Eastleigh, Skelmersdale, WN8

Arnold and Phillips are pleased to present this spacious and well-considered five/six-bedroom detached home, tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in a sought-after part of Skelmersdale. Occupying a generous plot and spanning over 1,900 square feet, this property has been designed with family living in mind and offers both the space and flexibility to suit a range of modern lifestyles.

The frontage provides ample parking and access to the double garage, with space in front suitable for several vehicles. A neat pathway leads to the main entrance, which opens into a wide and welcoming hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the property — clean, open and well-structured.

On entering, the hallway offers clear sightlines into the key areas of the home, giving a good sense of the generous proportions throughout. Off to the right is the kitchen and breakfast room — a functional space ideal for everyday meals, morning routines or for use as a separate smaller kitchen to assist the main kitchen. This room has been arranged to keep things practical and easy to navigate, with space for a washer and dryer as well as enough surface area and storage to handle the demands of a busy household.

Moving towards the rear of the home is the main kitchen and family room, which serves as the real hub of the property. Larger in size than the breakfast kitchen, it combines cooking, dining and informal living space all in one, with quality appliances and features such as a double oven, dishwasher, under counter fridge, under floor heating and LED under counter lighting, this space offers a layout that’s easy to live in and adapt. Whether you’re cooking while keeping an eye on children, or hosting friends on the weekend, this room gives you that extra breathing space that so many families appreciate. The connection between the interior and the garden is a particular highlight here, as doors open directly onto one of the patio areas, which works well during warmer months for outdoor meals or garden gatherings.

To the left of the hallway is the primary family lounge — a well-proportioned room with enough wall space for larger furniture pieces while still feeling balanced, as well as a beautiful feature fireplace with gas real-flame fire and dual aspect windows. It’s a space that can comfortably serve as the main entertainment or relaxing zone, and the size gives it flexibility for those who prefer a more formal setting or need a quieter area separate from the kitchen space. Completing the downstairs is a WC tucked away conveniently near the entrance — a simple but essential feature for any busy family home.

Upstairs, the layout continues to work well. The master bedroom sits at one end of the landing, offering a private and calm space to retreat to. It includes an en suite shower room and a walk-in wardrobe, which is a genuinely useful addition, removing the need for bulky wardrobes in the sleeping area and allowing for a cleaner, more open feel. The four additional bedrooms vary in size but are all practical, easily accommodating children, guests or even home working spaces depending on the needs of the buyer. The family bathroom, finished in a classic three-piece suite, services the remaining bedrooms and is ideally placed for convenience.

The garden is another strong point, with a layout and level of maturity that’s not always easy to find. Fully enclosed and not overlooked, it offers a good sense of privacy and security whilst the South and West facing aspects ensure the sunshine can be enjoyed throughout the day into the evening. There’s a mix of well-kept lawn and established shrubbery, plus a couple of patio areas that give you options for seating, entertaining or simply enjoying the outdoors. There’s enough space for children to play safely, pets to roam, or for the addition of raised beds or other personal touches if gardening is a passion. Further features of this impressive space include outdoor sockets, outdoor lighting, shower area and additional shed to the side of the property - ideal for storage.

Skelmersdale itself continues to grow in popularity with buyers, largely due to its combination of easy commuting routes and improving local infrastructure. This property is particularly well placed for access to local schools, shops and green spaces, and is within easy reach of the M58, making travel to surrounding towns and cities straightforward. The area also benefits from a number of local leisure and sports facilities, including parks, gyms and walking routes, making it a practical and appealing place to settle long term.

For larger families or those looking for a home with space to grow, this property offers a rare opportunity to secure a generously sized, well-appointed home in a private and peaceful spot. Its layout supports modern living in a way that many newer properties don’t quite manage, and the balance between shared family areas and personal bedrooms has clearly been well thought through.

Viewing of this beautiful home is essential to fully appreciate all on offer within.
