Lord Sefton Way, Great Altcar, L37 5AB
A CHARMING SEMI-DETACHED COTTAGE OCCUPYING A BEAUTIFUL SEMI-RURAL POSITION on the edge of Formby, enjoying open aspects across surrounding farmland and countryside.
Dating back to the 1920s, the property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a character home with GENEROUS GARDENS, established trees and enormous potential for renovation, extension and reconfiguration, subject to the necessary consents.
The setting is undoubtedly one of the property’s strongest features. Tucked away within Great Altcar, the cottage enjoys a peaceful and rural atmosphere whilst still remaining conveniently accessible for Formby, local amenities and transport links. The mature willow tree, open views and established plot create a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity.
The accommodation would now benefit from a programme of modernisation and improvement, presenting buyers with the opportunity to create a bespoke home tailored to their own tastes and requirements. The layout currently comprises a PORCH opening into the ENTRANCE HALL, FRONT LOUNGE, KITCHEN and a ground floor BATHROOM.
To the first floor there are THREE BEDROOMS, all enjoying pleasant views over the surrounding landscape and gardens.
Externally, the plot offers excellent potential and flexibility. The gardens wrap around the property and provide extensive lawned areas, mature planting, patio space and ample room for future landscaping or extension works. There is OFF-ROAD PARKING for several vehicles together with a garage.
The property is offered for sale with NO ONWARD CHAIN.
Please note, the property lies within a CONSERVATION AREA and any future extensions or external alterations are likely to require formal planning consent from West Lancashire Council.
