Arnold and Phillips are delighted to offer for sale this well-proportioned and thoughtfully laid-out five-bedroom semi-detached home, nestled within the rural village setting of Downholland, just outside Ormskirk. This is a property that balances space, function and location, appealing to those looking for a home with room to grow, without compromising on convenience or surroundings.

Positioned along a quiet, residential lane, the home sits behind a neat driveway with ample parking. The semi-detached style is traditional in feel but enhanced by practical extensions that make the most of its generous footprint. As you approach the front entrance, the modest façade gives way to a surprisingly expansive and well-arranged interior that flows logically from room to room, offering versatile spaces suited to modern family life.

Stepping through the front door, you're welcomed by a spacious entrance hallway that offers room to breathe — a practical area for coats, bags, or simply for greeting guests without stepping on one another's toes. Immediately to the left is a conveniently placed downstairs WC, something that becomes invaluable in a busy household. To the right, the lounge offers a more private living space, with proportions that allow for larger seating arrangements or media setups. It feels like the kind of room where you’d retreat in the evenings for quieter moments or weekend film nights.

Moving towards the rear of the property, the kitchen/diner/family room forms the central hub of the home — and quite possibly where most day-to-day life will unfold. The open-plan layout makes it easier to stay connected while cooking, relaxing, or supervising children. There’s space here for a family-sized dining table and an informal seating area too, which makes it ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying family meals together without feeling cramped. The kitchen features plenty of wall and base storage units with space for fitted appliances. This space is further complemented by a separate dining room — useful if you prefer more formal entertaining or want to keep the main kitchen/diner free for everyday use.

To the rear of the ground floor is a sun room, positioned to take advantage of the garden outlook. This area could be adapted in a number of ways depending on need — it might serve as a quiet reading nook, an extra playroom, or even a home working space. With views over the garden and open fields beyond, it’s a peaceful spot and one of the property’s most enjoyable corners.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with five bedrooms arranged to suit both family life and guest accommodation. The master bedroom benefits from its own en suite, providing a more private experience with no need to share during busy mornings. The remaining bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom and can be adapted for use as children's rooms, guest space or even an office or hobby room. The flexibility here is a real strength, giving you scope to reshape the layout to suit different stages of life. None of the rooms feel cramped, and with five to choose from, it’s unlikely anyone in the family will be short-changed in terms of space.

The rear garden is one of the standout features. A good-sized lawn gives children plenty of room to run and play, while a decked area offers space for outdoor seating and summer meals. What really sets this garden apart, though, is the open outlook over the surrounding fields — a rare bonus that brings a real sense of space and quiet, especially in the warmer months. It’s the kind of setting that invites you to spend more time outdoors, whether you’re tending to the garden, relaxing with a book, or hosting friends.

Downholland itself offers a charming blend of village character and countryside calm, while still being within easy reach of Ormskirk and the wider West Lancashire area. Local amenities include nearby shops and supermarkets in Ormskirk town centre, reputable primary and secondary schools, and transport links that make commuting to Liverpool or Southport relatively straightforward. For families, it’s a location that manages to feel away from it all without leaving you cut off. There's easy access to countryside walks, local farm shops, and community spots that contribute to a welcoming, family-friendly environment.

If you're looking for a home with space, practicality and potential — something that doesn’t compromise on location or lifestyle — then this is one that’s well worth viewing.
