaining bedrooms all have either fitted furniture or plenty of space for free standing wardobes. The annexe is accessed from the dining room, but with little alteration work could be altered to provide an independent door to outside. The majority of the rooms also overlook the gardens at the rear, and there is a downstairs utility with W.C. which could be adapated to provide washing facilities should someone wish to have a ground floor wet room. The annexe is independently served by a dedicated gas boiler. It also adjoins the garage, which has previously had an interconnecting door, now boarded over, so offering scope for further extension/alteration if required.<br/><br/>Location<br/><br/>The Meadow occupies a private position in Heswall, amongst secluded grounds and close to the centre of the town. Heswall is regarded as one of the most sought after residential areas in Wirral with comprehensive services and amenities for everyday needs including numerous shops, pubs and restaurants, doctor’s and dentist’s surgeries, opticians, vets and supermarkets.
