Arnold & Phillips are excited to offer for sale this two-bedroom semi-detached home, attractively positioned along the sought-after Mairscough Lane in Downholland, West Lancashire.

Nestled within a semi-rural setting, the property enjoys unspoilt countryside views to both the front and rear, giving it a peaceful backdrop that is rarely found so close to convenient amenities and strong transport connections. This is a home with enormous potential, offering a generous footprint and a layout that can be adapted to suit a range of needs, making it a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a project that can be shaped to personal taste.

The property is approached via a private driveway which comfortably accommodates multiple vehicles, setting the house back from the lane and providing a practical arrangement for everyday use. An entrance porch provides a handy spot for coats and shoes before stepping into a wide hallway that immediately conveys the sense of space on offer throughout the home.

The main reception room extends to a size that feels both impressive and versatile. Currently arranged as a large dining lounge, it enjoys a picturesque bay window to the front, framing the countryside outlook and creating an attractive focal point for the room. With triple-aspect windows, this is a space that feels open and generous in its proportions, lending itself easily to different layouts depending on preference. There is ample room for both a main sitting area and dining space, making it practical for family life and entertaining alike.

Positioned to the rear, the kitchen offers good space for cooking and day-to-day tasks, with access through to a useful rear porch. While the room would benefit from updating, it is easy to see the potential here to create a more modern and sociable kitchen environment, particularly with the views available over the rear garden and fields beyond.

To the first floor, the property continues to surprise with its proportions. Two spacious double bedrooms are provided, both of which benefit from attractive outlooks over open countryside. In addition, the landing itself is unusually spacious – so much so that, with the relevant planning consents, it could feasibly be converted into a third bedroom or study area, offering real flexibility for a growing household. The family bathroom is also of generous size, fitted with bath, shower, WC, and wash hand basin, and although some modernisation may be desirable, it provides a solid base for future redesign.

Externally, the rear garden provides a private and relaxing environment, bordered by open fields which enhance the feeling of space and privacy. A mix of lawn and planting gives plenty of scope for those who enjoy gardening, while the size of the plot allows for outdoor seating and entertaining areas to be easily incorporated. The views at the back are a real highlight, offering a sense of tranquillity that would be hard to tire of.

The location of Mairscough Lane is another strong feature. Downholland provides a semi-rural lifestyle with a welcoming village community, while still being within easy reach of larger towns such as Ormskirk and Southport. A good range of everyday amenities, shops, and services are close by, with excellent road and rail links making commuting straightforward. The surrounding countryside offers an abundance of walking routes and scenic spaces, making this an ideal location for those who value both convenience and a connection to nature.

Extending to over 1,160 square feet, and benefitting from double glazing and modern central heating, this property represents a rare opportunity to purchase a spacious home in a highly desirable location with genuine scope to enhance and improve. With its size, outlooks, and flexible layout, it is well worth an internal viewing to fully appreciate the potential on offer.
