Arnold and Phillips are pleased to offer for sale this beautifully modernised unique four-bedroom detached home, quietly positioned along the sought-after Crabtree Lane in Burscough. This is a property that feels both ready and welcoming from the moment you step inside – with thoughtful updates throughout and a layout that suits the needs of modern family life. Offering a fine balance between peaceful rural surroundings and practical daily living, it’s a home that feels just as good as it looks.
Set back from the road, the house is approached via a neat paved driveway offering ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The frontage is well-maintained, and with the property being detached, there’s an immediate sense of space and privacy. You step first into a useful entrance porch – a practical buffer zone, with built in storage, ideal for muddy boots or coats after enjoying one of the many local countryside walks. Step into a stylish, well proportioned hallway, to your right, a convenient downstairs WC adds a further layer of functionality that’s always appreciated in busy family homes. There’s also internal access to the garage from the hallway – a hugely practical feature that could be used for storage, a workshop space, or potentially converted to suit further needs.
Turning left, you're welcomed into a large, separate lounge that offers a quiet retreat from the rest of the home. It's a comfortably sized room, easily accommodating a full suite of furniture without feeling overfilled. Whether it’s used as a more formal living space or a cosy place for family movie nights, this room works well as a standalone spot to unwind.
To the rear, the kitchen and dining areas are kept separate but well-connected, allowing for flexible use depending on how the next owner prefers to live. The large, bespoke modern kitchen has been updated with modern units and worktops, offering plenty of storage and surface space, with a layout that makes cooking feel intuitive rather than cramped. The kitchen has a built in laundry area providing additional storage and hanging space along with access to the rear garden through double doors. The dining room, incorporating a log burner for cosy family winter meals around the table, overlooks the rear garden and is generous in size – easily accommodating a large dining table, with room left over for a sideboard or storage if needed. With its direct access to the patio, this space has the potential to become a sociable hub of the home, especially during warmer months when indoor and outdoor living can blend easily.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms with quality finishes and fully fitted furniture. Each room has its own feel, but none are compromised in terms of size – meaning that whether used for children, guests, or even as home working space, there’s no box room here. The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower finished with stylish tiling and premium fittings, providing that bit of separation and comfort, while the family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms with a clean, contemporary finish. It’s worth noting that the upstairs layout flows well, and feels uncluttered – often something overlooked until you view it in person.
The rear garden is a real standout. It’s long, private, and fully enclosed – ideal for families with children or pets. The patio at the rear of the house provides a straightforward area for seating or outdoor dining, and the rest of the garden offers enough space for play, gardening, or simply enjoying a bit of fresh air without feeling overlooked. With rural surroundings beyond, the setting is calm and green, and the space has been maintained in a way that leaves it ready to enjoy without needing immediate work.
The location on Crabtree Lane places you within the charming village of Burscough – a popular area for families thanks to its blend of countryside character and strong local amenities. Burscough offers a great selection of shops, supermarkets, and cafes, as well as well-regarded schools within easy reach. Transport links are particularly good here, with Burscough Junction and Burscough Bridge stations providing direct rail connections to Ormskirk, Southport, Manchester, and beyond, making commuting into Liverpool or Preston a realistic daily option. There are also regular bus services and good access to the A59 for drivers. The Leeds-Liverpool Canal is close by too – ideal for weekend walks or bike rides with the family.
Overall, this is a home that’s been thoughtfully brought up to date while keeping its layout practical and family-focused. There’s space to grow into, areas to relax, and surroundings that offer a real sense of calm without feeling isolated. Whether you're upsizing, relocating for schools, or just looking for a property that’s ready to move straight into with minimal fuss, this could be one to seriously consider.
