Greenways, Whams Lane, Bay Horse, Lancaster, LA2 9BY

Nestled in the attractive rural setting of Bay Horse, this extended and updated traditional semi detached property offers the perfect blend of period charm and modern comfort. The large front porch is a characterful feature and makes an impressive first impression being substantially built with a slated roof and having oak supports on stone plinths. The fitted storage bench with hangers and drawers in the entrance hallway is a stylish and functional piece of furniture designed to maximise space and provide convenience as soon as you step through the door. The focal points of the sitting room are the attractive bay window and the substantial stone fireplace housing a wood-burning stove, ideal for colder evenings. The walls are finished with elegant wood panelling and painted in a tasteful green that complements the natural tones of the stone and wood, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The beautifully designed open plan living kitchen seamlessly blends style and functionality. The kitchen has integrated appliances, ample storage and generous worktop space, natural light floods the space through two Velux skylights, large windows and the French doors at the far end leading to the outside paved seating area. The living area has plenty of room for a large dining table and charming snug area, with the large stone fireplace and wood burner creating a cosy retreat. With its soft lighting and inviting layout, the snug adds character and warmth to the open plan design, making it feel both sociable and homely. Downstairs also benefits from a separate utility area and good size understairs storage cupboard.
