" For those searching for a property in which to raise their young ones, for a home rather than simply a house, then one need not look any further than this pristine four bed detached residence; a property which exudes warmth from the first step across the threshold and which infuses an inviting, homely ambiance. This really is a family home, something which is hard to replicate simply through décor or fixtures and fittings, instead being an enviable quality which is engrained within its make-up. The property is located in the desirable area of Whitley, occupying a choice position within this attractive residential development and a lovely location in which to raise a family. Located but a short walk from local bus routes and a brief journey to the motorway network, transport links are perfect for those with or without their own transport, ensuring that both the thriving village centre of Standish or the bustling town of Wigan are within easy reach, as are highly regarded local schools, which is clearly an important consideration for a property of this type. The property itself has a pleasing layout which flows perfectly from one well proportioned living space to the next, measuring in excess of 1,580 square feet in total, entering via a welcoming entrance porch and proceeding into the vast 15' dining room with its open tread staircase to the first floor, which really does set the tone for the accommodation, offering an abundance of space for those family gatherings, as well as being flooded with light via the large picture window to the front elevation. One moves into the equally spacious 15' lounge, which pervades a lovely cosy ambiance which is only accentuated by the decorative feature fireplace with its free-standing electric fire, and beyond a delightful conservatory provides a perfect spot for relaxing away the stresses of the day whilst enjoying the pretty aspect over the rear garden. The good-sized kitchen has been lovingly maintained and is in pristine condition, but would perhaps benefit from some upgrading, offering a new owner the opportunity to infuse their own style and taste; fitted with a comprehensive range of Oak-effect wall and base units with contrasting laminated work surfaces and complimentary tiling, and equipped with a range of integrated appliances including high-level double electric oven and halogen hob with extractor canopy. There is also a handy off-lying ground floor WC, which is always useful in a home with young children. To the first floor, via the sizeable landing, one discovers the four good-sized bedrooms, all of which are bright and well presented, with the two largest benefiting from built-in furniture. The smart family shower room with its stylish tiling and chrome-effect heated towel rail completes the accommodation, having been recently re-fitted with a modern three piece suite in classic white, comprising of WC, pedestal wash hand basin and shower cubicle with electric shower unit, but at 10' is easily large enough to accommodate a bath, if required. Externally, two driveways provide off-road parking facilities for a number of vehicles, as well as giving access to the two separate garages, giving the potential to use one as a workshop or perhaps to convert to additional accommodation, if required, subject to the usual consents. The pretty gardens to the front and rear are well maintained, mainly laid to lawn with well stocked planted borders, with the rear being very private and boasting a paved patio area which just yearns for those family barbeques. Viewing of this beautiful home is highly recommended. "
