A rare period semi in Formby offered with an adjoining building plot and outline planning for a five‑bedroom detached house (Sefton Ref DC/2024/02054). The main house is spacious (approx. 2,085 sq ft) with high ceilings, large bay‑fronted lounge, separate dining room, conservatory and two garages. Privacy is strong thanks to a tree‑lined side approach and generous driveway providing off‑street parking for several cars.
The house is clearly a character family home: three double bedrooms, an unusually large shower room and generous reception spaces that suit family living now. The mature, extensive gardens have already attracted planning consent to be sectioned, enabling you to live in the main house while overseeing the new build — an attractive option for someone wanting a long‑term project or to create two high‑value properties on one plot.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the property dates from the early 20th century with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and double glazing of unknown age. There is a single main bathroom (large shower room) and some original features will need updating to modern standards. The garden will be subdivided if the planning permission is implemented, reducing private garden size for the existing house.
This is a good fit for families who value space and schools nearby, or for buyers seeking a development opportunity in a very affluent, low‑crime neighbourhood. The sale is offered freehold and chain‑free, which simplifies a purchase that combines immediate family occupation with a staged build project.
