Land for sale

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create your own grand designs style home. Full planning permission has been granted by St Helens Council (P/2021/1018/Ful) for the restoration and extension to refurbish and adapt a local landmark into one of the area’s most distinctive homes. The overall plot will be circa 1/3rd of an acre and nestled in one of Eccleston’s most sought-after locations. The old mill is the sole surviving part of a 19th-century clay land tile works that served the adjacent major landowning estate of the Earl of Derby. A building of both architectural and historical interest, it is described in planning terms as a ‘heritage asset’. Nestled within lush green-belt surroundings, opportunities like this are incredibly rare. The Kiln House is one of two plots which are for sale and can be purchased jointly or separately. The property is situated down Clay Lane a few moments from the centre of Eccleston, the East Lancs. Road and the M57 motorway junction at Prescot meaning that it will be situated in a fabulous position for commuters who will be mere moments away from major transport links whilst enjoying all the benefits of a rural and tranquil setting. The property will be approached via a long sweeping driveway and this generously sized plot is surrounded by beautiful homes, equestrian facilities and greenbelt countryside. The design is unique and maximises the restored features of this incredible home with a mix of contemporary features and historic elements. The design, which features restoring the original chimney and adding architectural glazing which will help to create a seamless link between the old and the new, creates a bright and inviting living space that has been designed to make the most of the surrounding views. Included within the plans is permission to construct a detached double garage which is detailed on the CGI images. The existing agricultural buildings, currently being used for equestrian activities, will be removed from the site. This is part of the redevelopment plan for the mill which includes the construction of a new house (The Tile House). However, the paddocks and the existing menage will be retained to enhance the setting even further. For further details and to arrange a site visit please contact our land and new team.
