## Description

Arnold & Phillips are delighted to bring to market an exciting opportunity to acquire this triple-fronted five-bedroom detached family home with integrated annex, residing within a generous plot along the popular Church Road in Banks, West Lancs.

Situated in the heart of the village centre, this renovated family home resides within comfortable walking distance of a host of local amenities and independent retailers, whilst also enjoying good transport and commuter links. Highly regarded local primary and secondary schools reside nearby, making this an ideal family home. 

Approached via a private driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles, access is granted via the front entrance porch with one received into a spacious and naturally lit main entrance hallway. The front of the property enjoys two spacious bay-fronted main reception rooms, both of which are centred around ornate feature fireplaces. The far left of the property enjoys a fully integrated large annex, which has recently been renovated and enjoys a large main bedroom, central bathroom with adjoining utility room and an open-plan kitchen and living area, which leads outside via premium patio doors. The rear of the main property again benefits from a fully fitted shaker kitchen, complete with an array of wall, base and tower units, featuring a selection of integrated appliances and premium contrasting work-surfaces and central feature island. This spacious kitchen in turn flows into an ample dining area and further into a third family living area, all of which are flooded in an abundance of natural light via premium bi-folding patio doors. 

The first floor enjoys a further four double bedrooms, all of which are beautifully decorated and enjoy a pleasant outlook over the surrounding area, with the main bedroom enjoying tiled en-suite bathroom facilities and a walk-in dressing room. The property is well-served by a modern family bathroom providing bath, separate shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin. 

Externally, a detached single garage resides within a generous plot which is predominantly laid to lawn and is not directly overlooked. A large, flagged patio terrace links both the annex and the main house and provides an ideal place in which to entertain and dine al-fresco. The sprawling lawns are bordered by a selection of trees, plants and timber fencing. Extending to a substantial 2,497 square foot or prime living accommodation and benefitting from integrated annex facilities, gas central heating and double glazing throughout, internal inspection is highly advised and early viewing will be essential to avoid disappointment.
