3 Bedroom Detached House

Finding a home in Thornton is usually a trade-off between location and layout. Runnells Lane changes that. This is a detached, three/four-bedroom home, that’s being sold with no onward chain and vacant possession, it’s a straightforward move for anyone looking to bypass the usual delays.

Living Space with Options
The ground floor is built for flow. You have a modern, open-plan kitchen that leads into a through lounge and dining area, eventually opening out into the conservatory. It works perfectly as it is, but for those with an eye for development, the potential here is significant. Whether you choose to upgrade the conservatory into a formal orangery or take advantage of the plot size to extend to the side, there is a clear path to creating a massive, wrap-around kitchen-living family space.

The Wildcard Room
The garage conversion is a game-changer. It’s a genuine multi-functional space that transforms this from a standard three-bed into a ¾ bedroom home. It’s the home office you actually want to work in, a playroom that keeps the Lego out of the lounge, or a comfortable guest suite.

Outside and Practicality
The external space is just as generous. A large South East facing garden, captures the best of the day’s sun, perfect for family BBQ’s during the summer months, while the front features a substantial driveway with enough room for four-cars, a rare find for the area.

The Best of Both Worlds

The property sits within the catchment for highly regarded schools, including Holy Family and Crosby High, making it a logical choice for families. Commuting is easy via the A5480 Brooms Cross Road, providing quick links to the M57 and M58. Nearby Blundellsands & Crosby station offers direct Merseyrail services into Liverpool Central.
