About this property

Utterly charming from first glance to final detail, this gorgeous stone cottage strikes the perfect balance between beautiful period features and sympathetic, premium-quality, modern interior design. Impeccably presented throughout, it is a home where character and contemporary comfort sit effortlessly side by side.

The appeal begins immediately. A quintessential cottage frontage, complete with a charming, easy maintenance, gravelled front garden, iron gate and solid wooden front door, sets a welcoming tone and hints at the warmth within.

Step inside and the living room does not disappoint. A striking exposed stone feature wall and impressive fireplace forms a captivating focal point, perfectly complemented by the wood-burning stove and crisp pale grey walls that enhance both the character and the sense of light. It is a room that feels cosy yet refined — ideal for relaxed evenings or entertaining guests.

Beyond lies the beautifully designed kitchen diner. Hand-fitted to maximise the space, the contemporary cabinetry integrates appliances seamlessly while still allowing ample room for a dining table and chairs. This is more than a kitchen — it is a space to gather, cook and unwind. A practical rear utility room keeps laundry discreetly tucked away and adds further convenience, both spaces finished in the same thoughtful and light-filled style.

A part-glazed door leads out to the courtyard garden, positioned alongside the house — perfect for summer pots, morning coffee or drying laundry. A traditional stone out store provides excellent storage for tools and garden equipment. Across the residents’ private rear access lane sits a separate lawned garden area, offering additional outdoor space to enjoy. This is fully enclosed so perfect for children or pets.

Upstairs, the attention to detail continues. The first floor hosts two inviting double bedrooms. The principal bedroom at the front features fitted blinds, built-in storage cupboard and high ceilings that enhance the sense of space and period elegance. The second double bedroom at the rear feels light, calm and cosy. Completing the accommodation is a beautifully finished family bathroom, styled in contemporary tones and presented to a high standard.

On-street parking is available directly outside the property, and while not formally allocated, residents of the terrace also make use of the car park opposite.

With Lancaster on the doorstep and excellent access to both the nearby canal for walks and the motorway network, the location is ideal — whether for commuting, exploring the surrounding countryside or enjoying nearby leisure facilities.

Combining character, location and impeccable style, this truly is a gorgeous home in every sense.
