A bright three-bedroom Victorian terrace offering straightforward living in south Lancaster. The bay-fronted living room and original period details — cornicing, picture rails and a cast-iron fireplace — give the house character while the south-facing rear yard brings usable outdoor space without high maintenance.
At about 947 sq ft, the layout is traditionally arranged with a vestibule, separate lounge and dining room, fitted kitchen and a contemporary first-floor bathroom. The property sits in a well-served area close to good primary and secondary schools, local shops on Greaves and Scotforth Road, and strong transport links to Lancaster city centre and the M6.
Practical points are clear: the home is freehold, on cheap council tax (Band B), with mains gas central heating and fast broadband. The cottage-sized plot and mid-terrace position suit buyers wanting manageable upkeep or a first home with room to personalise.
Energy-efficiency improvements would add value: the double glazing is older (pre-2002) and external cavity walls are assumed uninsulated. There is one bathroom and a small rear yard, so growing families should consider space needs. Overall, this is a well-positioned, characterful terrace offering straightforward purchase and scope to update selectively.
