Detailed Description

The Old Vicarage offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home of character and charm, set within one of St Helens’ most distinctive period buildings. The Old Vicarage itself is an attractive bay-fronted red brick Victorian residence that has been thoughtfully and sympathetically converted into six individual apartments, each retaining a wealth of original features while incorporating the comfort and style of modern living. The communal entrance immediately sets the tone, with its beautifully preserved archway, elegant coving, sweeping staircase, impressive balustrades, and striking stained-glass window - a true reminder of the building’s heritage.

This particular ground floor apartment provides a welcoming sense of space, beginning with a hallway that leads into a well-proportioned lounge, filled with natural light and providing access to a sleek and modern fitted kitchen. The statement bedroom is a true highlight, with soaring high ceilings and a grand bay window creating a sense of grandeur rarely found in apartments. A contemporary shower room completes the accommodation, while the current owner has taken care to reinstate many period details, further enhancing the property’s character.

Externally, the property is surrounded by attractive, well-kept herbaceous gardens, with seating areas that allow residents to enjoy the peaceful setting. Secure allocated parking is provided behind electric gates, offering both convenience and reassurance. Positioned on North Road, just outside of St Helens Town Centre, the apartment is ideally located for access to a wealth of local amenities. The beautiful Victoria Park is only a short distance away, and excellent commuter links via the A580 make travel further afield simple and efficient.

This is a truly unique property that perfectly blends history, charm, and modern style, making it an ideal choice for those seeking something special close to the heart of St Helens.
