Situated in an idyllic location on the fringes of Natural England’s Ribble estuary nature reserve and just over a mile from Banks village centre, the sale offers immense possibilities for residential, commercial, or mixed-use development, subject to obtaining all necessary permissions.

Spanning approximately 0.85 hectares (2 acres) or thereabouts, the site encompasses the existing residential cottage, along with a collection of outbuildings and associated land including a large service yard and beautiful gardens with a lake and a brick built summerhouse. The outbuildings include a 540 sq ft garage, an 8500 sq ft barn with office space, breakout area and storage rooms and a further detached barn with a total of 1850 square feet.

This flexibility opens up opportunities for local and mid-sized developers to explore and capitalise on the site’s potential.
