Arnold & Phillips are pleased to present this generously extended three-bedroom family home, positioned along the popular Thurston in Skelmersdale, West Lancs. Thurston is a location that continues to appeal to buyers looking for everyday convenience paired with generous internal space. This is a property that has clearly been adapted with modern family life in mind, offering a layout that flows well and feels practical rather than overdesigned, while still allowing scope for a new owner to make it their own. From the front, the house sits comfortably within its plot and provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles to the rear. This is particularly useful for households with more than one car or for visitors, and it immediately adds to the ease of day-to-day living. The frontage feels straightforward and well cared for, giving a clear sense of a home that has been lived in and enjoyed. The main entrance opens into a spacious hallway, which helps set the tone for the rest of the property. There is room here to move without feeling confined, making it practical for busy mornings or returning home with shopping, children or pets. The hallway provides access to the ground floor rooms and creates a natural separation between spaces without breaking the overall sense of flow. To the front of the property is the fitted kitchen, which is sensibly positioned and well equipped for family use. A range of wall, base and tower units offer ample storage, while integrated appliances and contrasting work surfaces add a modern touch. The layout works well for everyday cooking and food preparation, keeping everything within easy reach and allowing the space to feel functional rather than crowded. The real highlight of the home lies to the rear, where the property has been extended to create a generous open-plan family living area. This space comfortably accommodates both dining and seating areas, making it ideal for family gatherings, entertaining or simply spending time together at the end of the day. Patio doors open directly onto the garden, helping the room feel connected to the outside and making it easy to move between indoor and outdoor spaces during warmer months. The proportions here are particularly noteworthy, as the room feels genuinely versatile and capable of adapting to different lifestyles, whether that’s a growing family or those who enjoy hosting. Upstairs, the first floor continues the theme of balance and practicality. There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which are comfortable doubles. All rooms are neutrally decorated, allowing buyers to move straight in without feeling the need for immediate cosmetic changes. The two larger bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, which help keep the rooms feeling uncluttered and maximise usable floor space. The third bedroom works well as a child’s room, guest bedroom or home office, depending on individual needs. The bathroom is modern and neatly finished, featuring a walk-in shower, WC and vanity wash hand basin. The overall design feels current and easy to maintain, providing a practical space for daily routines without unnecessary complexity. Externally, the garden has been designed with low maintenance in mind. A generous timber decking area offers a natural spot for outdoor seating, while the large, stoned section provides flexibility and could be adapted to suit a buyer’s requirements, whether that’s additional planting, play space or further seating. The inclusion of a detached garage adds another useful element, offering storage or secure parking depending on preference. The property extends to approximately 1,238 square feet and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing throughout, contributing to comfort and efficiency. Overall, it’s a home that offers space where it matters, with an extended layout that enhances everyday living rather than simply adding square footage. Thurston is well placed for access to a range of local amenities and retailers, making daily errands straightforward. Transport links are strong, with road connections allowing for easy travel across West Lancashire and beyond, which will appeal to commuters and families alike. Skelmersdale continues to develop as a practical and well-connected area, offering schools, leisure facilities and shopping options within easy reach. This is a property that offers a well-considered layout, generous living space and a location that supports modern family life. Internal inspection is highly recommended to fully appreciate how the space flows and how easily it could adapt to a variety of needs. Tenure: We understand the property to be Freehold, however prospective purchasers should seek to obtain verification of this from their solicitor. Council Tax Band B.
