6 bed detached house for sale

Oldfield Road, Heswall, Wirral CH60

A Unique and Expansive Six Bedroom Home with Panoramic Welsh Vistas

Riverside Lodge is a substantial and immaculately finished six-bedroom detached residence, occupying over 5,700 square feet of refined living space. Nestled within 0.44 acres of expertly landscaped, south facing grounds, this extraordinary home enjoys uninterrupted, panoramic views across the Welsh countryside – an offering as rare as it is remarkable.

This distinguished property represents a unique opportunity to acquire one of the last remaining original homes of its kind on the prestigious Oldfield Road. Conveniently situated within close proximity to Heswall town centre, the location provides effortless access to a wealth of amenities, outstanding local schools, scenic walking routes including Heswall Dales and the Wirral Way, and the sought after West Wirral coastline.

The interior is both impressive and versatile, introduced by a grand entrance hallway with elegant wood panelled walls and a well appointed cloakroom. The principal reception room features an inviting inglenook fireplace and is accessed via a character rich hallway reminiscent of a traditional library. A separate formal dining room includes a second feature fireplace and an integrated wet bar complete with fridge, storage for glassware and beverages, and coffee making facilities. A versatile reception room currently serves as an art studio but was originally designed as a catering kitchen, seamlessly connecting to a home gym, shower and WC. Another adaptable space functions as a games room and has previously served as a study and playroom.

At the heart of the home lies the expansive open plan kitchen, dining and living area – a true showstopper, bathed in natural light from the south facing aspect. Premium features include large format porcelain tiles, an oversized central island in granite, integrated appliances, a walk-in pantry, underfloor heating, and French doors opening onto an elevated rear patio – perfect for entertaining or enjoying the serene surroundings. Also on the ground level is a large utility room with its own shower room and WC, plus a guest bedroom above (currently used for storage).

Upstairs, the first floor is home to five spacious double bedrooms. Three enjoy sleek en-suite shower rooms, while the primary suite includes a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a corner tub, walk-in shower, twin sinks, and a dedicated dressing room. A private balcony provides sweeping views towards the Welsh hills – the ideal retreat for morning coffee or evening relaxation. A chic four-piece family bathroom with freestanding tub and separate shower serves the remaining bedrooms. The second floor offers a private, self-contained suite – perfect for older children or guests – featuring a generous bedroom with an en-suite shower room, built-in wardrobes, a study nook, and a dormer window framing the spectacular elevated views.

Outside, an electric gated entrance leads to a generous driveway with ample parking and access to a remote-controlled double garage. An additional outbuilding serves as a large workshop, but could easily be repurposed into a gym, studio, or annexe. The rear garden is a tranquil, beautifully cultivated space with established planting, an Indian stone patio, and sweeping views towards Moel Famau. Designed to maximise both form and function, the garden has previously featured in the National Garden Scheme – a testament to its thoughtful landscaping and attention to detail.

This is a truly exceptional residence, blending timeless elegance with contemporary comfort and an enviable location. A home of this calibre is rarely available.
