5 bedroom detached house for sale

Churcher Estates are proud to present this exceptional five-bedroom detached residence, perfectly positioned in the sought-after village of Bickerstaffe. Set within an impressive plot at just under 2 acres, this unique home offers over 4,000 square feet of versatile living space, complete with a detached annex, established gardens, and superb equestrian facilities including six timber stables, a menage, a horse walker, and two enclosed fields. In addition, there is an opportunity to rent a further eight and a half acres directly to the rear of the property, ideal for equestrian or livestock purposes. A separate pond to the rear provides a tranquil space to relax and enjoy the surrounding countryside. The property enjoys beautiful open countryside views while being within easy reach of the motorway network and the bustling market town of Ormskirk.



Stepping into the property through the porch, you are welcomed straight into the heart of the home: a showstopping dining kitchen. Centred around a broad, quartz-effect island with breakfast seating for four, this beautifully finished space combines style with everyday practicality. Classic shaker cabinetry in a soft, contemporary tone is paired with long bar handles and deep pan drawers, all set against textured feature walling and a warm, easy-care quarry tiled floor. A statement cooking zone frames a range-style cooker with twin ovens, canopy hood, and the striking geometric splashback seen in the photos, while long stretches of worktop provide generous prep space. A wide sink is set beneath a broad window drawing in natural light and a pleasant garden aspect, and the whole room is illuminated by recessed downlights with a sleek quartet of pendant lights accenting the island.



The kitchen opens naturally into a relaxed breakfast area, perfect for casual meals, homework time, or guests lingering with a glass of wine while dinner is prepared. Practicality is woven in throughout, with discreet under-counter spaces for appliances and open shelving for spices and everyday essentials. From here, you can slip through to a well-equipped utility room and a boot room with guest cloakroom-ideal for country living, muddy paws, and school bags-keeping the main space calm and clutter-free. Whether you're hosting a crowd or enjoying quiet mornings, this flowing, sociable layout makes the kitchen the true hub of the home.



From here, double doors open into the living room, a warm and inviting space designed for comfort and relaxation. A large front-facing window fills the room with natural light, enhanced by soft, neutral tones and traditional plaid curtains. The focal point is a striking slate fireplace with a wood-burning stove, perfect for cosy evenings, and topped with a mounted television for modern convenience. The room is well-proportioned, with ample space for seating, currently arranged with plush reclining armchairs that add to the homely feel. Sleek tiled flooring gives a clean, contemporary edge, while the wooden sliding doors open directly into the kitchen, creating a seamless flow between the two spaces and allowing this room to function equally well for everyday family living or as a comfortable retreat at the end of the day.



To the rear of the property, the conservatory is a wonderfully light-filled retreat, with wrap-around windows and glazed doors leading to the garden. Finished with tiled flooring and ample space for seating, this room is perfect for enjoying the changing seasons while remaining comfortable indoors.



The first floor is home to three generously proportioned bedrooms, each beautifully presented and full of character. The principal bedroom is a spacious and stylish retreat, thoughtfully designed to blend comfort with contemporary touches. A striking feature wall with a modern textured brick-effect finish frames the large, upholstered headboard, creating a focal point behind the bed. Neutral carpeting underfoot adds warmth, while a wide window fills the room with natural light and offers a pleasant outlook.



Adjoining the bedroom is a unique and beautifully appointed en-suite shower room. The space is wrapped in dramatic natural stone-effect wall panels, giving it a spa-inspired atmosphere, complemented by a pebble-style floor in the shower area. The open, walk-in shower features contemporary fittings, while a sleek pedestal vanity with a vessel sink and rose gold tap adds a modern flourish. A matching WC completes the suite, with thoughtful decorative touches adding personality and character to this luxurious private bathroom.



The first floor also includes two further generously sized bedrooms, each with its own distinct character and charm. The first is a warm and inviting double room, featuring a striking wallpapered accent wall with a London-inspired motif, complemented by a classic wooden fireplace and wood-burning stove that add a sense of heritage and cosiness. A large window allows plenty of natural light to flood the space, making it ideal for use as a bedroom or a secondary sitting room.



The second bedroom is currently arranged as a home office and guest room, offering a versatile space that could easily adapt to a variety of needs. Bold, contemporary wallpaper is paired with vibrant red carpeting, creating a lively and inspiring environment. The room benefits from a large window overlooking the rear, ensuring a bright working or relaxing atmosphere.



Serving these rooms is the stylish family bathroom, which combines rustic charm with modern convenience. A clawfoot freestanding bathtub with traditional fittings takes centre stage, accompanied by a separate corner shower enclosure for flexibility. Twin vessel sinks mounted on a sleek vanity provide ample space for busy mornings, while the natural wood-panelled ceiling and slate-effect tiled floor create a warm, spa-like feel. Thoughtful shelving and storage solutions enhance both practicality and aesthetics, making this a truly welcoming and functional family space.



The second floor offers two further double bedrooms, one with its own private en-suite, making it ideal for guests, teenagers, or extended family members. These rooms enjoy charming, sloped ceilings and dormer windows, adding to their cosy and characterful appeal.



The detached annex is a superb addition, offering fully self-contained accommodation. A bright and airy lounge with vaulted ceilings and French doors opens directly onto the garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The fitted kitchen pairs warm wood cabinetry with striking teal subway tiles, and a spiral staircase leads to additional space above. A generous double bedroom and a modern shower room complete the interior, while a charming garden room with full-height windows and a glass roof lantern floods the space with natural light and frames tranquil views over the landscaped grounds.



Externally, the property is equally impressive. A generous gated driveway offers ample parking for cars, horseboxes, and trailers, while the landscaped gardens are immaculately maintained with manicured lawns, mature hedging, and thoughtfully planted borders. Several seating areas provide the perfect spots for dining, sunbathing, or simply enjoying the uninterrupted countryside views.



The land is a true asset, offering versatility and scope to suit a range of lifestyles. For equestrian buyers, the six timber stables, manege, and multiple paddocks are ready for immediate use, with the added benefit of adjoining land available to rent for those wishing to expand their facilities. For those without equestrian needs, these spaces could be adapted for hobby farming, storage, or recreational pursuits, ensuring the grounds add both practicality and opportunity to the overall offering.



This remarkable property delivers a rare combination of spacious living, adaptable facilities, and extensive land in a highly desirable location. Whether your ambitions lie in equestrian pursuits, agricultural projects, or simply enjoying the tranquillity and privacy of a rural setting, this home provides the perfect foundation to make those dreams a reality. With its ready-to-use amenities, versatile layout, and potential for further development, it represents not just a home-but a complete lifestyle opportunity.
