Set in the peaceful hamlet of Bay Horse, Oak Cottage is a characterful three-bedroom semi with generous living space and wide countryside views. High ceilings, original stone walls and period details such as a stained-glass window and ornate fireplace give the home authentic Victorian charm while double glazing (installed post-2002) helps retain heat.
The house sits on a large plot with a multi-level rear garden that backs onto open fields, plus a detached garage and driveway for parking. The main living space is an open-plan reception and dining room ideal for family life, and the kitchen provides practical workspace and room for informal dining. The property is connected to oil-fired central heating via boiler and radiators.
Important considerations: the property uses a private septic tank that is non-compliant, so sale is being marketed to cash buyers only. The original granite or whinstone walls are assumed to lack insulation, and broadband speeds are slow — factors to weigh if planning major refurbishment or home-working. There is a single wet-room bathroom for three bedrooms. For buyers seeking rural character, scope for updating, and strong transport links to Lancaster and Preston, this offers a rare, substantial home.
