Description

For sale by Under the Hammer online auction on Wednesday 16th September 2026. Head over to our website to download the legal pack, register to bid and see more information.

Vacant freehold land approximately 3.98 acres in Flimby occupying a striking stretch of Cumbrian coastline and offered with clear longer-term potential, subject to the necessary consents. This is a parcel of land rather than conventional residential accommodation, with its appeal centred on the coastal position, open outlook and the opportunities the site may offer for future plans, subject to all required investigations and consents.

Set along the shoreline, the land enjoys a dramatic seafront setting with far-reaching coastal aspects, a strong sense of openness and direct connection to the beach and foreshore.

The combination of vacant freehold ownership and an eye-catching beachfront position makes this a distinctive opportunity, particularly for developers seeking a coastal landholding with potential for future use or enhancement, subject to the necessary consents.

Flimby is a coastal village in Cumbria with the sea quite literally on the doorstep here, giving the site an immediately recognisable setting and a strong connection to the wider shoreline. The surrounding area is defined by its open coastal landscape, making this an appealing position for a site with a genuine sense of place and a memorable setting on the Cumbrian coast.

Altogether, this is a rare chance to acquire freehold coastal land in a standout beachfront position with scope for future consideration, subject to all necessary consents.
