About this home
An Exceptional Victorian Residence on Wicks Lane, Formby…….
Set behind gates on one of Formby’s most prestigious and sought-after roads, this striking five-bedroom detached Victorian residence occupies a magnificent half-acre plot, beautifully enveloped by established, manicured gardens. From the moment of arrival, the home commands attention, with a stunning and symmetrical Victorian façade, an elegant in-and-out driveway, and a traditional Victorian lamp lending an immediate sense of grandeur and occasion.
Rich in period architecture and original ornate features, the property has been sympathetically restored and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, creating a rare blend of historic charm and refined modern living. High ceilings, detailed cornicing, and characterful proportions flow throughout, reflecting the quality and craftsmanship of the Victorian era.
The ground floor offers an impressive array of versatile living spaces, including three elegant reception rooms, ideal for both formal entertaining and relaxed family life. A beautiful traditional country-style kitchen sits at the heart of the home, complemented by a dining area, conservatory, laundry room, and a ground floor W.C.
To the first floor are four generously proportioned bedrooms, served by a family bathroom. The principal suite is particularly noteworthy, featuring a luxurious and expansive en-suite bathroom complete with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, and his-and-hers wash basins.
The upper floors provide further flexibility, with a fifth bedroom currently utilised as a home office, and two additional spacious loft rooms on the top floor, currently used as bedrooms, offering ideal accommodation for guests, teenagers, or creative space.
Externally, the property is wrapped in beautifully landscaped gardens that provide privacy, tranquillity, and a wonderful sense of space, all set within approximately half an acre. A substantial detached double garage sits discreetly within
the grounds and, subject to the appropriate planning permissions, offers excellent potential to create an annexe or additional accommodation.
Private, elegant, and rich in character, this is a truly outstanding home in one of Formby’s most desirable locations.
