Set within Scorton Conservation Area, The Lodge is a handsome mid‑19th century detached cottage offering generous rooms, private gardens and versatile outbuildings. Two double bedrooms and two substantial dual‑aspect reception rooms retain period features — a turret staircase, stone and timber details, feature fireplaces and flagged floors — giving the house strong character and immediate kerb appeal. The bespoke kitchen and four‑piece bathroom blend traditional styling with modern fittings.
The plot is a key asset: a large, enclosed lawned garden with mature trees, established beds, a pond and paved sitting areas creates a very private setting. A detached garden room (wood burner, full‑length windows) provides a year‑round studio or home gym. A separate stone outbuilding currently housing workshop, laundry and WC offers clear potential for conversion to annexe or rental accommodation subject to planning consent (STPP).
Practical points are straightforward and should be noted. The property’s original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated, and some updating or insulation works may be required to improve thermal performance. There is a single main bathroom and the council tax band is above average, reflecting the size and location. Any conversion of outbuildings will need planning approval and building works.
This home will suit buyers seeking a character country home close to village amenities — a family wanting space and flexibility, or buyers seeking a holiday let or bolt‑hole with rental potential. Excellent road links, fast broadband and strong mobile signal make remote working realistic, while Garstang and Lancaster are within easy reach for broader services.
