About Sundial Place
Development Overview Sundial Place is a new build homes development located off Thorn Tree Drive and Lydiate Lane in the established village of Thornton, Liverpool, Merseyside (L23 1AE). The development, currently offering a limited number of final new homes, is overseen by Barratt Homes. Barratt is a national housebuilder with a notable track record, holding the maximum 5 Star rating from the Home Builders Federation (HBF) for 15 consecutive years, based on over 90% of customers stating they would recommend the builder to a friend.
Sundial Place and the adjacent David Wilson Homes (DWH) plots present a collection of energy-efficient 2, 3, and 4 bedroom freehold houses. The development is situated to leverage the semi-rural location of Thornton, providing access to local amenities while maintaining excellent commuter links to Liverpool City Centre and the wider North West. Current new build prices at the wider site range from approximately £225,000 to £470,000. Property Details The remaining new build homes offer a selection of layouts designed for modern living. Specific available house styles include two-bedroom end-of-terrace options, such as the 'WILFORD' house type, with starting prices from £225,000. Families can select from three and four-bedroom properties, with models like the semi-detached 'ARCHFORD' (3-bed) available from approximately £270,000, and the four-bedroom 'THOMAS' or 'Elm' styles available from approximately £267,995. These properties typically feature open-plan living/dining spaces, modern kitchens, and benefit from the efficiencies inherent in new build construction. The final properties are approaching completion, and interested parties should contact the sales team for a precise specification list and to confirm which plots are ready for immediate occupation. Location Benefits and Transport Links Sundial Place offers strong connectivity for commuters. Old Roan Railway Station, situated approximately 1.8 miles from the development, provides regular Merseyrail services, with a journey time to Liverpool Central Station averaging 19 to 21 minutes. Road connectivity is facilitated by the nearby A565 and the A5758 Broom's Cross Road, a key bypass that allows for faster access to the motorway network at the Switch Island interchange (connecting to the M57 and M58). Local amenities are accessible, including the Thornton PCT Practice (0.6 miles) and Thornton Dental Practice (0.5 miles). Educational facilities include Newfield School, which is within a 12-minute walk. For leisure, the development is close to the historic local public house, The Grapes on Green Lane, and offers a short drive to the natural attractions of Crosby Beach, Formby Beach, and the Formby Nature Reserve. Practical Information Given the high completion rate—with the original Barratt Homes site reported as sold out and availability concentrated on the immediate adjacent site—interested buyers are strongly advised to secure viewing appointments for the final available plots promptly. Pricing is dependent on the specific house type, plot number, and stage of construction; prospective buyers should contact the sales office directly for the latest availability and current pricing on specific models like the 'WILFORD' or 'ARCHFORD'. Various purchase assistance schemes, including the Key Worker Scheme and Part Exchange, may be available, subject to developer terms and individual eligibility.
