A home has come on the market in Merseyside that wouldn’t look out of place in a sunny location.
The four bedroom detached property, on Wicks Crescent, Formby, is described as being similar to a ‘Mediterranean villa.’
A balcony with views overlooking the surrounding green and the stunning gardens that boast water features all add to the holiday-home atmosphere of the property.

Other four bedroom houses, less than 0.4 miles away, are on the market for £500,000 on Wicks Green, £575,000 on Oakfield Drive and £569,995 on Firs Crescent.
Images on Rightmove show that while the house is advertised as a four bedroom property, it could easily be a five.

“An extremely bright and spacious home, which certainly has the charm of a Mediterranean Villa.
