Summary - GLENBURN COTTAGE, SUMMER STREET, SKELMERSDALE WN8 6XJ
5 bed 5 bath Detached
Spacious family home on a large private plot with gated parking.
Five double bedrooms each with private en-suite bathroom
This substantial five-bedroom detached house offers generous, light-filled family living across multiple levels on a very large plot in a private gated development. The home’s layout centres on a double-height entrance and a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living area with bi-fold doors that connect to a newly paved patio and growing lawn — ideal for indoor-outdoor family life and entertaining.
All five bedrooms have en-suite access and the main bedroom includes a dressing area with an en-suite and Velux balcony window that frames views toward the woodland and River Tawd. Practical spaces include a ground-floor study, utility room, integral garage with electric shutter and underfloor heating on each level for consistent warmth throughout.
The property is a freehold detached home of circa 2,139 sq ft constructed around 2003–2006, finished to a contemporary standard with double glazing and fitted kitchen appliances. It sits in a comfortable neighbourhood with good primary and secondary school options nearby and easy access to local leisure and transport amenities.
Notable considerations: the record shows construction dated 2003–2006, so the home is not a recent new build despite promotional wording. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, which may affect home working or streaming. One nearby secondary school holds an Inadequate Ofsted rating; families should check school zoning and catchment specifics. Otherwise the property presents a low flood risk and average local crime statistics.
