Arnold & Phillips are delighted to present this attractive three-bedroom detached home on Merchant Road in Ormskirk, West Lancs.

This is a modern development that has grown increasingly popular with buyers who value convenience, a settled neighbourhood feel and easy access to the town’s amenities. This property offers a well-considered layout, generous room sizes and a finish that feels fresh and ready to live in, with the added advantage of wrap-around gardens and a detached garage - features that many people specifically look for but often struggle to find in newer builds.

Arriving at the property, the private driveway provides straightforward parking, and the detached garage offers useful additional space for storage, hobbies, or secure vehicle parking. The front garden is neatly kept and frames the house well without demanding too much upkeep, while the corner-style frontage gives the property a little more presence as you approach. Merchant Road itself is known for being peaceful yet well connected, which makes daily routines, whether commuting, school runs or errands, feel that bit easier.

Stepping inside, the entrance hallway is wider than you might expect from a modern build, which immediately makes the home feel welcoming rather than confined. There’s room to move comfortably, to tuck coats and bags away, and to access each ground floor room without congestion. To the front left, the main living room extends to a size that works well whether you prefer a more traditional layout or a more modern, streamlined approach. The bay window gives the room a slightly more open feel, and the patio doors at the rear give you the option of stepping through to the garden directly from this space. Its décor has clearly been chosen with a contemporary style in mind, so it feels ready for someone to walk in and settle without needing to make immediate changes.

Adjoining the living room is the open-plan dining kitchen, and this is likely to be one of the rooms that stands out most to prospective buyers. The fitted units are modern but practical, offering plenty of storage, and the contrasting work-surfaces give the kitchen a clean, cohesive look. Integrated appliances help keep everything streamlined, and the dining area is generous enough to accommodate a table without dominating the room. This is a space that supports everyday living comfortably - whether it’s cooking during busy weekday evenings, having friends over, or keeping an eye on children while preparing meals. The flow between this room and the living room also allows for a layout that works well when entertaining, as guests can spread naturally between the two spaces.

The ground floor also includes a handy WC, as well as a useful storeroom that helps keep the hallway clutter-free. Storage is something buyers often ask about, and having this already in place is a real advantage.

Moving upstairs, the property continues to offer well-balanced room sizes. The main bedroom sits comfortably as a double and benefits from its own tiled en-suite, finished in a style that feels modern and easy to maintain. The second bedroom is also a good-sized double and would suit a range of uses depending on how many people are living in the home - whether as a permanent bedroom, a guest room or even a combined office-and-bedroom arrangement if hybrid working forms part of your routine. The third bedroom is a generous single; spacious enough for a full furniture set or equally suitable as a dedicated office, nursery or dressing room. The family bathroom mirrors the en-suite’s tiled finish, providing a bath with overhead shower, WC and wash hand basin, all in a style that keeps the home feeling cohesive from room to room.

The rear garden has recently been landscaped with ease of maintenance in mind, which is especially appealing for buyers who want to enjoy time outdoors without committing to a high level of upkeep. The Indian stone patio offers a reliable and attractive surface for garden furniture, making it an inviting place to enjoy meals outside or simply unwind on warmer evenings. The lawn sits neatly at the centre and is framed by red brick walls and timber fencing, giving the garden both privacy and a sense of structure. Whether you enjoy gardening, need a safe space for children to play, or simply want a pleasant outdoor area without constant work, this garden strikes a good balance.

Ormskirk remains one of West Lancashire’s most desirable market towns, known for its blend of independent shops, cafés, weekly markets and reliable transport connections. Merchant Road sits ideally for access to Ormskirk Hospital, Edge Hill University, local supermarkets and well-regarded schools. Commuting is straightforward too, with strong road links and direct rail services towards both Preston and Liverpool. The development itself attracts a wide range of buyers thanks to its modern appeal and its position within reach of both the town centre and surrounding green spaces.
