Move-in ready single-storey home on a large plot near top schools and transport links.
Detached true bungalow with three bedrooms
Situated on desirable St. James Road in Orrell, this detached true bungalow has been recently renovated and offers comfortable single-storey living for families or downsizers. The accommodation includes a generous lounge, three bedrooms, a modern fitted kitchen and a striking four-piece bathroom suite, all presented move-in ready. A wide driveway leads to a double garage and the large plot includes a lawned front garden and a tiled rear patio, providing low-maintenance outdoor space and ample parking.
The location will appeal to families: highly regarded primary and secondary schools are within the local catchment, independent shops and village amenities are walkable, and regular public transport links and a nearby train station connect to Wigan, St Helens and Manchester. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, newer UPVC double glazing and a filled cavity wall construction from its late-20th-century build.
Buyers should note a few material points: the bungalow has only one bathroom for three bedrooms, ceiling heights are generally lower than modern new-builds, and the EPC rating is D which may require future energy-efficiency improvements. Although newly refurbished throughout, the mid-1970s to early-1980s construction means some long-term maintenance or modernisation may be considered over time.
Offered freehold and chain-free, this bungalow presents a rare single-storey opportunity in a very low-crime, affluent suburb with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. It’s ideal for those seeking accessible, ready-to-live accommodation with scope to personalise and add value in a strong local market.
