A beautiful historic home with its own 40-foot swimming pool has come to the market for the first time in more than half a century.
The sizeable five bedroom property is located on a suburban seaside street where homes are rarely for sale. The rare gem sits on a ‘picturesque’ lot on Mossgiel Avenue in Ainsdale, where the last neighboring lot was sold in 2013.
In addition to three bathrooms and its own pond, it also has a detached barn and a garden room with a huge indoor pool. The house was occupied by the same family and guests are greeted through decorative iron gates onto a sweeping gravel driveway to enjoy the majesty of the double walled historic home

On the ground floor there is a living room with a bay window and another huge kitchen, living and dining area that runs the length of the house. Decor needs updating, but original features like ornate coves and large windows add a charming touch to the home, reports ECHO.
The huge kitchen offers plenty of storage space and a breakfast bar for additional seating. The room continues to the garden room where the pool is located.
A shower room and utility room make up the remainder of the ground floor. Upstairs are five good sized bedrooms and a family bathroom with quirky burgundy patterned tiles.
