Beautifully updated and ready to move into, 56 St Helens Road is a spacious three-bedroom detached home in Ormskirk. The refurbishment is comprehensive: full re-plastering, new kitchen, stylish four-piece bathroom, full rewire, new boiler and radiators, new windows and bifold doors, plus new flooring throughout. The result is bright, contemporary living with a large open-plan kitchen/diner that flows to an extensive rear garden via bi-fold doors.
This property will suit families and downsizers who want a low-maintenance, turnkey home within walking distance of town, good local shops, and transport links. The house sits on a generous plot with a wide in-and-out driveway, garage, and outbuildings, giving plenty of parking and useful storage. There is also scope to extend the footprint further, subject to planning permission, making it attractive for buyers wanting future value-add potential.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property appears to have cavity walls with no installed insulation (assumed), which could be a consideration for energy efficiency improvements. The immediate area records above-average crime levels compared with national averages. While several nearby primary schools are rated Good, two local secondary providers currently have lower Ofsted grades — worth checking if school catchment is a priority.
Overall, this freehold home offers a rare combination of large living space (approximately 1,445 sq ft), modern systems, and a prime town-facing location. It’s a ready-made family home with room to grow, sensible for anyone seeking a move-in ready property with scope to customise further.
