A spacious two-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace offered freehold, set within easy reach of Lancaster city centre and local schools. The house keeps period character—bay window, varnished floorboards and good ceiling heights—while delivering bright contemporary living across two reception rooms, a large galley kitchen and a generous cellar. The south-facing paved garden is low-maintenance and private, ideal for outdoor entertaining.
Practical strengths include a large cellar for storage or a workshop, a useful utility room with boiler, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for home-working. The current layout is flexible and could be reverted to three bedrooms if required, which increases both family utility and rental/investment appeal.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property sits in a generally deprived area with above-average local crime statistics, and the stone walls are likely uninsulated. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and may not meet modern thermal standards. The plot is small and parking is limited to a narrow adjacent driveway or on-street options.
Overall this freehold Victorian home will suit first-time buyers or young professionals who want a characterful, move-in-ready house with scope to improve energy performance and potentially reconfigure the layout to add value.
