This £1.7 million mansion hasn't found a buyer in six years

A home on one of Merseyside's most desirable streets has been up for sale for more than six years without finding anyone who wants to buy it, this might look crazy but let me explain...

The five-bedroom house has been on the market since February 2013 but still hasn't found a buyer, making it one of the longest-running listings in the region.

Located on Shireburn Road in Freshfield, the luxury detached home is nestled in one of Merseyside's most sought-after areas.

Immaculately presented, perfectly located and boasting some stunning gardens, making it seem to don’t be any reason the property just can't seem to sell.

With an asking price of £1,700,000, the property is well above the average house price on Merseyside - but it's not an extraordinary price tag in such an exclusive area.

According to property website Zoopla's price index, the average current value of a home on Shireburn Road is hovering around the £1.7 million mark - suggesting this listing must be perfectly priced

On the market with Colette Gunter, photos taken inside the home show no reason for it not to find a buyer - with five en-suite bathrooms and three entertaining rooms.

A stunning SieMatic kitchen comes with an impressive central island and leads out onto an open-plan family room.

The Victorian-style detached home is spread over three floors and was built by Crosby Homes, being completed in 2004.

Set in one of the most prestigious roads in Freshfield , close to Formby Golf Club and the Pinewoods, it's an ideal location for house hunters looking for a secluded family home.

Despite it's many appealing features and enviable location, this property hasn't found the right buyer yet - but it's certainly far from the most unloved property on the market.
