Chestnut Avenue, Moor Park, L23

What can we say other than WOW! It’s a rarity that a property of this grandeur comes to the market, and we are absolutely DELIGHTED to introduce you to ‘Rostrevor’, on Chestnut Avenue, Moor Park. This stunning five-bedroom detached residence sits on a huge plot, seamlessly blending timeless charm with modern luxury. With an additional self-contained one-bedroom coach house, this home offers versatility, space, and exclusivity—perfect for families seeking something truly special.

Effectively we are offering the footprint of three houses in one here! The history is fascinating - dating to 1898, John Coulton, a diamond merchant, bought the whole Moor Park estate from the Blundell family in 1904. He built ‘Rostrevor’ for himself, and set up covenants for the estate such as only selling the plots to Doctors, or as they put it, to a ‘duly qualified practitioner of medicine or surgery’. He also wrote covenants that ‘Rostrevor’ was not to be overlooked and the streets were to be tree-lined. When he built this house he had it as three separate buildings, the house, the stable and the Coach House. In fact, bedroom 6 on the mezzanine level still has the evidence of the fireplace which kept the stable boy warm when he slept! When the vendors converted the Coach House they put in a spiral staircase, a nod to the original.

As you arrive, a gated driveway leads through to the property, with an additional set of gates opening onto a secluded private courtyard—a peaceful suntrap and the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee.

Inside, the grand entrance hallway also serves as a dining area, complete with a working fireplace. The ground floor boasts a charming sitting room, a bright office/sunroom, and the extended rear wing, which was originally a stable. Now thoughtfully converted, it offers a stunning open-plan dining and living space and a kitchen, providing the ultimate setting for family life and entertaining. There is also a utility room and a WC.

Upstairs, the first floor is home to five well-sized double bedrooms, including a truly expansive master suite. This incredible space features a private en-suite bathroom, creating a luxurious retreat. A stylish family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

One of the most unique features of this home is the self-contained annex—a building steeped in history, once used as the sleeping quarters for a stable boy. Now fully renovated, it provides independent living, complete with a lounge, kitchen, shower room, and an upstairs mezzanine-level bedroom. Whether used as a guest suite or home office, this space offers incredible flexibility.

To the rear, a vast garden provides unparalleled outdoor space. Whether you’re relaxing and listening to birdsong or hosting guests on warm summer evenings, this outdoor haven is perfect for making memories.

Located in one of Crosby’s most sought-after addresses, this home offers the best of seaside living and city convenience. With beautiful coastal walks, highly regarded schools, and independent shops, cafés, and restaurants all nearby, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional home in a prime location. For sale with NO CHAIN!

A note from the seller: “The courtyard has got to be the feature we will miss the most about this home. We love sitting out there, it’s such a calming space.”
