Situated along Orrell Road, this characterful property offers far more space than first meets the eye, combining generous room proportions with traditional features and plenty of potential. The location is equally appealing, with well-regarded schools and nurseries, local shops and excellent motorway connections all within easy reach. Orrell Water Park is nearby for scenic walks, while popular local bars and restaurants, including The Post House, are just down the road, making this a wonderful location for those wanting amenities and leisure facilities close to home.

Stepping inside, a small entrance porch with attractive mosaic-style floor tiles immediately introduces the property's Victorian charm, opening into a welcoming hallway connecting the ground-floor accommodation. Two generously sized reception rooms offer fantastic flexibility, with the front lounge featuring a large window, characterful fireplace and plenty of space for furniture. The second reception room enjoys an outlook over the rear garden and would make a lovely formal dining room, additional sitting room or family space. Both rooms retain a traditional feel, with impressive proportions that are increasingly difficult to find in more modern properties.

To the rear, the beautiful cottage-inspired kitchen is another real highlight. Designed with a countryside feel, the room features an attractive central cooking area, an excellent range of cabinetry and generous worktop space, creating a warm and inviting environment. A useful utility room sits beyond the kitchen and, although requiring some finishing touches, provides valuable additional space for laundry appliances and storage.

Upstairs, the property offers three bedrooms, two of which are particularly generous in size. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the third bedroom provides comfortable space for a bed and additional furnishings. The spacious family bathroom is another welcome feature, offering a four-piece suite comprising a bath, separate walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC. A further staircase leads to the converted loft room, complete with Velux-style windows. Although the space requires completion and the relevant building regulation and planning approvals would need to be established, it offers exciting potential for additional accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.

Externally, the rear garden offers plenty of scope for improvement and personalisation. Currently requiring some attention, the space could be transformed into an attractive outdoor area to complement the character of the home. To the rear is a private gated access road providing the opportunity for off-road parking, while existing fence panels are available should a new owner wish to create a more enclosed garden.

Combining beautiful Victorian-style character, generously proportioned rooms, versatile living accommodation and further potential, this is a property with plenty to offer. With three bedrooms, two reception rooms, a characterful kitchen and additional loft space, it presents a fantastic opportunity to create a wonderful long-term family home in a highly convenient Orrell location.

Offered chain free, early viewing is recommended to appreciate the space, character and potential this property has to offer.
