This stone-built Victorian terrace on Westham Street offers an accessible entry into Lancaster’s popular LA1 area. The house is well maintained with recent roof repairs, uPVC double glazing, and a gas combi boiler serviced annually — so it’s liveable from day one while still offering scope to personalise.
Inside are two well-proportioned double bedrooms upstairs and a roomy ground-floor kitchen and bathroom. Original internal doors add period character, and the layout suits a first-time buyer seeking a practical home or an investor aiming for straightforward rental appeal near the university and hospital.
Notable positives include low council tax, good broadband and mobile signal, and very low local crime. The property is freehold and carries an EPC rating of D. A private rear yard provides outdoor space despite the very small plot.
Buyers should be aware of a few material issues: the living room description notes past damp and mould concerns and some unventilated alcoves; the stone external walls are likely uninsulated (as-built). The overall internal area is small (approx. 495 sqft), so expect compact rooms and limited outdoor space. For buyers wanting to upgrade, there’s potential to improve insulation, ventilation, and interior finishes to increase comfort and value.
