Description
An ideally located family home in a popular residential area on the outskirts of St Helens town centre, surrounded by everything you could possibly need to flourish!
Purchased brand new almost ten years ago, a simple yet effective internal layout is paired with excellent outdoor space to present you with an ideal hassle-free home to make your own.
-[ABOUT YOUR NEW HOME]-
Elevated slightly off from Leighton Drive, your new home welcomes you with off-road parking and a paved pathway to the door - perfect for decorative features or lighting to make an outstanding first impression.
Once inside, the entrance hallway will guide you through the central heart of the property, providing swift and convenient access to all rooms. Its grey neutral colour palette provides an excellent blank canvas to work with, leading to a downstairs W/C, multiple storage cupboards, the staircase up to the first floor, and the kitchen/dining and living areas.
Connected by tiled wood effect flooring, the hallway leads through to the living room at the rear of the property, a spacious social hub that can be configured entirely to your liking; this area boasts patio doors out into the rear garden.
The kitchen is a well-sized monochromatic space directly adjacent to the entrance doorway, and slightly larger than comparable homes of similar internal configurations. It has an abundance of storage space with plenty of cupboard units and wall-mounted options - with plenty of surface area for food preparation and countertop appliances. An integrated gas hob is additionally present with space for an under-counter washer and dryer.
Outside, the rear garden is a particularly pleasant spot to relax and unwind in the sunny months. An immediate paved patio area can comfortably accommodate a table for two, creating a relaxed atmosphere on a summer evening. There's a central lawn area comprising the majority of the garden, with plenty of perimeter space for planting or maintaining the current features - perhaps even switching it out for decorative stones or ornaments. The choice is entirely yours!
Back inside and up to the first floor, a storage cupboard can be found directly above the staircase. To the front of the property is the family bathroom, adjacent to the second bedroom, which can comfortably accommodate a double bed and features a built-in wardrobe.
The third bedroom located at the rear serves perfectly as a single bedroom, office space or larger nursery area. The master bedroom, also found to the rear, is fantastically sized. Like the third bedroom, it benefits from great rear views out over the rear garden and also comes with its own en-suite shower room.
-[LIVING ON LEIGHTON DRIVE]-
Leighton Drive has it all when it comes to an outstanding family location with virtually everything you could need on your doorstep for years to come.
First and foremost, it's a prime area for school catchment. Eaves Academy, Sutton Academy, St Annes and Sherdley Primary School are all within easy access, with plenty more nearby.
Leighton Drive is also directly between St Helens Junction and Lea Green train stations, situated on the Liverpool to Manchester line with services directly between Liverpool Lime Street, Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Airport. There are also services to Manchester Victoria, Wigan North Western, and Transpennine services across to Newcastle via Leeds, York and Darlington.
There are a number of local conveniences nearby, such as Aldi and Ravenhead Retail Park into St Helens town centre. The actual town centre of St Helens can be reached in less than ten minutes, both by car or bus, depending on your preferred mode of transport.
There's no shortage of outdoor spaces nearby to enjoy, either. Sherdley Park, with its expansive golf course, is a pleasant stroll nearby, in addition to the wonderful Clock Face Country Park to the south. The M62 motorway is also a short drive to the south, providing drivers ease of access over to Liverpool and Manchester, and connecting with the M6 for the North West, Cheshire and the West Midlands.
