Church House, Green Lane, Formby

A landmark residence of exceptional historical significance, Church House is one of Formby's oldest and most distinguished homes, occupying a prominent position directly opposite St Peter's Church in the heart of this sought-after village.

Originally dating back to 1847, part of the property served as one of Formby's earliest inns, welcoming travellers arriving by horse and cart. The house was later expanded and subsequently became the original vicarage before assuming its present name, Church House. Today, it stands as a remarkable testament to Formby's rich heritage, with generations of local residents recognising and admiring this iconic home.

Set within magnificent grounds extending to well over an acre, the property enjoys mature woodland gardens with glorious south and west-facing aspects. Enclosed by substantial brick walls and surrounded by established trees, the grounds offer a rare sense of privacy and seclusion whilst remaining within easy reach of the village centre. The gardens are renowned for their abundant wildlife, including Formby's famous red squirrels, creating a setting of remarkable natural beauty.

The accommodation extends to approximately six/seven bedrooms and retains an abundance of original features, period detailing and architectural character throughout. A grand entrance porch opens into an impressive reception hall, whilst the original inn now forms part of a magnificent dining hall that lies at the heart of the home. Elegant reception rooms include a formal dining room with open fireplace and dual-aspect views across the gardens, a snooker room, study and additional sitting room. The farmhouse kitchen and dining room provides a warm and welcoming family space, with beautiful Victorian sash windows framing the surrounding grounds.

To the first floor, the principal suite enjoys dual-aspect views together with a dressing room and spacious shower room. A further guest suite, four additional double bedrooms, an occasional seventh bedroom and two family bathrooms provide extensive accommodation ideally suited to modern family living.

Outside, the gardens wrap around the residence, comprising expansive lawns, mature specimen trees and enchanting woodland areas. Additional grounds extend towards Cricket Path and include a potting shed, substantial driveway, double garages and workshop.

Owned and lovingly cared for by the same family for more than forty years, Church House represents a genuinely rare opportunity to acquire one of Formby's most historic and admired residences. Combining period grandeur, fascinating provenance and exceptional grounds, this is a home of enduring quality and significance, ready to be enjoyed by the next generation.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire one of Formby's finest period homes.
