New Lane, Burscough, L40

Arnold and Phillips are pleased to present this two-bedroom semi-detached true bungalow, offered to the market with no onward chain and brimming with potential for those looking to create a home tailored to their own taste and style.

Set on a quiet residential street, the property sits comfortably back from the road, with a manageable front garden that could easily be shaped into something inviting with a bit of care. A driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a detached single garage — handy for extra storage or even a small workshop space if needed. The entrance to the bungalow is straightforward, offering easy access, which will be appreciated by anyone seeking single-level living without steps or stairs to navigate.

Inside, the layout is practical and well-proportioned, giving a sense of space that’s often missing from more modern builds. The living room sits at the back of the property and feels comfortable in size — it could comfortably accommodate a three-piece suite and still leave room for shelving or a media unit. With a bit of vision, it’s easy to imagine this room brought up to date with contemporary finishes while still retaining a homely character.

The kitchen is separate and located at the rear also. While it currently requires updating, the layout allows for plenty of cabinet and worktop space, and with the right eye, there’s potential to open up the space further or reconfigure the flow to make better use of it — possibly even creating a more open-plan connection to the rear garden. There’s a natural spot here for a small table and chairs, making everyday meals or coffee mornings feel effortless.

Both bedrooms are located off the central hallway, offering privacy from the main living spaces. The main bedroom overlooks the rear garden and offers a quiet, relaxing space with room for a double bed and additional furniture. The second bedroom, although slightly smaller, still offers enough space to function well as a guest room, home office or even a dressing room — depending on the new owner’s needs. The family bathroom is finished in a traditional style, and could be a great chance to tailor the design to suit personal preferences — whether that’s a walk-in shower, bath, or a combination of both.

Outside, the rear garden is private and a good size — nothing too overwhelming to maintain, but with enough room to create zones for seating, planting, or perhaps even raised beds for homegrown produce. It’s currently a blank canvas, making it easier for buyers to put their own stamp on it. The countryside views at the rear are a sought-after feature that is rare to find, adding a sense of privacy and connection to nature. The detached garage sits to one side and could be kept for secure parking or converted for additional storage or hobbies, subject to planning.

As for the location, this property enjoys a spot that’s tucked away enough to feel peaceful, yet still within easy reach of everyday essentials. Local shops, supermarkets and cafes are just a short drive or walk away, and there are public transport links nearby that make it easy to get into surrounding towns or into the city if needed. There’s also a selection of well-regarded schools in the area, which could be appealing for those looking to downsize but stay close to family. Green spaces and walking routes are accessible too, which is ideal for anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors without needing to venture too far.

All in all, this bungalow offers a genuine opportunity for a buyer who isn’t afraid of a bit of work, and who wants to create a home that reflects their own style and priorities. It’s rare to find a home that offers this level of potential in such a convenient setting, and with no onward chain, the path to making it yours is refreshingly uncomplicated.
