Arnold and Phillips are pleased to present this substantial four-bedroom detached home, tucked away in a quiet corner of Burscough and set on a private plot that offers both space and seclusion. Measuring approximately 2,000 square feet, this property provides generous internal accommodation alongside a practical layout that suits the demands of modern family life, while the gated frontage and established garden give a sense of privacy that’s hard to come by in more built-up developments.

From the outset, the property feels well considered. A sliding steel gate opens to a large driveway with ample space for multiple vehicles — ideal if you have teenagers approaching driving age, or regular visitors. The frontage is smart yet understated, and the plot itself is nicely proportioned, giving the house a balanced setting without feeling overly formal. It’s a home you can settle into, whether you’re upsizing or simply looking for a space that allows everyone to have their own corner.

Stepping into the hallway, you get an immediate sense of how well the house is laid out. There’s a clear distinction between the main living areas, quieter retreat spaces, and practical rooms that support the flow of a busy home. To the right, the main lounge is comfortably sized and connects directly to the dining room. This arrangement gives you flexibility — whether you're hosting a large family meal, creating a more open-plan feel, or keeping the rooms separate for different activities. The lounge can easily accommodate a full seating suite and entertainment setup without feeling tight, and it’s the kind of room that works just as well for casual evenings as it does for more formal gatherings.

To the left as you enter, there’s a separate family room which could easily be used as a snug, games room or even a second TV lounge. This sort of extra living space is often high on the list for families, particularly with older children or when working from home has become part of everyday life. Toward the rear of the ground floor, a study provides a defined workspace away from the busier parts of the house, and alongside it you’ll find a downstairs WC — a simple but essential feature for day-to-day convenience.

The kitchen sits at the back of the house and has a straightforward, usable layout with direct access to the conservatory. Whether you’re cooking for the family or preparing something more relaxed to enjoy outside, this part of the house feels connected without being too open. The conservatory itself offers a casual dining or seating area that looks out onto the garden. It’s a good size — not oversized, but big enough to make it feel like a separate zone — and would be just as useful year-round as a quiet reading space or play area as it would be for summer meals with doors open to the garden.

Upstairs, the layout continues to be functional and well planned. The master bedroom includes an en suite and offers more than enough room for fitted or freestanding furniture, while still feeling relaxed and uncluttered. The other three bedrooms are all proper doubles, which can be increasingly hard to find in newer properties. Each has its own sense of space, making them suitable for children of all ages, guests, or even additional working or hobby rooms. They’re served by a central family bathroom that is practical in its layout and ideal for shared use.

The rear garden is enclosed and enjoys a high level of privacy thanks to mature hedges along the boundary. This gives a sense of separation from neighbouring properties and makes the space feel more secure for children or pets. There’s a mix of lawn and patio, providing usable outdoor zones without becoming too high maintenance. It’s the kind of garden where you can enjoy a morning coffee outside, let kids play safely, or host friends in the warmer months without needing to overhaul the space to suit your needs.

The location is a real asset. Burscough is a well-connected and well-regarded area, popular with families for good reason. There are several primary and secondary schools within easy reach, as well as nurseries and childcare options locally. Everyday amenities — including supermarkets, cafés, and independent shops — are nearby, and Burscough Wharf offers a selection of restaurants and small businesses, adding a bit of character to weekend plans. Transport links are straightforward, with easy access to rail connections at Burscough Bridge and Burscough Junction, and strong road links to Ormskirk, Southport, and the wider West Lancashire area.

Altogether, this is a property that stands out not just because of its size or setting, but because of how well it supports the rhythms of family life. It offers flexibility without compromise, with enough space to grow into and enough comfort to enjoy from day one.
