We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Arnold & Phillips are delighted to present this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, positioned along the well-regarded Graham Avenue in Lostock, Chorley, and offering an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a property with genuine scope to modernise and add value.
Set within an established residential setting, this home enjoys a convenient location close to a range of local amenities, transport links and everyday essentials, while also providing the calm and comfort often associated with bungalow living.
Requiring refurbishment throughout, the property presents a rare blank canvas for those looking to create a home tailored entirely to their own style and requirements.
Importantly, the property benefits from a recently installed drainage system and has been fully insulated, providing a solid foundation for further improvements.
The accommodation extends to approximately 745 square feet and is arranged across one floor, briefly comprising a central hallway, a generous living and dining room, fitted kitchen, sunroom, two well-proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom.
The layout is both practical and versatile, with plenty of potential for reconfiguration or cosmetic enhancement, subject to any necessary consents.
The living/dining room offers a bright and spacious main reception area, ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike, while the adjoining sunroom adds an extra layer of flexibility and could serve equally well as a morning sitting area or garden-facing retreat.
The kitchen is ready for renewal but offers a solid footprint from which to create a stylish and functional space.
Both bedrooms are well-sized, making the property suitable for a range of purchasers, including downsizers, investors, or buyers looking for a manageable home with renovation potential.
The bathroom has been updated within the last three years, offering a more modern space that can be used immediately while other improvements are undertaken.
Externally, the property benefits from enclosed gardens, a private driveway, and a detached garage, all of which add to the practicality and long-term appeal of the home.
Offered with no onward chain, this is an exciting opportunity to acquire a bungalow in a popular Chorley location with huge potential to improve, personalise and enjoy for years to come. EPC Rating: D
