We wanted a detached house that we could make into a home. This house was in need of modernisation but we could see the potential.”  Tell us a little about the home’s history. Have you made any changes or additions that you feel have enhanced its character or functionality?  “We set about a complete renovation but tried to be sympathetic to the age of the house and to retain original features. It feels very warm and welcoming when returning home. Although it’s large, it still feels homely. It is a victorian villa which has had many incarnations over the years but we wanted to return it to a family home adapted for modern living whilst retaining the period aesthetic and character.”  Which spaces do you find yourself gravitating to most, and why?  “We spend most of our time in the kitchen/living area which is light and airy due to the orangery but with a cosy snug. We like to sit here and watch the birds in the garden. We have the sun on the back of the house all afternoon and in the summer we open the french doors to enjoy the garden. The property feels most magical at Christmas. Spacious rooms and high ceilings mean we can have a large tree and Christmas dinner in the formal dining room feels special.”  For families, what do you feel makes this such a wonderful place to raise children?  “This is a great place to raise children because of the close proximity of local amenities including Victoria Park and Southport Beach. There is also a selection of schools around the Southport area. The grounds of the property are completely enclosed so very safe for young children.”  How would you describe the local community and the lifestyle on offer?  “We are only a 10-15 minute walk into Southport which has a number of shops, supermarkets and some good restaurants. Birkdale village is a similar distance and offers a choice of bars, restaurants and coffee shops.”  What kinds of memories have been created here? Celebrations, milestones, or quiet moments that you’ll always cherish?  “We have created lots of happy memories here but have particularly enjoyed watching our grandson enjoy the space and the swimming pool.”  What do you think the next owners will fall in love with most?  “I think the next owners will enjoy the location of the property. The walled garden and set back from the road position makes it feel very private but it is only minutes from all amenities. I think a family with children would feel most at home here and there is enough room for everyone to have their own space as they get older.”  Additional Information    Services: Mains electricity, gas, drainage and water.  Council Tax: Band H.  Local Authority: Sefton.  Tenure: Leasehold.   Rent: £15.  Broadband: (Information taken from checker.ofcom.org.uk)    Standard – 16 Mpbs (highest available download speed) – 1 Mpbs (highest available upload speed)    Superfast – 65 Mpbs (highest available download speed) –13 Mpbs (highest available upload speed)    Mobile coverage: Good Outdoor, Variable In-home (Information taken from checker.ofcom.org.uk)    We always recommend you contact your supplier to discuss the availability of broadband and mobile coverage at this property.     Directions: Using the app what3words type in: rests.bring.ship   Referral Fees: Fine & Country sometimes refers vendors and purchasers to providers of conveyancing, financial services, survey & valuations services, currency exchange and staging & styling.

What the Owner says: 'We bought this property from new some 30 years ago as we loved this particular house and also the surroundings which, were designed to reflect the character of a traditional English village, with individually styled homes arranged around landscaped greens and communal spaces, creating a unique and established setting. Also, as it is in a cul-de-sac and a gated community, it is very secure, as well as being safe for children and pets. The security aspect has been particularly important as we are often away so it can be of benefit to those with a lock-up-and-go lifestyle. It is also great to be so close to the 6000 acres of Epping Forest where we can go for walks or cycle rides and feel we are in the country, yet we are not far from the centre of the town. Loughton is a charming town with plenty of pubs, restaurants and independent shops as well as sports and entertainment including golf courses and the Loughton Leisure Centre with an indoor swimming pool. There is a wide selection of schools in the area including Hereward Primary and Debden Park High School, both rated Outstanding by Ofsted, as well as good independent schools. The town is on the Underground's Central Line that can whisk you to Stratford in 20 minutes and Liverpool Street in about half an hour, so is ideal for commuters wanting to travel to the City or the West End. As far as road travel is concerned it is only a short distance to the M11 for the M25 as well as access to Stansted, Heathrow and Cambridge.'

A further highlight of the house is the upper-level studio/playroom, a wonderfully versatile space with outstanding views, ideal as a creative room, snug, games room or home office. Throughout, Rockhill retains a special sense of heritage, with intriguing architectural details and features that reflect its long history, including an early family photograph in the hall, carved wooden heads said to have been brought back from Malaysia, and a staircase believed to have originated from a ship. Outside The gardens at Rockhill are a particular delight and provide an enchanting setting to the house. Beautifully established and full of seasonal colour, they offer the charm of a classic Devon garden, with cherry blossom and mature planting creating a peaceful, picturesque backdrop. Private patios provide ideal spaces for outdoor dining, morning coffee or an evening glass of fizz in the sunshine, while the gentle sense of shelter and birdsong adds to the tranquillity. From the garden and various seating areas, there are lovely views towards the sea, giving the outside space a distinctly coastal feel.

An utterly delightful country house; sat in established and professionally landscaped gardens and commanding wonderful views of Loughrigg and the Fairfield Horseshoe, Swallows House is full of period charm, has generously proportioned rooms and a layout suited to family life and socialising with friends. The picturesque hamlet location is quiet and peaceful, yet centrally positioned in the Lake District National Park, with Ambleside, Hawkshead, Skelwith Bridge and the Langdales all readily accessible. Dating from the 1600s, the house has been extended and updated since 2001 and now offers a hall, highly practical boot room, dining kitchen, a formal and atmospheric dining room, a generous and welcoming main sitting room and a study with garden and fell views. A door leads from the kitchen to the newer part of the house, a sizeable extension added in 2004. With a more contemporary aesthetic, this part of the house is immensely flexible and can be used as an annex for a dependent family member or for longer stay guests or incorporated into the main living space and occupied as one – on offer is a living room, fifth double bedroom (currently used as a games room), ensuite shower room and a utility room with potential to be upgraded to a kitchenette. Back to the original, period property and an airy set of stairs leads up to the first floor with a cloakroom on the half landing. Off the spacious main landing is the principal ensuite bedroom, three further double bedrooms and a house bathroom. Swallows House will doubtless appeal to those looking to make the Lake District their main residence and to buyers seeking an escape, a private slice of heaven for taking a much-needed break when diaries permit. It will also appeal to parties looking to create a bolt hole but share it with others and let it commercially - the present owners offer it to guests through Wheelwrights Holiday Cottages. As such, most of the contents are included in the sale, enabling new owners to transition smoothly and continue the business. For purchases not looking to let, the contents will be useful as you become established, before putting your own stamp on this lovely property. Location Rural, but not isolated, this is a tranquil country location with fabulous uninterrupted views across the valley to the verdant slopes of neighbouring Loughrigg and Fairfield Horseshoe beyond. This picturesque hamlet-setting benefits from being deeply embedded in the very centre of the Lake District, adjacent to the Langdale Valley, with country and fell walks aplenty from the doorstep. There are many iconic Lakeland villages within a ten miles radius; perfect to dip into when you want shops, a break from kitchen duties (there are also a few places to enjoy a meal out within walking distance including the Drunken Duck) or to see a bit of Lakeland-life. And equally a wonderful place to get away from it all and embrace the calm and stillness that this setting offers. Day-to-day needs are met by local shops and amenities in the nearby villages of Ambleside, Elterwater and Hawkshead, with a branch of regional supermarket Booths in Windermere; and of course these days, most of the major supermarkets also deliver to the property. Whether you want the Lake District for rest and relaxation, for quiet contemplation and inspiration, or for exertion and exhilaration there is something here for everyone. Striding out on the fells, cycling the lanes, wild swimming or simply pottering around the shops and sampling the tea and cake on offer, for generations that have been, for generations that currently are and no doubt for generations to come, the Lake District has it all – there is nowhere quite like it. Step Inside Cross the threshold into the flagged hall and there’s a practical boot room for your outdoor kit. The kitchen has extensive cabinets and space for a table, ideal for breakfast and informal suppers. The atmospheric dining room is deeply charismatic and will make a delightful venue for gathering family and friends for candlelit dinners and Sunday lunches after building an appetite on long fell and lake-side walks. There’s an air of grandeur here, with a deep bay window and open fireplace with twin arched alcoves either side. The large sitting room is an impressive room with a high beamed ceiling and generous proportions commanding super fell views from the deep floor-to-ceiling bay window; this accommodates a second smaller seating arrangement, just the spot for watching the birds in the garden. The main seating area is around the open fireplace and a glazed door connects to the garden. Off the sitting room is a study, the view of Loughrigg will either prove inspirational or distracting as you work! From the sitting room an arched recess marks the foot of the wide staircase to the first floor, off the half landing is a cloakroom. The airy stairwell is flooded with natural light from the large skylight overhead and opens to a generous landing. The principal bedroom suite is a large bedroom with fabulous fell views to wake up to (including the Langdale Pikes), while the ensuite bathroom has a five-piece suite. Three further double bedrooms (generously proportioned to the extent two could be sub-divided), each enjoy splendid views and share the house bathroom. Throughout the house, sanitaryware is mainly Villeroy and Boch. A door from the kitchen connects the old part of the house to the extension which incorporated some of the original walls of the original farmhouse. This is a versatile addition which could be occupied all as one with the main house or used as a self-contained suite for guests or dependent family. It provides you with a sitting room, a fifth double bedroom/games room with an ensuite shower room, and a utility room which could be upgraded to a small kitchenette. Swallows House is a charismatic period property with a sizeable extension that adds a great degree of flexibility to living here. It works well as a permanent or second home but has also proved a popular holiday-let for larger family house parties keen to spend time together or celebrate a landmark occasion. Step Outside Pull in off the lane and a generous driveway parking area is in front of the detached single garage, with a convenient electric car charger installed. There is ready access to both the main front door and the door into the second sitting room. The quintessential landscaped garden is well stocked and a variety of established shrubs are kept neatly trimmed and provide seasonal colour and variation. Lawns and paths weave around the garden to three seating terraces, all laid with traditional Lakeland stone paving and individually positioned to capture a different outlook or the sun as it moves around the garden during the day, finishing on the ‘gin and nibbles’ terrace in the evening.
