Arnold and Phillips are proud to present this beautiful one bedroom ground floor apartment in Coronation Court. With its own private patio and fabulous communal areas, the property provides retirement living at its finest. Designed and built by award winning developers McCarthy & Stone, the development consists of 39 one and two-bedroom retirement apartments for the over 60s, the design and layout is very practical, and the apartment is finished to a high standard with quality fixtures and fittings and tasteful décor throughout. There is a house manager on site and a 24-hour emergency call system provided via a personal pendant alarm, with call points in the bathroom.
Approaching Coronation Court, there’s a sense of privacy that’s often hard to find so close to the town centre. The development sits quietly, yet with direct access out towards the park and nearby amenities, so you feel connected without being exposed to unnecessary noise or foot traffic. Being on the ground floor adds to that ease of access, particularly appealing if you’re looking to avoid stairs altogether or simply want the convenience of stepping straight in and out. Once inside the apartment, you’re welcomed into a central hallway that acts as a natural hub, keeping the layout simple and intuitive. There’s enough space here to comfortably hang coats or leave shoes without the area feeling cramped, and it gives a clear sense of how the rooms relate to one another.
The main living room is one of the standout features of the home. It’s a room that feels generous without being overwhelming, offering flexibility in how you choose to arrange it. There’s plenty of space to create a comfortable seating area as well as a dining setup if you like to entertain or enjoy meals at home, and the proportions mean you’re not forced into a single layout. Sliding doors lead directly out to the garden area, which not only extends the living space but also makes day-to-day life feel more open and relaxed. From the lounge, there’s also direct access into the fitted kitchen, keeping everything conveniently connected. The kitchen itself is practical and well set up, with storage and worktop space that suits everyday cooking without feeling over complicated, making it ideal whether you’re a keen home cook or someone who prefers quick and simple meals.
The bedroom continues the theme of space and usability. It’s a genuinely good-sized double room, easily accommodating a king size bed along with additional furniture if required, without sacrificing comfort or circulation space. Having sliding doors leading outside is a particularly nice touch, offering a different aspect and a sense of separation from the rest of the apartment. The integrated wardrobe and storage cupboard help keep the room clutter-free, which is often a key consideration for buyers looking at one bedroom properties. It’s a room that feels calm and adaptable, whether you work shifts, need somewhere quiet to unwind, or want a bedroom that doesn’t feel like an afterthought.
Completing the internal accommodation is the shower room, which is notably large for an apartment of this type. The walk-in shower adds a level of convenience that many buyers actively seek, and the overall size of the room means it doesn’t feel tight or restrictive. Everything is arranged sensibly, making it easy to maintain while still feeling comfortable to use on a daily basis.
Outside, the apartment benefits from its own small garden plot, accessed directly from the living room, along with a useful storage shed. This outdoor space is ideal for those who enjoy having a spot to sit out with a morning coffee, grow a few plants, or simply have somewhere private to get some fresh air without leaving home. It’s manageable in size, so it won’t demand hours of upkeep, but still adds real value to the way the property can be used. The shed is a practical addition too, providing somewhere to store bikes, tools or seasonal items that you’d rather not keep indoors.
One of the most appealing aspects of this property is its location. Coronation Court offers a private setting while still being exceptionally close to Ormskirk town centre. Shops, cafés and everyday services are all within easy reach, making day-to-day errands straightforward. The nearby park provides green space right on your doorstep, ideal for walks, light exercise or simply enjoying the outdoors without needing to travel. Ormskirk also benefits from good transport links, including rail connections and road access for commuting or visiting surrounding areas. Local schools and healthcare facilities are close by, adding to the area’s broad appeal.
From a buyer’s perspective, it’s worth noting that this apartment is offered with no onward chain and is ready to move into, removing much of the uncertainty that can come with purchasing. The overall condition, layout and location combine to create a home that works well now but can also adapt to changing needs over time. It’s the sort of place that suits modern living without trying too hard, and one that often leaves viewers pleasantly surprised by how much space and flexibility it offers once you’re inside.
