Description

Berkeley Shaw Real Estate present this detached four-bedroom bungalow. Located in the village of Melling, on the boarder of Aughton, this home boasts expansive gardens and grounds extending to 2.75 acres and has planning permitted granted for two additional properties. Prescot Road boasts two Michelin star restaurants, Moor Hall and The Barn and is located only three minutes from Mossock Hall Golf Club.

Offering substantial outside space, the property includes outbuildings and benefits from planning granted, making it particularly suitable as a renovation project or for builders seeking a site with clear development potential. The first granted planning application on the current bungalow is for the erection of a two storey extension to the front, dormer extensions to the front and rear including a rooflight to the front and an extension incorporating a garage to the side of the dwellinghouse.

The second granted planning application is for the erection of two detached dwellings following the demolition of existing outbuildings and associated works. Two thoughtfully designed detached family homes can soon stand proudly on this generous plot, bringing together contemporary architecture, practical design, and everyday comfort. Each property will offer approximately 2,300 square feet, carefully planned to meet the needs of modern living.

Further details can be found on the granted planning applications below;
