Magnificent Edwardian house frozen in time

A charming character house, which dates back to the 1900s and comes with its own separate bungalow, has been listed for sale.

The massive six-bedroom semi-detached home is on Pensby Road in Thingwall, on the Wirral, and also benefits from a separate detached bungalow or annexe on the land. The house has a number of period features adding to its charm, including stained-glass windows, hard wood floors.

Guest are welcomed via a huge driveway and lawned front garden into the main house with a quirky veranda to the front. It also has a large vestibule with attractive original stained-glass windows.
