Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this four-bedroom detached dormer bungalow sits on a generous corner plot and blends comfortable modern living with semi-rural tranquillity. The ground floor offers open-plan living — a living room that flows into a dining kitchen fitted with modern appliances — plus three double bedrooms and two bathrooms, ideal for family life and hosting. A fixed staircase leads to the first-floor master suite with dressing room and some reduced head height from the roof pitch.
Outside provides strong practical value: a detached garage with remote roll-shutter door, ample hard-surface parking suitable for multiple cars, a caravan or motorhome, and scope to add a garden studio (STPP). The rear garden combines paved patio, hard surfaces and an enclosed lawn with mature screening for privacy. Mains gas central heating and double glazing give year-round comfort, with a boiler housed in the kitchen.
This property will suit buyers seeking space and flexibility in a sought-after semi-rural village location near Ormskirk and Southport. It also has potential for purchasers who want to add a studio or adapt the footprint, subject to planning. Note practical considerations: some rooms have reduced head height on the first floor, one shower is an electric unit, the rear garden includes substantial hard landscaping, and the exact installation date of the double glazing is unknown.
Council tax is West Lancashire Band E (above average). The bungalow was built late 1970s–early 1980s, so buyers should expect period-age maintenance items and may wish to survey services and roof elements before committing. Overall, this is a roomy, versatile family home with parking and outbuilding capacity in a peaceful village setting.
