-[about your new home]-

Welcome to your new Huncote Avenue home, where you have plenty of space to play with, and that starts before you have even stepped through the front door.

The front has been designed with practicality in mind, with a broad paved area providing plenty of room for off-road parking and keeping day-to-day arrivals nice and straightforward. Gated side access is another useful addition, giving you a direct route around the property without having to come through the house.

Step inside and you arrive in a defined entrance hallway, giving you a proper introduction to the house before the main living accommodation begins. Rather than opening immediately into the lounge, you have a separate circulation space that allows the ground floor rooms to retain their own identity.

From the hallway, your main living and dining room opens into a long, connected space that allows each end to serve a different part of your day.

At the front, the lounge gives you a comfortable place to switch off. The broad window brings daylight deep into the room, while the chimney breast creates a strong focal point around the fireplace.

Move towards the rear, and the atmosphere naturally shifts into your dining space. A dining table can sit comfortably here, giving you a space that can stay set up for meals rather than improvising around a kitchen worktop. Breakfast before work, homework at the table, dinner at the end of the day and longer evenings with friends can all happen within the same part of the house.

The French doors behind the dining area are key to how this space works. They bring additional daylight through the rear of the room and, once opened, give you a direct route outside. In summer, the dining area effectively becomes the link between your indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces, so food and conversation can move between the two without the evening feeling divided between people inside and people in the garden.

Your kitchen is generous enough to handle everyday cooking without feeling like you have to clear everything away before you can start. Cream shaker-style cabinetry runs around the room, while white metro tiling keeps the walls bright, while the pale tiled floor gives you a practical finish underfoot.

The sink sits beneath the rear-facing window, bringing natural light onto one of the kitchen's main working areas. There is also space for a tall fridge freezer and under-counter appliances, while the amount of cabinetry gives you somewhere to keep everyday cookware, crockery and food supplies without filling the visible surfaces.

You also have a door which takes you directly outside, which becomes particularly useful when the garden is in use. Drinks, food, and barbecue supplies can go straight from the kitchen to the patio without travelling through the dining room.

There's an added benefit to the ground floor in the form of an additional reception room. How you use it is entirely up to you. It could become a quieter sitting room away from the main lounge, somewhere to read or watch television when you want a little separation from the rest of the house. If you work from home, there is enough independence here to create a dedicated office without bringing your working day into the living room. The room could also be used as sleeping accommodation. That flexibility could be useful when guests stay, but its real strength is that you gain an additional reception room without compromising any of the three bedrooms upstairs.

Outside, the rear of the house is arranged for spending time there rather than simply looking after it. The predominantly paved garden gives you a broad, usable surface for outdoor furniture, with enough room to create separate places for sitting, eating and entertaining.

The covered timber bar is the garden's most individual feature. Set slightly apart from the house, the bar gives the far end of the garden a completely different purpose. That changes what entertaining at home can look like. Open the rear doors from the dining room, bring food through from the kitchen, and you have several connected places for people to gather. Dinner can begin inside or on the patio, drinks can move towards the bar later on, and you still have the lounge at the front when you eventually head back indoors. On quieter days, the garden gives you an easy place for coffee, lunch outside, or an evening drink without needing a special occasion.

Back inside and upstairs, the bedrooms give you even more freedom to shape the house around your lifestyle.

Your main bedroom is a comfortable double with a broad window bringing plenty of daylight across the room. Grey carpeting and neutral walls create a quieter backdrop, leaving you plenty of freedom to introduce your own colours and furniture.

The second bedroom is easily able to accommodate freestanding furniture while retaining useful open floor area. You could use it as a dedicated dressing room, turn it into another bedroom, or create a home office where work can remain completely separate from the downstairs living areas.

The third bedroom is ideal as a child's room. There's room for a single bed alongside a freestanding wardrobe, with space for toys and storage. As your needs change, the room can change with them. It could begin as a nursery or child's bedroom, later become a study, or provide a dedicated hobby room without taking over one of the larger bedrooms.

The bathroom brings considerably more personality than a purely white suite. White metro tiles line the walls, while the shower area shifts to a herringbone pattern that draws your attention to the generous walk-in enclosure.

Underfoot, the monochrome patterned flooring introduces a much stronger decorative element. The timber-fronted floating vanity adds warmth alongside the white basin, while a heated towel rail and frosted window complete the room.

Huncote Avenue benefits from being situated not too far out from St Helens town centre, and is surrounded by plenty of wonderful local parks to enjoy. For starters, there's the nearby greenery with Ashurst Children's play area a moment's stroll away, backing on to Ashurst Primary School.

Just beyond this is Sutton Brook Greenway, with The Burgies Woodland in the opposite direction. There's also Stanley Bank Meadow, and Sankey Valley Park all within a short drive away. This makes it incredibly easy to enjoy walks in the great outdoors with dogs, family and friends.

The nearest train station is St Helens Central which is a short drive away, ensuring you remain well-connected.

For drivers, the A580 is nearby which connects across to Liverpool in the West, and North Manchester in the East. The M62 motorway is just beyond St Helens to the South, also connecting across to Liverpool whilst crossing to Manchester and over the Pennines to Yorkshire. It also joins the M6, making the North West, Lake Districts and Cheshire and the West Midlands, all easy to reach.
