Property description

The epitome of the archetypal family home, it is hard to imagine any expanding family outgrowing this fabulous individual five bed detached dormer bungalow, offering seemingly endless levels of space extending to in excess of 1,900 square feet. The outside spaces marry perfectly with the interior, with the property boasting open countryside views to both the front and rear elevations, as well as a quite superb plot, affording sizeable gardens, with the rear being a particular horticultural treat; a calming oasis where one can relax away the stresses of the day. The property is conveniently situated in a semi-rural location between the districts of Downholland and Lydiate, providing a picturesque retreat from the hustle and bustle of the town, yet without the drawbacks of being isolated, being within easy reach of the historical market town of Ormskirk, and its diverse range of boutique and high street stores, trendy bars and eclectic eateries. Excellent schools are also on hand, which is always an important consideration with any home of this type, as well as superb transport links, with the M58 motorway only a short drive away.

One enters the property via the entrance porch and into the sizeable and most welcoming reception hallway with its Oak spindled staircase to the first floor, and immediately senses the warm and inviting ambiance which pervades throughout the accommodation, and this feeling only intensifies as one continues into the beautiful 15’ lounge, which is bathed in natural light via the large picture window to the front elevation, whilst the fabulous feature fireplace is a beautiful focal point, complete with its rustic Oak surround, decorative tiling and inset cast iron fire. 

The 20’ open plan kitchen/diner has a real hub of the home feel and is ideally suited to modern day family living, a wonderfully sociable environment in which to host those family meals or when one is entertaining friends, with the nominated chef for the evening not needing to be excluded from the fun; fitted with an extensive range of country-style wall and base units in cream with complimentary wooden work surfaces and benefitting from a traditional Belfast sink and an integrated electric oven and halogen hob with extractor canopy. The super layout lends itself perfectly to entertaining, with guests able to move from the dinner table through into the 13’ conservatory for an after-dinner cocktail or two, a perfect space in which to relax and recline whilst savouring the pretty view over the rear garden and the countryside beyond. 

Three of the five well proportioned bedrooms are located to the ground floor, providing fantastic flexibility for the accommodation to be utilised to one’s individual requirements, such as the creation of a formal dining room, a study for those requiring some space to work from home, or perhaps a playroom for the young ones, whilst there is also a smart three piece bathroom, fitted with a contemporary three piece suite in classic white, comprising of pedestal wash hand basin, panelled bath with shower attachment and separate WC. If one ventures up to the first floor, the lovely galleried landing has ample storage facilities and provides access to two supremely spacious 18’ bedrooms, both of which enjoy dual aspect windows affording stunning views over the surrounding countryside, with the master bedroom boasting a walk-in wardrobe, which cannot fail to impress the lady of the house. 

The accommodation is completed by a beautifully appointed shower room, which is fitted with a modern three piece suite in classic white, comprising of close coupled WC, vanity wash hand basin and shower cubicle with electric shower. 

Externally, the stunning gardens cannot fail to impress even the most fastidious of green-fingered buyers, with the rear being worthy of special mention, with expansive lawns, established borders and mature hedges, and an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion. The large block-paved patio area will be a perfect spot for a glass of wine or two after a stressful day in the office, or perhaps those impromptu barbeques when the weather allows, whilst there is ample off-road parking facilities available on the driveway, which also gives access to the detached single garage. We would highly recommend an internal inspection of this beautiful home to appreciate the size and location
