A wonderful opportunity to acquire a quite delightful barn conversion.

The property will have a broad appeal, and anyone with a passion for interesting homes will certainly be smitten. Accommodation highlights include entrance hallway, large lounge with open plan access to the dining room, breakfast kitchen, utility room, study, conservatory, downstairs cloaks/wc.

Externally the property offers gardens to the front and rear with lawned areas, mature borders, feature garden pond, patio area, and ample driveway parking to the side elevation. There is also separate driveway access to the detached garage. The property also benefits from central heating. Special mention should be given to the additional land set at the end of a short pathway from the main garden - this lovely additional garden area is private and borders open countryside, a perfect space to relax and ideal as a children’s play area.
Despite its rural location, Smithy Lane is well situated between the historic market town of Ormskirk and the popular seaside resort of Southport; within the area itself you will find a number of quiet village pubs nestled alongside the Leeds Liverpool canal, a rainbow trout fishery, and an 18-hole championship golf course. For those interested in education the area has a small collection of parish schools, including the area’s renowned coeducational independent school, Scarisbrick Hall, which combines traditional teaching with state of the art educational facilities and resources. All in all ‘Shearwater’ is an excellent family home that would appeal to those looking for a safe and tranquil environment in which to bring up their children.
