Two double bedrooms with countryside views
Two reception rooms and a modern fitted kitchen
Large rear garden with paved patio and lawn

EPC D (current) with clear scope to improve to B

This two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage sits in the peaceful hamlet of Bay Horse, about six miles south of Lancaster. The house offers two reception rooms, a modern fitted kitchen and a contemporary bathroom, plus pleasing countryside views from the front rooms. A paved patio and large lawned rear garden give good outdoor space for a rural setting.
Practical features include driveway/off-street parking for two cars, double glazing installed after 2002, and freehold tenure. The property is heated by electric storage heaters and currently shows an EPC Band D with scope to improve; the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, which is a likely area for energy upgrades.
The cottage will suit first-time buyers or investors looking for a compact, characterful home in a very affluent rural location with easy access to Lancaster and the M6. It is presented in generally serviceable condition but would benefit from cosmetic updating (carpets, decoration) and possible energy-efficiency improvements to reduce running costs and increase value.
Notable practical considerations: broadband speeds are slow in the area, heating is electric storage so running costs may be higher than gas alternatives, and the solid-wall construction limits immediate insulation performance. These factors are balanced by low council tax (Band B), excellent mobile signal, and proximity to well-ranked schools and village amenities.
