Arnold and Phillips are delighted to present this four/five-bedroom detached dormer bungalow, occupying an attractive corner plot along the popular and well-regarded Chatsworth Road in Ainsdale.
This is a property that immediately stands out, not only because of its prominent position but also for the way it combines space, practicality, and flexibility in a way that makes it suitable for a wide range of buyers. Whether you’re searching for a comfortable long-term family home or a property that allows for adaptable living arrangements, this one is well worth considering.
The home is approached via a generous driveway that provides ample parking for multiple vehicles, leading to a link-detached double garage. This arrangement is especially useful for those with more than one car or those who value extra storage and workspace in addition to the main living accommodation. Being set back from the road and occupying its own corner plot, the house enjoys a sense of privacy while still sitting neatly within the heart of the community.
Once inside, you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hallway that sits centrally within the home and sets the tone for the layout. Off the hall, there is a useful storeroom and a separate WC, which always proves practical for guests. The main living room, positioned to one side, is of impressive size and feels both open and inviting. With triple-aspect windows, the room benefits from a balanced sense of brightness without being overpowering, and the premium oak flooring that runs throughout adds both warmth and a touch of quality underfoot. It is the kind of space that can comfortably take larger furniture pieces without ever feeling crowded, making it versatile for both everyday living and entertaining.
To the front of the property lies a second reception room. While perfectly suited as an additional lounge, snug, or home office, the room’s proportions also make it viable as a fifth bedroom if the need arises. This flexibility could be particularly valuable for multi-generational households or those who like to have options for changing family needs over time.
The kitchen is located towards the rear and is finished to a modern standard with a range of fitted wall, base, and tower units. Integrated appliances ensure everything is neatly tucked away, while premium granite work surfaces not only look smart but are also highly durable. The kitchen connects through to a separate utility room, which is always a welcome feature in a busy household, providing space for laundry and storage while keeping the main kitchen clear.
One of the most appealing aspects of the ground floor is the inclusion of a large double bedroom with its own en-suite. This room is spacious and private, making it well suited as a main bedroom. Alternatively, its position and facilities mean it could also serve as a semi-independent space for a relative, creating excellent annexe potential without the need for major adaptation.
Moving upstairs, the first floor provides three further double bedrooms, all of which are generously sized. One of the bedrooms also enjoys access to a balcony, offering a private spot to enjoy fresh air and an outlook over the gardens below. A modern family bathroom serves the first floor, fitted with a bath, separate shower, WC, and vanity wash basin, all finished with contemporary tiling that gives a clean, timeless feel.
Externally, the property continues to impress. The wrap-around gardens are not directly overlooked, enhancing the sense of privacy, and they have been landscaped in a way that provides both interest and practicality. Rolling lawns are interspersed with mature plants and shrubs, offering greenery throughout the year. Several patio terraces are positioned to catch the sun at different points in the day, creating ideal spots for eating outdoors, relaxing with a book, or hosting friends and family. The garden has clearly been designed with both ease of maintenance and enjoyment in mind, meaning it will appeal equally to those who like to keep things simple and to those who enjoy a bit of gardening.
The location adds further appeal. Chatsworth Road is well-placed within Ainsdale, a village known for its welcoming atmosphere and excellent amenities. The centre of Ainsdale is only a short distance away, offering a good range of shops, cafes, and services. The area is also well served for schools, with several options available for families of all ages. For those commuting, superb transport and road links provide easy access to Southport, Liverpool, and Manchester, while the railway station at Ainsdale puts wider travel within easy reach. Nature lovers will also appreciate the proximity to the coast and surrounding countryside, where beaches, walking trails, and outdoor pursuits are readily accessible.
Altogether, this property provides around 2,100 square feet of living accommodation, benefitting from gas central heating, double glazing, and a versatile layout that can be adapted to a variety of lifestyles. It offers plenty of space without feeling unwieldy and combines both modern comforts and scope for personalisation.
