Swanpool Lane, Aughton, L39

Arnold and Phillips are pleased to offer for sale this characterful and generously proportioned four-bedroom semi-detached period home, situated in the sought-after area of Aughton. This property blends timeless architectural charm with contemporary convenience, offering a practical and well-thought-out layout ideal for modern family life.

Set back from the road behind a gated entrance, the home enjoys a wide frontage with ample off-road parking available on the spacious driveway. A detached double garage sits to one side, providing additional storage or secure vehicle space as needed. The front approach sets a positive tone, combining privacy with an immediate sense of space. This is a home that has been well looked after and thoughtfully modernised over time.

Stepping through the front door, you're welcomed into a hallway that feels calm and well-organised. To the right is the lounge — a comfortable, inviting room that suits both everyday use and more relaxed evenings in. The proportions allow for multiple furniture arrangements, and it serves as a cosy retreat from the more sociable areas of the house.

Straight ahead, a formal dining room or additional living space adds flexibility to the ground floor. This room benefits from French doors that open onto the rear garden, connecting indoor and outdoor living with ease — a feature that works particularly well in warmer months. Just off the hallway is a downstairs WC, a simple yet essential element for guests and everyday use.

To the rear, the heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room. This is where the layout really comes into its own, offering a spacious environment that works as a central gathering space. The kitchen has been finished to a high standard, with quality units, ample surface space and room for a family-sized dining table. There’s also space for a casual seating area, making it ideal for family life or entertaining. French doors at the back lead directly to the garden, making it easy to move between indoors and outdoors during gatherings or just for a relaxed evening meal outside.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms, with three of the bedrooms being spacious enough for double beds and two further benefitting from fitted wardrobes. The master bedroom includes a contemporary en-suite, offering privacy and convenience. There is also a home office on this floor — a helpful feature for those needing dedicated work-from-home space, but just as easily returned to a bedroom or hobby room. A modern family bathroom serves these rooms and is presented in keeping with the rest of the home — clean, functional, and smartly finished.

The second floor is home to the fourth bedroom, tucked away and offering a bit more seclusion. With a walk-in wardrobe, built-in units and skylight, it could work well as a guest suite, a teenager’s room, or even a quiet study or creative studio. There’s also a large storage cupboard on this level which could be utilised as a playroom, office or for those needing space for seasonal items or household essentials.

The rear garden is one of the standout features of this home. Spacious and private, it’s laid out in a way that’s easy to maintain but full of potential. A patio area at the immediate rear of the house is ideal for setting up outdoor seating or dining areas. A few steps lead up to an expansive lawn, bordered by mature planting and trees that help create a secluded feel. There’s enough space here for children to play, room for gardening enthusiasts to get involved, and a layout that allows for future landscaping projects or simply enjoying as-is.

Situated in the well-regarded village of Aughton, the property enjoys a peaceful residential setting while remaining close to a wide range of amenities. Ormskirk town centre is just a short drive away and offers a good mix of independent shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants. There are several highly rated schools in the area, both primary and secondary, which makes this location particularly popular with families. For commuters, there are convenient transport links via Aughton Park and Town Green train stations, providing direct access to Liverpool and Preston. Road links to the M58 and M6 are also within easy reach.

This is a property that offers more than just space — it has a warmth and character that’s hard to replicate, with a layout that supports family life both now and in years to come. Whether you’re upsizing or simply looking for that long-term base with potential to grow into, this home deserves your consideration.
