Description
Four-Bedroom Detached Home In Chorley With A Principal Bedroom Suite, Sauna And Landscaped Entertaining Garden. Arnold & Phillips Chorley are proud to present this thoughtfully enhanced four-bedroom detached home in Chorley, combining inviting family accommodation with a distinctive collection of lifestyle features. A cosy rear lounge with a wood-burning stove opens into a substantial conservatory, while a separate dining room and dedicated study provide space for entertaining and working from home. Upstairs, the principal suite includes an extensively fitted dressing room and en-suite bathroom, complemented by two further shower rooms, one incorporating a two-person sauna.
Extending to approximately 2,116 sq ft overall, including the garage and conservatory, the property balances generous accommodation with practical improvements. Solar panels with battery storage, an EV charging point and a roof fully replaced in 2026 sit alongside a carefully landscaped garden with several places to dine, gather and unwind.
Inviting Spaces For Everyday Living. Solid oak block flooring introduces the home’s warm natural character in the entrance hallway, continuing into the study and rear lounge. Light decoration and a white spindle staircase provide a composed backdrop, while the separate rooms allow different activities to sit comfortably alongside one another. At the rear, the lounge offers a welcoming setting for evenings together, with the wood-burning stove creating a natural focal point. The wide opening into the conservatory gives this room an appealing connection with the garden and allows the living space to expand when friends and family visit.
Measuring approximately 20 feet across, the conservatory is a substantial additional reception space, with glazing above and around it framing the established planting outside. Underfloor heating beneath the tiled floor adds comfort, while three double sockets provide flexibility for lighting and everyday use. Access from both the kitchen and lounge makes it an integral part of the ground-floor arrangement. A dedicated study provides a separate workspace, supported by fibre broadband connected directly to the property. A ground-floor WC completes the practical layout.
Kitchen & Dining. The kitchen combines warm timber cabinetry with pale work surfaces, colourful tiled splashbacks and underfloor heating. A breakfast bar creates an informal place for coffee, conversation or a quick meal, while the surrounding cupboards and drawers provide generous storage. Built-in cooking appliances and a gas hob are arranged within the fitted cabinetry. The adjoining utility room provides a further sink, additional storage and space for laundry appliances, keeping household tasks separate from the main kitchen. At the front of the house, the second reception room is currently arranged as a dedicated dining room. Plantation blinds soften the outlook, while extensive fitted understairs storage makes effective use of the space. It offers a comfortable setting for family meals and longer evenings around the table, with the flexibility to serve as another sitting room if preferred.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms. The first floor provides four bedrooms, with solid cherry wood flooring bringing warmth and continuity to the landing and bedroom accommodation. The principal suite offers a particularly generous retreat. Its bedroom opens into a fully fitted dressing room, where extensive wardrobes, drawers and shelving create an organised space for clothing and accessories. Plantation blinds complement the calm presentation, while the private en-suite includes a bath, separate shower enclosure and underfloor heating. Three further bedrooms provide flexibility for family and guests. Bedroom four is currently arranged as a reading room, illustrating how the accommodation can adapt to different household needs. In addition to the principal en-suite, two separate shower rooms are accessed from the landing. One incorporates a rainfall shower and two-person sauna, creating an opportunity to enjoy a little restorative time at home. The additional shower room provides further convenience for family and visitors.
Outside. The rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged over several levels, with brick retaining walls, paved pathways and established planting creating a succession of inviting spaces. A raised pond adds a focal point, while trees, shrubs and seasonal foliage soften the terraces. Beside the conservatory, a glazed canopy shelters an outdoor dining area, making it easy to take meals outside. A separate timber gazebo provides a comfortable setting for seating and conversation, with further places to pause among the planting. The different levels give the garden character and variety, allowing a quiet morning coffee close to the house or an afternoon gathering on an upper terrace. Outdoor lighting, electrical sockets and a water tap support its everyday use. To the front, the driveway provides parking for up to four cars alongside the garage. An EV charging point was installed in 2026, when the garage consumer unit was also upgraded plus capacity to park up to four vehicles
Further practical features include solar panels with battery storage, a combination boiler installed in 2021 and a monitored security system incorporating cameras and alarms. The boarded loft offers shelving throughout and foil insulation, while the front door, back door and conservatory locks operate with the same key.
Location & Lifestyle. The Chorley setting combines access to town amenities with opportunities to enjoy the surrounding green spaces. Yarrow Valley Country Park provides a destination for walks and fresh air, while Chorley railway station offers connections towards Preston and Manchester. The home itself supports a varied daily routine, from working in the separate study to spending time together in the connected kitchen, conservatory and lounge. Its choice of reception rooms and outdoor seating areas allows both sociable occasions and quieter moments to find their own space.
Viewing Summary. With four bedrooms, a generous principal suite, three bath and shower rooms and a distinctive landscaped garden, this is a home with considerable flexibility. The wood-burning stove, bright conservatory and sauna add individual appeal, supported by thoughtful practical improvements. Contact Arnold & Phillips Chorley to arrange a viewing and experience the accommodation and setting in person.
