A rare 1672 stone cottage in the heart of Bolton Le Sands, sympathetically updated while keeping strong period character. The principal living room showcases exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace with a log-burning stove, creating a warm, characterful focal point for family life and entertaining. The kitchen-diner has cream shaker units and a vaulted skylit dining area that opens onto a private front patio — a bright, sociable space for everyday living.
Upstairs offers two generous double bedrooms, both retaining original beams; the principal benefits from a full wall of fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is roomy and fitted with both a bath and a separate walk-in rainfall shower. A key asset is the professionally converted garage, now a self-contained annex with its own kitchenette and shower room — ideal for guests, extended family, or rental income, but note this conversion removes the original internal garage parking.
Outside spaces are low-maintenance: a private front patio and a well-established garden alongside the annex create pleasant outdoor rooms without onerous upkeep. The cottage is chain-free, freehold and in a village location close to shops, primary school, canal and coastal walks, with good road and bus links to Lancaster and Carnforth.
Material considerations: the property has an EPC rating of E and stone walls that are assumed to have no cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for potential improvement works to heating efficiency. The property uses a septic tank and the annex runs on LPG, which are important running-cost and maintenance points to note. Overall this is a character-rich, newly renovated period cottage suited to buyers seeking village life with flexible accommodation.
