Set on a quiet corner of Essington Drive, this two-bedroom semi-detached home offers a practical, well-presented layout for first-time buyers or downsizers. The ground floor is light and airy with a lounge, dining kitchen and a convenient cloakroom W/C, while two large, neatly decorated bedrooms occupy the first floor. The house is freehold and in Council Tax Band B.
Outside, the property benefits from a generous, fenced rear garden with a wooden seating area and lawn — useful for entertaining or family use — plus off-street parking on the driveway. The house is of modern construction with gas central heating and average thermal performance in the walls.
Location is central Skelmersdale with local primary and secondary schools nearby and good mobile and broadband coverage. Note the wider area has higher-than-average crime and is classified as very deprived; buyers should consider this when assessing long-term resale or rental prospects.
The property is presented in good decorative order throughout but sits in a transitional neighbourhood with constrained rental demand. It represents an affordable, low-maintenance option for a buyer seeking a ready-to-move-in home or a modest investment, provided they accept local area challenges.
