This newly built four-bedroom detached home, The Scrivener, is designed for families seeking modern, low-maintenance living. The heart of the house is a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and family area with French doors onto the rear garden, plus a separate living room with a feature bay window. Bedroom 1 has an en-suite and there’s a handy utility room and understairs storage for everyday practicality.
As a new build the property benefits from a 10-year NHBC Buildmark policy and energy-efficient construction, which should lower running costs and maintenance in the early years. The internal layout (around 1,197 sq ft) provides flexible room use — children’s bedrooms, a home office or a small gym are all possible. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Practical considerations include an estate management charge of £111 per year and council tax banding is yet to be confirmed. The local area has higher-than-average crime levels, which may be a concern for some buyers. Nearby schools are mixed in performance: some rated Good, but one primary requires improvement and one secondary is rated Inadequate — check individual school distances and latest Ofsted reports.
Location is suburban with green spaces nearby and is about 3.5 miles from Ormskirk town centre, offering local shops, leisure attractions and transport links. The home is chain-free and move-in ready, suitable for growing families wanting modern layouts and minimal immediate refurbishment.
