Revamped home on street where properties sell for £1m

An 'immaculate' home which has been fully refurbished has gone on the market with a price tag that's almost half the eye-watering £1.1m average for the area.

The detached property is on Timms Lane in Formby, within walking distance of Freshfields railway station, the National Trust woodland and squirrel park, and the stunning beach.

It boasts five bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms, as well as secluded gardens to the front and rear.
