Inskip, Skelmersdale, WN8

Arnold & Phillips are pleased to offer this well-kept first-floor apartment along the ever-popular Inskip in Skelmersdale, West Lancs.

Inskip is an area that continues to appeal to those looking for convenience, good commuting options and a friendly, established neighbourhood. The apartment itself has been thoughtfully maintained, giving you the sense that you could move in without having to worry about immediate updates or improvements.

Approaching the building, residents benefit from plenty of communal on street parking, which is always reassuring if you’re coming home after work or hosting friends. The building is accessed through a secure communal entrance, and once inside you’ll notice the communal areas are clean, bright and well kept, setting the tone for the rest of the property. Stairs lead up to the first floor where the apartment is located, and the landing outside the front door feels open and tidy, giving a pleasant first impression.

Stepping into the apartment, a welcoming hallway opens out comfortably, offering more space than you might initially expect. There’s a useful storage cupboard here, ideal for keeping coats, shoes, cleaning bits or anything else you’d rather tuck neatly away. It helps keep the main living areas feeling uncluttered, which is always appreciated in an apartment layout.

The main living room is a generous space, shaped in a way that’s easy to furnish and still leaves room for both a comfortable sitting area and a dining table. It feels relaxed and inviting, helped by its sensible proportions and the way the room is arranged to naturally accommodate everyday life. This is the sort of room where you can imagine unwinding in the evening, but also hosting a few friends without feeling pushed for space. From here, the room flows directly into the kitchen, allowing the two spaces to work nicely together.

The kitchen itself has been fitted with a range of modern wall, base and tower units, providing plenty of storage and creating a clean, organised feel. Integrated appliances and contrasting work surfaces tie everything together in a simple, modern finish. It’s a practical set-up that makes good use of the space, and the layout allows for easy movement while cooking or preparing meals. Whether you prefer a quick breakfast before heading out or enjoy taking your time in the kitchen, it’s a space that supports both with ease.

Back through the hallway, the apartment offers two well-sized bedrooms. The main bedroom is a comfortable double with room for typical bedroom furniture without feeling tight or restrictive. The second bedroom is a generous single, ideal for a child’s room, home office or guest space depending on your needs. Both are decorated to a good standard, keeping the overall feel of the apartment cohesive and ready for its next owner. The bathroom is modern and tiled throughout, fitted with a bath and overhead shower, WC and wash hand basin, offering everything required for a functional and pleasant day-to-day routine.

Although the property does not include its own private garden, the communal setting and surrounding greenery of the development create a calm and settled atmosphere. The area itself is well regarded, particularly for those who value local convenience. Nearby you’ll find a range of amenities including shops, everyday services and larger supermarkets, all close enough to make errands simple. Skelmersdale offers strong road connections too, with routes to the M58 and surrounding towns easily reached, making commuting or visiting nearby centres straightforward. Public transport options are also accessible, contributing to the overall practicality of the location.

For those with an active lifestyle or who simply appreciate having open space nearby, there are parks, walking routes and leisure facilities within easy reach. Families and first-time buyers will also value the selection of local schools and community amenities, while investors may note the strong demand for rental properties in the area.

Altogether, this apartment presents a clean, modern and easy-to-maintain home in a position that continues to grow in popularity. It’s well suited to working professionals, first-time buyers or those looking for a reliable investment, and with no onward chain, the process of securing it could be pleasingly straightforward.
