Square Lane, Burscough, L40

Arnold and Phillips are pleased to present this exceptional four-bedroom detached dormer bungalow, positioned on a substantial and private plot along the ever-popular Square Lane, right in the heart of Burscough, West Lancashire.

Thoughtfully extended and fully renovated throughout, this is a home that offers the rare combination of practical space, high-quality finish and everyday convenience — ideal for buyers seeking something ready to move into without compromise.

From the roadside, the property immediately makes a strong first impression. The contemporary light-yellow render, offset by smart landscaping and a sleek modern facade, sets the tone for what to expect inside. A wide private driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles and leads to an integrated garage that offers additional secure parking or valuable storage space. The gardens to the front and side are mature yet low-maintenance, framing the house beautifully while allowing for plenty of outdoor enjoyment.

Once inside, the scale and quality of the recent renovations become clear. The ground floor is spacious, with an easy flow from room to room that suits a wide variety of lifestyles. At the front of the home sits the main living room — a generously sized space that comfortably accommodates a full suite of furniture without feeling overfilled. The décor is tastefully neutral, creating a blank canvas for a range of interior styles, and there’s a welcoming, uncluttered feel that speaks to the quality of the work done here.

To the rear of the property, the kitchen and dining area have been redesigned with both functionality and day-to-day living in mind. The kitchen is fitted with a broad range of contemporary wall, base and tower units, offering ample storage. Contrasting worktops and an integrated breakfast bar subtly zone the room and add an element of casual dining or workspace. Built-in appliances keep things streamlined, and the layout allows plenty of room for a good-sized dining table without encroaching on the cooking space. A separate utility room sits just off the kitchen, keeping laundry and domestic tasks tucked neatly out of the way — a particularly valuable touch for families or households that entertain often.

Also located on the ground floor is a well-sized double bedroom as well as a single bedroom with en-suite facilities, both offering flexibility for guest rooms, playrooms or work-from-home setups depending on personal needs.

Upstairs, the converted dormer layout makes clever use of the available space. Two further double bedrooms are located here, both featuring integrated storage options that make the most of the sloped rooflines without losing usable space. The finish is consistent with the rest of the house — fresh, modern and considered — making each room feel cohesive. A newly fitted bathroom, with stylish tiling and modern sanitary ware, completes the upstairs accommodation. It's designed to be both practical and visually appealing, with thoughtful finishes that complement the rest of the house.

The outdoor space is a particular highlight, not just in terms of size but in layout and usability too. With wrap-around gardens that are well maintained and established, there’s a real sense of privacy and freedom. Whether it's outdoor seating for summer gatherings, a safe play space for children, or even the potential to landscape further, this garden offers plenty of scope without requiring excessive upkeep. There’s a large patio terrace that lends itself well to family BBQs or evening meals outdoors, and the generous lawn area is edged with mature plants and shrubs for added character and seasonal interest.

Square Lane remains one of Burscough’s most sought-after locations, and it’s easy to see why. The property is a short stroll from the village centre, where you’ll find a full range of amenities including supermarkets, cafés, pubs, and independent shops. Burscough Wharf is also nearby, offering canalside dining and boutique shopping options. For families, local schools are well regarded, and both primary and secondary settings are within easy reach. Transport links are excellent, with two nearby train stations providing direct routes to Southport, Liverpool and Manchester, and easy access to the M58 and wider motorway network.

All in all, this is a thoughtfully renovated property that delivers on space, quality and location. Whether you’re looking to move up the ladder, downsize without compromise, or simply secure a high-specification home in a popular village setting, this property is well worth serious consideration.
