This former showhome, built by Fellside Homes in 2021, sits on one of the development’s largest corner plots and offers roomy family living with an upgraded, contemporary finish. High ceilings, grey Karndean flooring to the ground floor and Bosch kitchen appliances give the house a polished, move-in-ready feel; bi-folding doors connect the open-plan kitchen diner to a generous wrap-around garden and patio for easy indoor-outdoor family life.
The ground floor is practical as well as stylish: a lounge with wood-burning stove provides a cosy front-facing retreat, while a separate utility room and downstairs WC add everyday convenience. Upstairs there are four bedrooms (three doubles) with a principal en-suite and a four-piece family bathroom, so the layout easily accommodates children, guests or a home-office layout.
Outside, the long driveway fits at least three vehicles and the lawned, planted gardens include raised beds and fruit trees — a rare, family-friendly plot size in this area. The location on Scotforth Road gives straightforward access to good local schools, Lancaster University and day-to-day amenities, with regular buses into Lancaster city centre and nearby green space for walks.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold with an EPC rating of B and has low local crime, fast broadband and mains gas central heating. There is a service charge figure listed (480) and a separate monthly residents’ maintenance fee (£40) for communal upkeep; council tax is above average. Mobile signal is only average and the area is characterised as an ageing suburb, which may matter to buyers seeking a very young, nightlife-focused neighbourhood.
