Mickering Lane, Aughton, L39

Arnold and Phillips are delighted to present for sale this extended three-bedroom home, ideally positioned along the ever-popular Mickering Lane in Aughton, West Lancashire.

Situated in a semi-rural pocket of this sought-after village, the property offers a well-balanced blend of comfortable interior space and generous outdoor areas, with the added advantage of open countryside views to the rear – a rare benefit for homes this close to key amenities and commuter links.

From the roadside, the home presents attractively, with a traditional brick façade and a wide driveway offering secure off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The frontage is neatly kept, while the overall plot provides a sense of privacy without compromising on convenience. The attached double garage sits comfortably to the side and, as it currently stands, serves well as accessible storage – but for those with evolving lifestyle needs, this space offers clear potential for conversion, whether as a home office, studio or even a ground-floor bedroom, subject to the usual permissions.

On entry, you’re greeted with a practical layout that flows naturally through the ground floor. Having been re-wired and re-plastered throughout, the main living room sits to the front and feels generous without being overly expansive, easily accommodating full-sized furnishings and creating a relaxed atmosphere for everyday use. This leads through to a larger dining room – ideal for those who enjoy entertaining or simply want a more formal space to gather. The flow between these two rooms offers flexibility; they work well as separate zones but also lend themselves to more open plan living if that’s preferred.

Towards the rear, the kitchen is well-appointed and sensibly designed. It features a range of fitted wall, base and tower units with integrated appliances and smart contrasting worktops. The layout is practical, offering plenty of workspace while maintaining a tidy and uncluttered look. It’s the kind of kitchen that doesn’t require immediate attention – ready to use as is, but with room to make it your own over time. Adjoining this, the utility room is a useful addition, providing extra storage and laundry facilities tucked neatly out of the way. Again, for buyers looking to extend or reconfigure, this space holds further potential.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which are double in size. Each room has been neutrally finished to a high standard, allowing buyers to move in and live comfortably from day one. The rooms offer enough flexibility to accommodate different furniture layouts, guest space, or work-from-home setups if needed. The main family bathroom serves all three bedrooms and is presented in a modern tiled style. Fitted with a full bath and overhead shower, vanity basin and WC, it strikes a good balance between functionality and style.

Outside, the garden is a genuine highlight. Backing onto uninterrupted open fields, the property enjoys a peaceful and green outlook, which offers a real sense of space and separation rarely found in homes of this type. The garden itself is largely laid to lawn and bordered by mature shrubs and plants, making it both easy to maintain and pleasant to look at. The patio terrace offers a generous seating area – a great spot for eating outside during warmer months or simply relaxing while looking out across the open countryside. It’s a private, adaptable outdoor space that lends itself well to family use, entertaining, or quieter moments of the day.

Location-wise, this home ticks a lot of boxes. Mickering Lane is a desirable address within Aughton, known for its semi-rural charm and ease of access to both village and town amenities. You’re only a short distance from a range of local shops, cafés and well-regarded schools. Transport links are excellent, with nearby rail stations at Town Green and Aughton Park providing direct services to both Liverpool and Ormskirk. For those commuting by car, connections to the A59 and M58 are easily reached, making travel across the region straightforward.

All in all, this property presents an excellent opportunity for a range of buyers – whether you’re looking to step into a family home, downsize while retaining outside space and countryside views, or create a more bespoke layout using the garage and utility space already in place. It offers room to grow without feeling overwhelming, and its position combines rural peace with genuine everyday convenience.
