Description
Arnold & Phillips are delighted to present this substantial three/four-bedroom detached property, occupying an enviable position along the highly regarded Chorley Road in the picturesque village of Hilldale, West Lancashire.
Offering an impressive 3,455 square feet of accommodation, this unique home represents a rare opportunity for a buyer seeking space, versatility and the chance to create something truly individual. Set against a stunning open countryside backdrop, the property offers a remarkable amount of accommodation arranged over two floors, with a flexible layout that could be adapted to suit a wide variety of lifestyles. Whilst the home would now benefit from a comprehensive programme of cosmetic modernisation, the scale, character and potential throughout are immediately apparent, making this an exciting renovation opportunity for those looking to put their own stamp on a distinctive property in a sought-after rural setting.
Approached via a private driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles, the property immediately offers a sense of privacy and practicality. The generous frontage and surrounding open aspect create an attractive first impression, with the position itself being one of the home's most notable features. Stepping inside, the true versatility of the accommodation begins to unfold, with the ground floor offering a choice of three or four reception rooms depending on the individual requirements of the new owner. This flexible arrangement allows the property to evolve around changing needs, whether that be additional bedrooms for a growing family, dedicated work-from-home spaces, entertaining areas or separate living zones for different generations.
The ground floor accommodation provides a fantastic blank canvas for modernisation, allowing a buyer to redesign and improve the layout to reflect contemporary lifestyles. The generous proportions throughout create an excellent foundation, with each room offering the opportunity to be reimagined and brought back to life. Homes of this scale are increasingly difficult to find, particularly those offering such adaptability, and this property provides the rare opportunity to create a bespoke home rather than simply move into one that has already been finished.
One of the property's most distinctive features is the substantial attached pool house, positioned to the rear and linked directly to the main accommodation via a hallway, with a basement staircase. Offering a feature that will undoubtedly appeal to those looking for something beyond the ordinary, the pool area provides an exceptional opportunity for family enjoyment, entertaining or wellness-focused living. The additional space could also inspire further creative uses depending on the requirements of the buyer, with the potential to incorporate leisure, relaxation or lifestyle facilities within the home itself.
The first floor continues to impress with a generous and unconventional layout, providing two substantial open terraces which take advantage of the property's elevated position and surrounding countryside views. These outdoor spaces offer exciting potential to create private rooftop garden areas, outdoor seating spaces or simply places to enjoy the changing seasons and uninterrupted outlook. Internally, the upper floor provides a spacious bedroom together with a large living area and a convenient shower room, further adding to the flexibility of the accommodation. Depending on how the property is approached, this area could become a superb principal suite, a self-contained living space, guest accommodation or an additional family zone.
In its current arrangement, the property offers three dedicated bedrooms, although the adaptable nature of the accommodation means the configuration could be altered to create additional bedrooms if desired. This flexibility makes the home suitable for a variety of buyers, from families requiring more space to those looking for a substantial project where imagination and design can unlock the full potential.
Externally, the property continues to provide further opportunities, with a private rear courtyard offering a secluded outdoor area immediately adjoining the house. The two generous balcony terraces provide a particularly exciting feature, with the possibility of developing landscaped rooftop gardens or additional outdoor living areas, subject to any required permissions. Combined with the countryside setting, these external spaces create the potential for a truly unique home environment where indoor and outdoor living can be carefully considered and enhanced.
Hilldale is a highly desirable village location, valued for its peaceful surroundings whilst remaining well connected to nearby towns and amenities. The property enjoys close proximity to Parbold village, which offers a well-regarded selection of local shops, cafés, restaurants, public houses and everyday conveniences. The surrounding area is renowned for its attractive countryside, providing excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and enjoying the open landscape, whilst maintaining convenient access to larger centres including Ormskirk, Chorley and Wigan. Excellent transport links are readily available, making the location appealing for commuters, and the area is also well served by several highly regarded schools, adding to its appeal for families.
Properties offering this level of space, flexibility and potential in such a beautiful rural setting are exceptionally rare. While requiring modernisation, this home provides the opportunity to create something genuinely special, with the foundations already in place for an impressive family residence. From the substantial accommodation and attached pool house to the countryside views and adaptable layout, this is a property where vision and creativity could truly transform the space into a remarkable home. Internal inspection is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale, versatility and exciting possibilities available.
