3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Solid starter with loft potential near Lancaster amenities and good transport links.
- Three bedrooms plus large boarded loft, ripe for conversion
- Roof and tilt-and-turn windows replaced in 2018
- Boiler replaced in 2020; shower room new in 2021
- System-built walls assumed without insulation — upgrade likely needed
- Small, low-maintenance rear garden; modest front lawn
- Single shower room for three bedrooms
- Area: very deprived with above-average crime statistics
- Freehold, 904 sq ft, Council Tax Band A (very cheap)
A well-located three-bedroom mid-terrace offering 904 sq ft of flexible family space within walking distance of Lancaster city amenities, university and hospital. The property has had important recent updates — new roof and tilt-and-turn windows (2018), boiler (2020) and shower room (2021) — which reduce immediate major maintenance needs.
Accommodation is arranged over two main floors with a large boarded loft room that already benefits from insulation and Velux windows; it offers clear potential for conversion (subject to consent) to add living space or a home office with views toward Morecambe Bay and Lancaster Castle. Ground floor layout includes lounge, dining room, fitted kitchen and a practical utility/storage area that improves everyday usability.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing and freehold tenure with low Band A council tax. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, helping remote working or streaming needs.
Buyers should note material negatives: the area records above-average crime and high deprivation indicators, and the property was built using system-built walls that are assumed to have no cavity insulation. The rear garden is low-maintenance and small, and there is a single shower room serving three bedrooms. These factors may affect energy costs and resale expectations without further investment.
