Arnold & Phillips are delighted to offer this beautifully presented four-bedroom detached, double-fronted home, set within a generous and private corner plot along the ever-popular Blaguegate Lane in Lathom, West Lancs. From the outset, this is a property that feels both substantial and welcoming, combining traditional character with thoughtful modern touches. It is the kind of home that suits growing families, professionals working from home, or anyone looking for space to breathe without feeling isolated from everyday amenities and transport links. Approached via a private driveway, the property immediately gives a sense of arrival, with ample off-road parking for several vehicles and well-tended gardens wrapping neatly around the frontage. The double-fronted period design adds symmetry and presence, while the mature planting and lawned areas soften the overall feel. Stepping through the entrance porch, you are welcomed into a hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the house, offering a sense of space and flow without feeling formal or imposing. There is a balance here between character and practicality that continues throughout. To the front of the home sit two generous main reception rooms, both enjoying impressive ceiling heights that enhance the feeling of openness without being overwhelming. Period-style features sit comfortably alongside modern feature fireplaces, creating rooms that feel equally suited to relaxed evenings, entertaining guests, or quieter moments with a book. These spaces are versatile and well-proportioned, allowing for a variety of furniture layouts without feeling restricted. Whether used as formal lounges, family sitting rooms, or a combination of living and working space, they adapt easily to changing needs. Adjoining to the rear left of the property is a third reception room, centred once again around a feature fireplace and benefiting from patio doors that lead directly out into the garden. This room naturally lends itself to being a more informal family space, a playroom, or even a home office with direct outdoor access. It connects the indoor and outdoor areas nicely, making it particularly useful during warmer months when the garden becomes an extension of everyday living. The rear of the property is home to a traditional farmhouse-style dining kitchen, thoughtfully fitted with a range of wall, base and tower units, integrated appliances, and contrasting work surfaces that provide both visual interest and practicality. The layout works well for daily family life, offering plenty of preparation space while still allowing room for a dining table where meals can be shared. An adjoining utility room provides additional storage and laundry facilities, helping to keep the main kitchen clutter-free, while a convenient ground floor WC adds to the home’s functionality. Completing the ground floor is an integrated garage, ideal for storage, workshop use, or potential future conversion, subject to the necessary consents, for those who may wish to increase the living space further. Upstairs, the first floor continues the sense of balance and proportion found throughout the home. There are four well-sized bedrooms, three of which are comfortable doubles, each decorated in neutral tones that allow a new owner to personalise with ease. The layout works particularly well for families, with space for children, guests, or dedicated home working areas, without compromising on privacy. The principal rooms enjoy pleasant outlooks over the surrounding gardens, adding to the feeling of calm and separation from the road. Serving the bedrooms is a modern, recently renovated family bathroom, finished to a high standard. The inclusion of a freestanding bath and walk-in double shower provides flexibility for busy mornings and relaxed evenings alike, while the contemporary vanity unit and elegant tiling complete a space that feels both practical and indulgent. It is a room that reflects the overall quality and attention to detail found throughout the property. Externally, the gardens are a real highlight. Wrapping around the property, they offer a combination of generous patio terraces and expansive lawns, bordered by established plants and shrubs that provide privacy and seasonal interest. The patio areas are well positioned for outdoor dining and social gatherings, making it easy to enjoy meals outside or entertain friends while keeping a close connection to the kitchen and rear reception room. The lawned sections provide plenty of space for children to play, gardening enthusiasts to indulge their hobby, or simply for relaxing in a quiet, green setting. Being situated on a corner plot, the garden feels particularly private and usable, with different areas to enjoy throughout the day. The property extends to approximately 1,905 square feet and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing, and a consistently high standard of presentation. It is a home that has clearly been well cared for, offering buyers the opportunity to move in with minimal immediate work required, while still leaving scope to adapt and evolve over time. Blaguegate Lane is well regarded within Lathom, offering a semi-rural feel while remaining well connected. The area provides easy access to local shops, schools, and everyday amenities, making it practical for family life. Nearby transport links connect efficiently to Ormskirk, Skelmersdale, and further afield towards Liverpool and Manchester, appealing to commuters and professionals alike. There are also countryside walks and green spaces close by, ideal for those who value outdoor leisure without sacrificing convenience. This is a home that manages to feel both impressive and comfortable, offering space, character, and flexibility in equal measure. It suits a wide range of lifestyles, from growing families to those seeking room to work and entertain under one roof. An internal inspection is highly recommended to appreciate how the layout, setting, and atmosphere come together in practice. Tenure: We understand the property to be Freehold, however prospective purchasers should seek to obtain verification of this from their solicitor. Council Tax Band D.
