Idyllic Countryside Living Just Moments from the Canal

Welcome to this charming four-bedroom detached home nestled on Carr Lane, Lathom — a perfect blend of semi-rural peace and everyday convenience. Owner built in 1996, the property has been thoughtfully designed and maintained to offer both character and practicality. Although set in a tranquil semi-rural location with uninterrupted open field views to the front, it remains just a short drive from local amenities, schools, and transport links, making it ideal for families and professionals alike.

You’re greeted each morning by greenery, not rooftops, and just a short stroll from the picturesque Ring O’ Bells pub and scenic canal walks.

Step inside to a spacious hallway that sets the tone for the generous layout throughout, with light streaming in and warm touches that instantly make you feel at home.

At the front, the bright and airy lounge offers a tranquil retreat with a large window framing open, uninterrupted countryside views — nothing in the way but fields and sky. A gas fireplace with stone surround adds a cozy, rustic charm, while the well-proportioned space allows for a variety of furniture layouts, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.

The heart of the home lies in the stylish country kitchen — featuring matching wall and base units with warm wooden detailing, this room beautifully balances practicality and character. There’s an extractor, double oven, gas hob, and a one-and-a-half stainless steel sink set beneath a window that looks out across the beautifully landscaped rear garden. Ample worktop space and a kitchen table make it perfect for family breakfasts or casual dining. Additional features include a built-in fridge freezer, washing machine, display cabinet, and a handy storage cupboard to keep things organised.

Adjacent is a generous formal dining room, currently set with a large table and display cabinets — the perfect setting for family meals or hosting guests in style.

A living room at the rear of the property offers even more flexibility. With another gas fire and wooden surround, and a bay window that looks out to the peaceful garden, it’s a versatile space ideal as a playroom, second lounge, or hobby room.

For those working from home, the dedicated office provides a quiet and focused space. On this floor, you’ll also find a modern WC with heated towel rail and built-in vanity unit, along with a practical under-stairs storage cupboard.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress. The first bedroom, set to the front, enjoys dual windows that flood the space with light and offer far-reaching field views — currently arranged with a single bed, vanity, and storage, it makes a fantastic guest room, creative space, or child’s room.

The main bedroom is generously proportioned, with a double bed, wooden wardrobes, chest of drawers, and a dressing table. It also benefits from a private en-suite bathroom, complete with shower-over-bath, foldable glass screen, WC, and sink with built-in storage — ideal for privacy or welcoming overnight guests.

Two further double bedrooms complete the upper floor, each offering plenty of space for furniture and individual style. One features a charming carved window alcove, while the other includes a unique non-working fireplace and fitted sink, adding both character and convenience.

The family bathroom is a real highlight — a space full of personality and charm, with blue-toned walls, tiled marble flooring, and a slanted ceiling that perfectly frames the window and freestanding bath below. A separate walk-in shower, pedestal sink, WC, and mirror alcove for personal items complete this stunning room.

The loft space runs the full length of the house and offers ample head height and floor area, making it ideal for conversion into an additional bedroom with an en-suite, subject to the necessary planning and building consents.

Outside, the home offers the full package. A spacious detached garage provides storage or secure parking, while the stoned driveway accommodates multiple vehicles with ease. The front garden is picturesque, with neat lawns and established trees and bushes giving a true countryside feel.

To the rear, the large garden feels like an escape — completely private, not overlooked, and surrounded by mature greenery. A paved seating area makes the ideal spot for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or summer gatherings with friends and family.

This is more than a home – it’s a lifestyle. From its stunning setting and flexible layout to its unique features and countryside charm, this Carr Lane gem is not to be missed. Book your viewing today.
