Arley Drive, Lathom, WN8

Arnold & Phillips are pleased to present this superb four-bedroom detached home, quietly positioned within the attractive and well-regarded ‘Latune Gardens’ Wain Homes development on Arley Drive in Lathom, West Lancs.

Thoughtfully designed and professionally finished, this recently built property offers a comfortable and functional layout that will appeal to a wide range of buyers – particularly those looking for a modern, low-maintenance home in a location that balances convenience with a sense of calm.

Tucked away in a quiet location, the property enjoys a pleasant degree of privacy, with a private driveway offering space for multiple vehicles and the added benefit of an attached garage for secure parking or additional storage. The smart brick exterior and clean architectural lines of the house set a confident tone on approach, while the neat frontage is easy to maintain and sits well within this attractive residential pocket.

Stepping inside, the entrance hall is well proportioned and neatly presented, with access to the principal ground floor rooms flowing naturally from here. The interior is styled in a clean, contemporary finish that feels fresh and ready to move into, yet neutral enough for a buyer to add their own character over time. To the rear of the property, the open-plan kitchen and dining area forms the hub of the home. This space is both practical and sociable, with a modern fitted kitchen offering a full range of integrated appliances and a sleek mix of base, wall and tower units. A contrasting worktop and feature breakfast bar provide additional workspace as well as a casual seating option, while the adjoining dining area is more than capable of accommodating a full-size table for family meals or entertaining. Glazed patio doors open directly onto the rear garden, making this a naturally usable space throughout the year.

A centrally located downstairs WC adds convenience, while the main living room is positioned to the front of the house and offers a generous footprint. It’s an inviting space that can comfortably handle a range of seating configurations, whether for relaxed evenings in or more formal hosting. The layout of the ground floor allows for good separation between entertaining and quieter zones, offering a helpful balance for busy day-to-day life.

Upstairs, the first floor offers four bedrooms – all well-proportioned and presented in a soft, neutral palette. The main bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, which has been finished with the same attention to quality seen throughout the house. The remaining three bedrooms are each large enough to function as full-time bedrooms, home offices or multi-use spaces depending on requirements, and are all served by a modern family bathroom. The main bathroom features a bath, separate enclosed shower, WC and basin, and is finished with contemporary tiling that complements the rest of the home’s understated but stylish look.

One of the standout features here is the rear garden, which the current owners have thoughtfully landscaped to make the most of the plot. Not overlooked to the rear and backing onto established trees, it offers a real sense of privacy and shelter. The design includes a generous paved terrace – ideal for outdoor seating and social occasions – along with a central lawn and well-stocked flower beds running along the borders. A combination of timber fencing and mature planting gives the garden a well-composed, finished feel without being high maintenance.

The location is particularly well suited to family life and professionals commuting to nearby towns. Lathom enjoys a strong reputation for its blend of semi-rural charm and access to modern conveniences and Arley Drive is no exception. A range of local amenities, including independent shops, supermarkets and dining options, can all be reached within a short drive, while the area is also home to several highly regarded schools at both primary and secondary level. For those needing to travel further afield, transport links are excellent, with Ormskirk, Burscough and Skelmersdale all nearby, and easy access to the M58 and M6 motorways. Rail connections to Liverpool, Preston and Manchester are also available via Ormskirk or Burscough Bridge stations.

This home will suit buyers looking for the reassurance of a recently built property, complete with around nine years remaining on the NHBC warranty, and the comfort of modern building standards, A-rated energy efficiency and low upkeep costs. Gas central heating and double glazing are already in place, alongside a premium home EV charger and five solar panels, the home is ready to be moved into without the need for costly updates. For anyone searching for a practical and well-located home that’s easy to enjoy from day one – with enough space and flexibility to grow into over time – this property is well worth considering.
