Even though it is a large house, with spectacular outdoor space and a beautiful garden, it also feels very homely. We also loved the fact that the house, while remaining peaceful and secluded, is in the heart of a thriving and friendly community, minutes from the centre of Liverpool.”What would you like to tell parents about the benefits of raising children here?  “The house offers so much for children. There is ample space for indoor playing (hide and seek a favourite) and the children enjoy the excitement of being able to use the cinema with friends or for family movie nights. The swimming pool and the versatile, large but contained garden allow them to burn off energy outside. There are large bedrooms for the kids to enjoy but we love the fact that given there are four bedrooms on one floor, we remain close to each other at night. It is the perfect house for hosting, especially at Christmas when the house really comes into its own, so the children have benefited from having family and friends with us often.”What can you tell us about the history of the property and how it has been adapted since you’ve owned it? “The house was designed and commissioned back in the 1920's by a famous shipping family, the Holts and we have the original architectural drawings framed and up on the wall. They seemed like a very welcoming family as there are newspaper cut outs about local children being invited into the house to use the lift which we are told was the first residential one of its kind. The house still retains features of its shipping heritage with unique porthole windows in the grand hallway and the old bell system, now made electronic, throughout the rooms. We have adapted the house to make it work better for a family, with the snug becoming a playroom. We have had the gates expertly restored by a local carpenter, we also replaced the boiler with a modern, efficient system to ensure the original part of the house remained cosy and warm through the winter. The water features in the garden were also made child safe.”Who do you think would be the ideal next owner? “The unique thing about Axholme is that it would work for many types of owners. A large family needing extra space, intergenerational families given the potential for separate living in the annexe, or for a smaller family such as a couple who love to host gatherings or benefit from leisure facilities. The house is move in ready, but it also might suit an owner who wants to adapt the house to suit their needs and style such as adding an upstairs balcony to look over the garden.” What’s your favourite room and why? “Each member of the family would answer differently. For the children, the sunken trampoline and zip wire in the garden would be their favourite feature but as our daughter gets a little older, she loves her own space in her bedroom and the ample space for sleepovers. As a couple, one of us would choose the large patio outside the kitchen as it is a great hosting space and a sun trap from early to late in the year. The other one of us would choose the characterful drawing room where you can read a book in front of the fire and place the most amazing Christmas tree in the bay window. Another personal favourite for us all is the circular bench at the back of the garden under the largest tree in the garden, from which you can look back on the house while listening to the pond's waterfall.”Memorable/remarkable event? “Too many to list, including legendary New Years parties, milestone birthday celebrations, frequent family barbeques and most recently hosting a family wedding in marquees designed to take in the beauty of the garden space. Christmas is also of course the highlight of each year.“What do you love about the house the most now? “That it feels like a personal and peaceful sanctuary, away from the busyness of life while always feeling like home. Also, that it has become the heart of our wider family as it is the perfect home to get everyone together.“What do you love about the local community? “It is such a friendly, welcoming community with such lovely neighbours. We also love that the quaint village of Oxton is so close and that we are close to excellent schools and children's activities. Living on the Wirral also offers us as a family so much access to walks and nature. We regularly enjoy trips to the beach, woods and farms in the local area.”What you’ll miss most? “We love the area and community so much that we do not intend to move far so we don't have to miss out on that. But we will miss the homely grandeur of the house and the flexibility to host many gatherings, and most of all the garden as well as the light that pours into our living spaces.”Additional Information Services: Mains water, electricity, gas and drainage.
