Arnold and Phillips are pleased to bring to market this charming, Victorian three-bedroom end-terrace property, decorated to a high standard and ideally positioned within the ever-popular market town of Ormskirk. Tucked away in a well-established residential area, this home offers a welcoming balance of original character and modern-day practicality, making it particularly appealing for first-time buyers or those looking to move into a friendly and convenient neighbourhood.
Approaching the property, you’re immediately greeted by a handsome red-brick exterior that has retained much of its period charm. Being end-terrace, the home benefits from additional privacy and a slightly wider aspect than its mid-terrace neighbours. Entry is accessed from the front of the property via a traditional-style front door, opening into the lounge — a well-proportioned, warm space that feels comfortable and inviting from the outset. There’s a sense of ease here, with the layout flowing naturally from one room to the next.
Stepping through the lounge, you'll find the dining area positioned centrally within the home. It's a practical, usable space — large enough for hosting friends or simply enjoying family meals. There’s a clear sense of connectivity between the main living spaces, ideal for those who enjoy an open-plan feel without compromising on clearly defined zones. The dining area links through to the kitchen at the rear, where modern cabinetry and neutral finishes make for a clean and functional cooking space. There's room for under-counter appliances and sufficient surface space for everyday use. A rear door from the kitchen leads out into the garden, offering that always-useful connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Upstairs, the home continues to offer straightforward, practical spaces. All three bedrooms are comfortably sized — there’s no box room here — and each offers enough flexibility to suit different needs, whether you’re looking to accommodate a young family, create a home office, or maintain a guest room. The principal bedroom, situated at the front of the house, has a generous footprint and a quiet, settled feel. The second bedroom is also well-sized and would comfortably take a double bed or larger single furnishings. Bedroom three, while slightly smaller, is by no means cramped and is easily adapted depending on lifestyle. Completing the upper floor is the family bathroom, fitted with a neutral suite and easy-to-clean surfaces, providing a fuss-free, functional space. The home further benefits from a boarded loft with extendable loft ladder.
Outside, the property continues to tick key boxes. The rear garden is a lovely private spot — not overlooked and thoughtfully laid out comprising a blend of lawn and seating areas, with a large 5 metre shed. It’s the kind of space that works just as well for quiet morning coffee as it does for weekend barbecues or a bit of light gardening. The added benefit of a private driveway to the rear ensures off-road parking — a real advantage in this part of town where on-street parking can sometimes be limited.
The location here is one of the property’s real strengths. Ormskirk is a thriving market town that offers the best of both worlds — you’ll find a mix of independent shops, high street stores, and regular markets all within walking distance, along with a good selection of cafés and places to eat. There are reputable primary and secondary schools nearby, making it a practical choice for families, while excellent transport links, including Ormskirk train station, provide easy access to Liverpool, Preston and beyond. Local bus services are also regular and reliable, making commuting straightforward whether by public transport or car.
This home manages to combine characterful features with an efficient layout and a great location, all wrapped up in a move-in-ready package. If you’re looking for a property that offers more than just the basics — somewhere that feels like it could genuinely grow with you — this one is definitely worth a closer look.
