This rare Freehold building plot in Formby extends to approximately 0.40 acres (21m x 82m) and comes with planning permission already granted. Buyers can choose between two approved designs: a traditional classic detached house of about 5,800 sq ft or a contemporary Grand Designs-style detached house of about 4,400 sq ft. Full plans are available for review.
The site faces west, offering a sunny rear garden and substantial outdoor space suitable for family living, landscaping or leisure. The location sits in an affluent suburb with very low crime, good local schools (including several Ofsted-rated Good options), and convenient road and rail links to Liverpool and Southport.
Important practical points: the plot is sold as land only, so construction, costs and timelines are the buyer’s responsibility. Services, build specification and final finishes will need confirmation; broadband speeds are reported as slow and mobile signal is average. There is no flood risk and the title is Freehold.
This opportunity suits buyers wanting to commission a large, bespoke family home or developers seeking a prestige plot with planning in place. The scale, orientation and planning consent reduce early-stage risk, but purchasers should budget for full construction and contingency costs.
