Arnold and Phillips are pleased to bring to market this extended four-bedroom detached home, set within a private and desirable position on Hansby Close in Skelmersdale, West Lancs.
Thoughtfully designed and finished to a high standard, this is a property that combines generous living proportions with modern fittings, making it a strong choice for those seeking a long-term family home.
The house is set back from the road, with a broad driveway providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles, in addition to a detached garage that offers both storage and practicality. The frontage is well maintained, and the welcoming entrance porch immediately sets the tone for what lies inside, giving a sense of space and structure before stepping through into the main body of the home.
The bay-fronted living room at the front is particularly impressive, the kind of space that works equally well for quiet evenings or for larger gatherings when friends and family visit. The proportions allow for flexible furnishing, so it can be arranged to suit different needs, whether someone prefers a more open setting or a cosier, sectional layout. A convenient ground floor WC is positioned centrally, adding everyday functionality to the home.
Towards the rear, the house really comes into its own. The kitchen is a striking example of modern design, fitted with a wide range of wall, base and tower units that give excellent storage options, all finished with premium contrasting Quartz work surfaces. An integrated breakfast bar provides an informal dining or workspace, making it a versatile addition to the hub of the home. The open plan arrangement flows seamlessly into a dedicated dining area, creating a natural focal point for mealtimes, and then further through to a substantial family room extension. With three sets of bi-folding doors opening onto the rear garden, this space allows the outside and inside to work in harmony and makes entertaining easy, especially in warmer months when the garden becomes an extension of the living space.
Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms provide excellent accommodation. The main bedroom is notably large, benefitting from bespoke fitted wardrobes and a private en-suite bathroom, finished with quality fittings. The remaining bedrooms are also generously sized and tastefully decorated in neutral tones, making them simple to adapt as children’s rooms, guest spaces, or even a dedicated home office if required. A modern family bathroom serves these rooms well, offering a walk-in shower, WC and vanity unit.
The outside space continues the theme of practicality combined with style. The rear garden has been landscaped with care, offering both premium paved terraces for seating and dining, and a centrally positioned lawn that provides greenery and balance. Surrounding planting beds with established shrubs and trees bring privacy and character, while the overall layout ensures the garden can be enjoyed with minimal upkeep. It’s the kind of garden that works just as well for quiet mornings with a coffee as it does for larger family occasions.
Hansby Close itself is a popular residential location, valued for its peaceful setting while still being close to a wide range of amenities. Local schools are within easy reach, catering for all ages, and there are a variety of shops, supermarkets and leisure facilities nearby. For those needing to commute, excellent transport links are readily available, with the motorway network accessible in just a short drive, connecting easily to nearby towns and cities. Skelmersdale continues to benefit from ongoing investment in infrastructure and community amenities, adding to the appeal of the area for families and professionals alike.
Overall, this home offers a considered blend of space, style and convenience, with thoughtful details that make a difference in everyday living. For anyone seeking a property that can adapt to a growing family or provide ample space for working from home while still being close to schools, shops and transport, this is one that should be seen in person to fully appreciate the quality on offer.
