Mystery price tag on 'outstanding' incomplete mansion on the market

An ‘outstanding’ Georgian-style house is up for sale in Merseyside, but there’s a slight catch.

The seven bedroom property, on Well Lane, Heswall, has been built but it is not yet finished.

Set on two acres of land it could provide the buyer with the chance to complete the project in their own style.

Or the plot could provide further ‘ development opportunities ’, as there is enough space for a further two detached houses either side of the new build.

Highlights of the property include the ‘premier location’, detached garage with apartments above and gardens that feature a full tennis.

With price on asking, it’s unclear how much the grand property will be sold for.

However Rightmove’s market information can give those interested an idea of how many similar properties in the area are listed for.

A seven bedroom detached house on Dee Park Road, Gayton is currently up for sale for £1,100,000.

While just one mile away another similar property is listed for £2,000,000.

Overall in Heswall sale prices are up 7% on the previous year at an average of £366,455.

The majority of sales in Heswall during the last year were semi-detached properties, selling for an average price of £263,555.

Detached properties sold for an average of £510,334, with flats fetching £203,583.

Images on Rightmove show that despite being unfinished the property still has ‘stunning’ Georgian features.

The main residence is set over 6500sq ft and boasts three floors of ‘luxury.’

The ground floor benefits from a large entrance hall and four reception rooms, including a music room, snug and drawing room.

At the back of the property overlooking the green landscaped grounds is a large kitchen and dining area that already has some of the units fitted.

The first floor has a master bedroom suite with an en-suite bathroom and dressing room or walk-in wardrobe.

A second bedroom also features a dressing room and ensuite while the remaining two bedrooms on this level share a family bathroom.

To the second floor there are two further double bedrooms and a playroom that could be transformed into a cinema.

If the property wasn’t already big enough, the detached garage has further apartment space above.

It’s described as being ‘ideal for guests’ or for those who’d like an annex for family.

The Karl Tatler listing reads: “Set in one of Lower Heswall’s most sought after locations, this unique opportunity presents itself to the buyer.

“You could live in the current home across two acres and have a stunning family home or you could take advantage of a rare development opportunity in Lower Heswall.

“The plot provides options for a further two detached homes to either side of the new build home.

“The new build home itself would provide a re-development opportunity for multiple homes.

“Previous planning exists and further information is available on request.”

It is being offered for sale by informal tender with a closing date of the August 6, 2021.
