Set in a peaceful country lane on the edge of Burscough, this two-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers expansive farmland views and a rare, very large plot. The layout includes two reception rooms, a conservatory, and driveway parking for multiple vehicles, plus a detached double garage and useful outbuildings. The house will appeal to buyers seeking rural calm and space close to village amenities.
The property requires renovation and modernisation throughout, giving a clear opportunity to reconfigure rooms and improve energy performance (cavity walls assumed uninsulated). Heating is by an LPG boiler and radiators; double glazing is present but install date is unknown. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average — important for anyone who needs reliable connectivity at home.
Externally there is an enclosed rear courtyard with uninterrupted views towards Martin Mere, a greenhouse, workshop and a detached double garage. An additional 0.84 acres (0.34 ha) of land with mature trees and a wildlife pond is available by separate negotiation — ideal for hobby farming, equestrian use or extensive gardens, subject to any necessary consents.
This cottage suits buyers downsizing from larger homes or those wanting a countryside base willing to carry out improvement work. Be prepared for renovation costs and potential upgrades to insulation, electrics and heating to bring the property up to modern standards.
