The Property

BUILDING PLOT – Rare Development Opportunity to Acquire a Building Plot with Outline Planning permission for a Stunning Five-Bedroom Detached Home - Reference Number - DC/ 2024/ 01884 - Sefton Council

A rare and exciting opportunity to invest in a unique residential plot located on the desirable Salford Road in Southport. This spacious site comes with approved planning permission for the construction of a luxurious, architect-designed five-bedroom detached family home, offering a truly individual and contemporary living experience. The plot is 9 metres wide and approximately 35 metres long. For reference the current property at number 8 Salford Road next door is only 6 metres wide, wereas the proposed property is 7 metres wide and allows for alleyways on either side of 1 metre each.

Set within a peaceful and established setting, this represents the perfect canvas to build a bespoke home tailored to your requirements. Whether you're a self-builder, developer, or family seeking a dream forever home, this is a chance to create something special.

The approved plans propose a beautifully designed layout comprising, on the ground floor: a welcoming entrance hall, a cloakroom with W.C., a comfortable snug for quiet moments, and a spacious open-plan kitchen/living/dining area – the heart of the home – ideal for modern family life and entertaining. A separate utility room adds further practicality.

To the first floor, are four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. On the second floor, a generous master/guest bedroom is planned, complete with an en suite.

Externally, the proposal includes driveway parking for 2 or 3 cars to the front and a good sized private rear garden approximately 20 metres long and 9 metres wide, ensuring ample space for outdoor living, parking, and storage.

Located within easy reach of Ainsdale and Southport’s amenities, schools, transport links, and stunning coastline, yet surrounded by open green spaces.
