A spacious three-bedroom 1930s semi-detached home on Graburn Road, set on a generous plot with an extensive rear garden. Period features — bay windows, original wooden floors and a fireplace — give the house character while the well-proportioned lounge-diner and kitchen provide practical family living space. The large garden, summer house with power, vegetable patch and garage add outdoor and storage value.
The property is offered freehold and in generally good order but presents clear scope for modernisation and potential extension (subject to planning). Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed though installation dates are unknown. Cavity walls are original and assumed uninsulated, so buyers should consider energy-improvement works.
Location is a major selling point: quiet, affluent neighbourhood a short walk from Formby village amenities, excellent schools nearby and convenient public transport including Freshfield station. Off-road parking and a garage provide practical access for families.
Practical negatives are straightforward: a single family bathroom, potential thermal inefficiency from older cavity walls, and some rooms and finishes that will benefit from updating. The layout suits a growing family but those wanting a fully modern, turn-key home should budget for refurbishment.
