Briar Avenue, Chorley, PR7

Finding a first home that gives you a little room to grow can make all the difference. And that's exactly what makes this home on Briar Avenue worth a closer look.

Set on a popular and established residential development in Euxton, this three-bedroom home offers comfortable living space, a particularly useful ground floor extension and a location that makes everyday life easy. Whether you're taking your first steps onto the property ladder or looking for somewhere to start family life, there's plenty here to appreciate.

A practical welcome home

Arriving home, there's driveway parking for two cars to the front, before stepping into a useful entrance porch. It's one of those features you might not initially think much about, but somewhere to leave shoes, coats and even a pushchair is always welcome when you're juggling busy mornings.

From here, the entrance hall provides access to the main ground floor rooms, the family bathroom and the staircase to the first floor.

A living room you'll want to come back to

The lounge is a lovely, comfortable space, tastefully decorated and has fabulous bow window. It's a lovely spot for family photographs, a few flowers or those little personal touches that make a house feel like home.

It's also the room the current owners find themselves using most. Their evenings tend to end here, relaxing with the dogs after a day at work. They describe it as a particularly cosy room in winter, while in warmer months it maintains a comfortable temperature throughout much of the day.

It's easy to see why this is the room they enjoy spending time in.

Extra space that makes everyday living easier

The kitchen provides a modern and practical space, with a good amount of cupboard storage and plenty of room for the everyday essentials of family life.

But it's the additional ground floor extension that really gives this home something extra.
Currently used as a dining room, it creates a separate area for sitting down together, hosting friends or enjoying family meals without taking over the main living room. It's also a wonderfully flexible space, with plenty of potential to adapt as your needs change. Perhaps a playroom, a second sitting area or simply somewhere to gather around the table.

The owners particularly enjoy entertaining here, and it's also the room that benefits from some of the best natural light in the house.
French doors open directly onto the rear garden, bringing the outside in and making it a lovely space to enjoy when the weather allows.

A garden with options

The rear garden is currently arranged as a paved courtyard-style space, making it relatively straightforward to look after. There's an outside seating area tucked into the back corner, a useful side access and a separate area for bins.

The garden enjoys the morning sun and, during the height of summer, continues to catch the light until around 6pm. The current owners enjoy taking a coffee outside when the weather is kind.

If you're someone who enjoys gardening, there's also scope to introduce a lawn or planting areas and make the space your own.

Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms, all of which the owners describe as quiet spaces. Two are doubles and the third, a good sized single.
The family bathroom is conveniently positioned on the ground floor, fitted with a modern three-piece suite including a shower over the bath. A location that makes family life easier

Euxton is popular for good reason, and Briar Avenue is particularly well placed for enjoying what the area has to offer.

Everyday shops and amenities are within walking distance, as are several local primary schools. For growing families, the nearby Euxton Primrose Hill Primary School and Euxton Church of England Primary School are notable choices, both having received Outstanding Ofsted ratings.

For a change of scenery, the owners particularly enjoy walking the Buckshaw loop and exploring Redsnap Wood. There's also a Starbucks and The Kitchen Tap Room at Buckshaw Village for a coffee, something to eat or something stronger!

Commuters are well catered for too, with both Leyland and Chorley close by and convenient road links to the M6 and M61 within a short drive.

One particularly useful local tip from the owners: traffic can build up around the Spine Road at school-run times, but there's an alternative route out through the back of the development if you want to avoid the traffic lights.

Ultimately, what the current owners will miss most is the quiet street, the convenient location and having everyday amenities so close at hand.

Briar Avenue is a home that offers a lovely starting point, with extra living space, three bedrooms and the flexibility to make it your own as life moves forward.
