-[about your new home]-
This detached bungalow immediately makes a lasting impression with its striking open views. As you pull up along the kerb, a sense of space and serenity greets you. There is also the added bonus of an attached garage for your convenience.
It has a slightly elevated position lending a sense of presence and poise, but it's the outlook that truly sets this home apart.
The views are uninterrupted and utterly calming, perfect for anyone craving a connection to nature and open sky. Whether you're sipping a morning coffee or simply pausing for a breath of fresh air, you'll be reminded daily just how rare it is to find countryside tranquillity like this, while still being within easy reach of nearby amenities.
Step inside Pinewoods and you are immediately greeted by the scale and scope of what this home could become. The hallway acts as the spine of the property, offering access to all principal rooms while giving you an instant feel for the proportions on offer. It is clear from the outset that this is a property of genuine potential, with a layout that lends itself beautifully to reimagining.
The living room spans the full depth of the home, offering an impressive sense of space and natural light. It is not difficult to imagine this space redefined as a formal lounge, a contemporary open-plan living and dining area, or even something more bespoke depending on your needs.
The kitchen, positioned at the rear, presents ample opportunity for transformation. There is scope for modern cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a breakfast area, all while enjoying views over the rear garden.
A separate utility space lies just off the kitchen, providing ideal storage for white goods, seasonal items, or bulk pantry essentials.
The bathroom, currently fitted with a pink suite, offers generous proportions and natural light via a high-level window. Whether you are looking to install a luxury rainfall shower, or a fully tiled wet room, the foundations are in place for something truly impressive.
There are three bedrooms in total. The master bedroom sits to the front of the home. The second double room overlooks the rear garden, offering a sense of privacy and quiet. The third room, while more compact, would make a comfortable single bedroom, dressing room, or private office. All bedrooms benefit from the bungalow's broad footprint, creating a rare opportunity for flexible use of space.
Throughout the home, the need for refurbishment is clear, but it is precisely this that makes Pinewoods so exciting. The proportions are generous, the layout is practical, and the potential is significant. With vision and investment, this property could be redefined into something quite remarkable.
Outside to the rear is your garden space, brimming with potential and ready to be reimagined. Whether you're envisioning a landscaped lawn, a contemporary courtyard or an entertaining area for friends and family, the potential here is unmistakable. The garden is sectioned into different levels, offering space for raised planting beds, storage, and seating zones. There is also a room located at the rear of the garage and accessible from the garden complete with sink and further storage.
You're starting with a generous footprint that allows you to plan the garden around your lifestyle rather than the other way around. It's rare to find outdoor space this adaptable, and with the right vision, it could become a true extension of the home.

Old Lane serves as one of the main routes through Rainhill village, with spectacular views out over the neighbouring Blundell's Hill and farmland. It's ideal for those seeking the perfect, peaceful lifestyle tucked on the perimeter of suburban living.
The nearest train station for commuting is Rainhill, which provides you with frequent rail services to Liverpool Lime Street in one direction, Newton-le-Willows, Manchester city centre and Manchester Airport in the other.
For road users, Jct 7 for the M62 motorway can be reached easily from the area, providing you with convenient access from Liverpool to the M6, North Manchester, and over the Pennines into Yorkshire.
Avid golfers will rejoice in having Blundells Hill Golf Club a short distance away, with the tranquil Whiston Woods just beyond.
There's no shortage of local schools within the catchment area either, which is perfect for families needing to consider educational facilities.
