Description
Upstairs, two generous double bedrooms and a versatile third offer plenty of flexibility for growing families, guests, or a home office. The family bathroom is fresh, clean, and ready for you to add your own personal touches. Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped for low maintenance living and backs onto peaceful green open space, providing a wonderful sense of privacy. The detached workshop/shed is a brilliant bonus—ideal for storage, hobbies, or even a garden office.
Living here is about more than just the house—it’s about the lifestyle. At the end of the road, you’ll find Orford Park, one of Warrington’s best loved green spaces, perfect for morning jogs, dog walks, and family days out. The park links directly to the Orford Jubilee Neighbourhood Hub, offering a gym, swimming pool, sports courts, and a welcoming café. Everyday conveniences are close at hand too, with local shops, supermarkets, and takeaways all within easy reach. Families will also appreciate the nearby schools and nurseries that help make the daily routine that little bit easier.
Getting around is simple, thanks to regular bus services, quick links into Warrington town centre, and easy access to the M62 and M6 motorways for commuters. Whether you’re heading to Manchester, Liverpool, or just into town for dinner and drinks, this location keeps you well connected.
