This utterly charming thatched cottage would not look out of place on a picture postcard and the property is positively overflowing with character and charm. The idyllic setting feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, yet is perfectly situated for ease of access to the abundance of shops and amenities in the thriving village of Formby. The location is a stone’s throw from the pretty countryside of West Lancashire - giving a real feeling of rural living, yet is far from remote, with excellent local schooling at all levels close by and the motorway and rail network on hand, ensuring a convenient commute throughout the North-West.

‘Thatchings’ is the epitome of the country home, offering warm and inviting living spaces with a pleasing blend of neutral tones and a real cosy ambiance throughout, whilst delightful character features are in abundance. The residence occupies two of the three original cottages and therefore provides a surprisingly substantial amount of living space with a floor plan covering over 2060 square feet. 

Accommodation highlights include an entrance hallway, lounge, a large dining room

(with feature range fireplace), a delightful breakfast kitchen (which is fitted with a range of Shaker style wall and base units in cream with contrasting work surfaces and tiled splashbacks, and features an integrated double electric oven, Belling halogen hob with extractor over, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer), pantry area (with wall and base units, two integrated fridge/freezers), utility room/cloaks/wc, and on the first floor one can find three bedrooms, a contemporary en-suite (comprising of low level wc, vanity wash hand basin unit and shower cubicle) an a modern family bathroom

(comprising of low level wc, panelled bath with shower over and wash hand basin). 

The outside spaces are just as delightful with the property resting amongst a verdant backdrop of mature trees and bushes. The pretty approach via a small bridge really sets the tone and viewers will delight in the size of the plot, the privacy and lovely well-kept gardens. To the front and side elevations there is extensive parking on the block paved driveway and access to a large detached double garage (with electrics and hot and cold water). The rear garden has lawns and a patio area for enjoying the sunny Westerly aspects.
