This striking windmill conversion is a five-bedroom family home which has panoramic views across the Lancashire countryside.

Located near Ormskirk and Southport, it comes with 2.3 acres of garden and paddock.

This windmill conversion is on sale for offers over £850,000 and is marketed by Armitstead Barnett via OnTheMarket.

With accommodation laid out over six floors and the potential to convert the seventh floor (subject to planning), the property has a unique character and charm. As well as the five bedrooms, the property has two reception rooms, a living/dining kitchen area, utility room, and three bath/shower rooms.

The windmill represents a stunning example of a Tower Windmill of brick construction, with a boat-shaped wooden cap. The property is thought to have been constructed in the 18th century but converted into a residential home during the mid to late 1980s.

The land includes a double garage, as well as an integral single garage within the windmill itself. The spectacular property also boasts panoramic views over the local area, and West Lancashire countryside.
