Retirees and downsizers looking to make the most of Formby’s coastal lifestyle are invited to discover The Grange, a new Morris Homes development offering low-maintenance homes close to some of the area’s best-loved beaches, nature reserves and local amenities.
With recent research* highlighting the positive correlation between exposure to outdoor blue spaces, improved mental wellbeing and increased physical activity, set on England’s west coast, with sandy beaches, coastal boardwalks and green spaces nearby, The Grange has been designed for buyers seeking a more relaxed lifestyle while staying connected to the local community.
The development offers a collection of apartments and two-bedroom homes suited to retirees, downsizers and those looking for a manageable home in one of Merseyside’s most desirable coastal locations.
