31 Skelmerdale Way is a recently renovated five-bedroom family house that blends contemporary systems with generous living space. The open-plan living and large kitchen/diner — complete with underfloor heating and a central island — suit busy family life and entertaining. Automated heating, lighting and a multiroom audio system add modern convenience and a high-spec finish throughout.
The rear garden is private and secluded, with a paved patio for outdoor dining and a decent plot for play or landscaping. Off-street block‑paved parking for three cars replaces the original garage, which has been converted to extend internal living space and may limit covered parking options. The home was constructed/updated recently (c.2021) so many fittings are new and insulation values are good.
Practical factors to note: the property runs on electricity with an air-source heat pump and smart controls, which typically reduces carbon footprint but may leave energy bills sensitive to tariff choice. Council tax is above average. The house sits in a very low-crime, affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, close to well-regarded local schools — a strong location for families seeking space and modern convenience.
Overall this is a turnkey, high-spec family home for buyers wanting contemporary systems, generous living areas and a secure, private garden. Buyers seeking a separate garage or the absolute lowest running costs should consider the converted garage and electrified heating when viewing.
