Overview
Certainly Not Your Average Semi. This immaculate barn conversion is the perfect semi-rural family home. It’s a short walk to school, has a versatile layout and has a wonderful 50m back garden that’s ideal for entertaining or just to let active kids play.
This spacious four-bedroom family home is unlike any other semi-detached - being half of a substantial barn conversion on the edge of a quiet village.
And as it occupies the rear half of the barn it’s set back from the road, with its own gated gravel drive and lovely south-facing private gardens.
All three main ground floor rooms offer views of the back garden. The lounge is spacious with a traditional cast iron log burner, there’s a separate dining room with access to a large conservatory where you can sit and enjoy views of the garden. These rooms are all interconnected either with doors or a large opening meaning to me there is a real feeling of light and space. This makes for a free-flowing space which is perfectly suited to family living.
The kitchen is modern with plenty of space in the fitted units and there’s even room for a small dining table which will be ideal for grabbing a quick lunch or sitting down with friends for a catch-up over a cuppa.
There’s also a handy utility room and a separate downstairs shower room with w/c.
Upstairs has 4 bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom.
There’s also a large storage area in the eaves, accessed from the front bedroom.
The whole house is in immaculate condition - and the same can be said for the substantial grounds.
There’s parking on the gated gravel drive for several cars. There is a large double garage, with an adjoining building with its own door access. If you’ve no need for such a substantial storage area the whole structure (which was a former dairy) could be converted into a home office, garden room or gym
There’s a lovely veranda seating area outside the kitchen and conservatory and a large lawned which stretches approx 50m from the house, with mature trees and a pond. The garden also has an orchard of apple and plum trees in the garden, has a greenhouse and attracts abundant wildlife.
The large south facing garden will get the sun throughout the day and will be perfect for summer BBQs or just letting the kids (or pets) safely burn off excess energy.
It’s only a five minute walk to the village primary school (rated “Good” by Ofsted), with older kids having a choice of “Good” or “Outstanding” secondary schools in nearby Kirkham, Broughton and Garstang.
Inskip is a quiet village with a school, a couple of churches and the Derby Arms pub. Chances are you’d head to nearby Great Eccleston, just 5 minutes drive away, for supplies or an evening out. There are two pubs, three restaurants, a bakery, a butcher, various shops, a cafe and a co-op convenience store. For a supermarket and many more shops, pubs and restaurants Kirkham is a 10-minute drive.
If you’re heading further afield it’s only 15 minutes in the car to the M55 and M6. It only takes around 25 minutes to drive to Preston City Centre and under half an hour if you wanted a day out on the beach at Blackpool.
This is an immaculate home on the edge of a peaceful village - perfect if you want a semi-rural spot to bring up your family or a quiet home with plenty of outside space to enjoy.
