Arnold and Phillips are pleased to present for sale this well-maintained two-bedroom semi-detached true bungalow, nestled within a quiet and established position along the ever-popular Noel Gate in Aughton, West Lancs.
This peaceful residential lane continues to be a favourite among buyers who value convenience, privacy, and a practical layout, all within easy reach of excellent local amenities and commuter links.
Set back slightly from the road behind a mature hedged boundary and neat lawned frontage, this property is approached via a private driveway that provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. An integrated garage sits to the side, offering secure storage and direct access into the property — a detail that’s particularly useful in the colder months or for those who prefer step-free access from car to kitchen.
Entering the home through a covered porch, a welcoming hallway leads into a thoughtfully arranged floor plan that flows comfortably from room to room. The living room sits to the rear of the home and is a standout feature — spacious enough to accommodate both a formal seating arrangement and more relaxed furnishings and anchored by a central fireplace that adds character to the space. From here, double doors open into a bright conservatory, providing a seamless transition to the garden. Whether used as an additional sitting room, a hobby area, or simply a quiet spot to relax, it’s a valuable extension of the living space and adds to the home’s versatility.
The kitchen is located towards the centre of the property and is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall, base and tall storage units, all of which are in good order. Worktops contrast effectively with the cabinetry and offer plenty of preparation space, while integrated appliances help keep the layout uncluttered. A breakfast area or small dining table could be comfortably accommodated here if desired. Adjacent to the kitchen is the garage with an area dedicated to a washing machine and dryer — an arrangement that allows for laundry, pantry or even workshop use without encroaching on the main kitchen area.
Both bedrooms are well-sized doubles and are positioned to provide a good degree of privacy from the main living areas. Each room offers flexibility for different furniture layouts and is finished in a neutral style that would lend itself well to a simple cosmetic refresh. Storage opportunities could easily be built in if desired, although the current setup already offers practical proportions throughout. The family bathroom is also of a good size and is fitted with a walk-in bath with overhead shower, WC and wash hand basin — all in serviceable condition with scope to upgrade if modernisation is preferred.
To the rear, the garden enjoys a private outlook, with well-tended borders, established planting and a generously sized patio area ideal for placing garden furniture. It’s a manageable plot that strikes the right balance between open space and ease of maintenance — ideal for those looking to enjoy time outdoors without the need for ongoing upkeep. The garden’s shape and layout also offer potential for extension, subject to the usual planning permissions, which is something to bear in mind if more indoor space is ever needed down the line.
Aughton itself is a consistently desirable location, with Noel Gate offering a particularly quiet yet convenient position. A short walk or drive takes you into nearby Town Green, where a selection of local shops, cafes and essential services can be found, including a Post Office and chemist. Further afield, the market town of Ormskirk is just a few minutes away by car and offers a wider range of supermarkets, restaurants and boutique retailers. Transport connections are excellent, with Town Green station offering direct rail services to Liverpool and Preston, while the M58 and A59 are easily accessible for drivers commuting towards Southport, Manchester or beyond. There are also several reputable GP practices and dental surgeries nearby, with wider medical facilities available in Ormskirk.
This property offers a rare opportunity to secure a well-positioned bungalow that already ticks many of the key boxes for low-maintenance single-storey living, while still offering scope for improvement or reconfiguration over time. With a generous layout, private gardens and plenty of parking, it’s an ideal choice for downsizers, professionals or anyone seeking a more manageable lifestyle without compromising on location.
