Property description
Having started its life as a detached true bungalow, this fabulous four/five bed executive detached residence has been extensively re-modelled and extended from the original by our clients to create a fabulous family home, the proportions of which will struggle to be matched and can only be truly appreciated through an internal inspection. Situated within a good-sized private plot, the property is located within the beautiful parish of Wrightington, an area as renowned for its blend of prestige country homes, as its picturesque West Lancashire countryside. However, despite its country credentials, the property is far from remote, with ease of access to the abundance of local shops and amenities within the neighbouring villages of Shevington and Standish, as well as ease of access to the M6 motorway, ensuring the commuter can enjoy convenient travel throughout the North-West and then retire to their rural retreat after a stressful day in the office, perhaps partaking in a relaxing walk with the family over the local countryside. Also worthy of particular note is the proximity to excellent schooling – always a serious consideration with any home of this type – with St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School within a short stroll, and the outstanding Standish High and Shevington High Schools only minutes away in the car.
Internally, the generously proportioned living spaces and well laid-out floor plan cannot fail to impress, affording in excess of 2,755 square feet of accommodation arranged over two inviting levels, entering via the entrance porch and into the reception hallway with its spindled staircase to the first floor, and continuing through into the main 19’ lounge which is a lovely bright space via the uPVC double glazed patio doors, which also provide a pretty view over the rear garden, whilst the feature fireplace with its inset coal-effect electric fire infuses a warm and cosy ambiance. A second bright sitting room is located to the front of the property, ensuring there are no family squabbles over the remote control, along with a third 12’ reception room, suitable for variety of uses, such as a playroom for the children, a formal dining room or, as in the case of our clients, a fifth bedroom, which would be ideal for an elderly relative, particularly as there is a well appointed three piece shower room located right next door.
The ground floor is completed by the 22’ open plan kitchen/diner, which provides a wonderfully sociable space for entertaining or those family dinners, being fitted with an extensive range of high gloss wall and base units in cream, with contrasting laminated work surfaces, and equipped with an integrated fridge/freezer. If one ventures up to the first floor, the feeling of never-ending space continues, with the sizeable landing providing access to four generous double bedrooms, the two largest of which boast smart three piece en-suite shower rooms, whilst there is a useful study for those who require some space to work from home, and the main family bathroom, which is fitted with a three piece suite in classic white, comprising of WC, pedestal wash hand basin and tiled bath.
Externally, the property enjoys a low maintenance frontage which accommodates a number of vehicles for off-road parking, with the driveway also providing access to the attached double garage, which also boasts a useful workshop to the rear. The rear garden is of a very good size and lovely and private, being mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs to the perimeter, a pond and a raised paved patio area, which is an ideal spot for a touch of al-fresco dining. This individual property simply must be viewed to appreciate the size of the accommodation
