Rare opportunity to acquire this substantial detached property with a variety of potential uses (subject to necessary consents) extending to 3,843sqft (357sqm) and including 7 bedrooms in the main house (4 en-suite) and an attached 2 bedroom annexe this would be a fantastic family home for someone with teenage children or elderly relatives, could be converted into an income generating HMO/AirBnB or possibly a small care home/bed & breakfast or golfing break business.
Situation & Description
Blackpool is an iconic seaside resort town on the north west coast of England offering excellent transport links to Manchester and Liverpool - both around 1 hour drive away. The house is located on the eastern outskirts of Blackpool within easy access of Junction 4 of the M55 motorway and enjoys an enviable position 5 miles from Royal Lytham St Anne's Golf Course - the venue of 11 x Open Championships and 2 x Ryder Cups.
Blackpool airport is 4 miles away so again, it would work extremely well for letting to airport staff or as a holiday let for larger groups.
The town centre is a short drive away and offers a vast array of national and local independent retailers, shops, bars, restaurants and cafes as well as having an excellent selection of local primary and secondary schools with a wide range of leisure facilities and green spaces nearby.
In our opinion the house offers an incoming buyer multiple options whether it be for a large family dwelling, an income generating investment or possibly a small business - buyers are advised to carry out their own due diligence as to the suitability and viability of any change of use to the existing property.
The accommodation extends to 3,843sqft (357sqm) and comprises:
Main House:
Ground Floor: Porch, Entrance Hall, Living Room into Sun Room, Kitchen Dining Room, Utility and downstairs WC
First Floor: 3 x Double Bedrooms and 2 x En-Suite Bathrooms, Recording Studio with sound booth (formerly Bedroom 4)
Second Floor: 3 x Double Bedrooms and 3 x Bathrooms (2 x En-Suite)
Annexe:
Ground Floor: Entrance Hall, 2 x Double Bedrooms (both En-Suite), Living Room and Kitchen/Dining Room
Outside to the rear is a paved patio and low maintenance lawn with parking for several cars to the front.

†Traditional auction
Exchange occurs at the end of the auction. This means that if the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, the successful bidder is legally obliged to pay the purchase price and the seller will be legally obliged to sell the property. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the buyer is automatically charged a holding deposit, which is held in a secure client account, pursuant to the terms of a holding deposit agreement.
* Pricing Information
The Guide Price amount specified is an indication of each seller's minimum expectation. It is not necessarily the amount at which the property will sell. Each property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the property will not be sold) which we expect will be set no more than 10% above the Guide Price amount.
