Overall, sold prices in Calderstones over the last year were similar to the previous year and 9% up on the 2018 peak of £395,293. Images on Rightmove show the home has a grand double door entrance which leads onto an 'astounding hall and lobby.'

It boasts many luxurious features including porcelain tiles, a chandelier and glass balcony which sets the tone for the property overall, that benefits from 'carefully thought out architecture' throughout. On the ground floor there are numerous family rooms and the first of five bedrooms.

The main living room overlooks the front garden of the property and has a multi fuel log burner, that helps create a cosy atmosphere. Next to this is a family entertainment room.

An open plan layout allows for plenty of space in the kitchen/diner area. The fitted integrated kitchen has been custom made and boasts an island, two ovens, two dishwaters, two warming drawers and a hot tap.

From the kitchen, aluminium bi-fold doors lead into the back garden space, which would allow for alfresco dining in the warmer months. This area also has a separate utility room and bathroom.

The first floor mezzanine leads to the remaining four bedrooms and a family bathroom. Some of the double bedrooms have ensuite shower rooms. While the two main bedrooms each come with their own custom made storage designs.
