Here's our TOP TEN reasons to love Undercroft:

1. Grade II Listed double fronted detached property offering character accommodation with period features such as original six panel and boarded doors, sash windows, ceiling beams and hooks, picture rail, a period alcove cupboard and stone fireplace.

2. Picturesque Conservation Area village - Undercroft is situated on Main Street, described as 'a very pretty street' in Nikolaus Pevsner's Buildings of England, North Lancashire.

3. Well-proportioned accommodation set over two floors with a gross internal area of 1642 sq ft (152.6 sq m).

4. Two reception rooms - a spacious, dual aspect sitting room has a sandstone fireplace with open fire, oak floor, recessed shelving, and built-in bookshelves and cupboards. The dining room, which is also dual aspect, is currently used as a playroom/snug.

5. Modern dining kitchen - fitted with a range of units, granite worktops, double electric oven, induction hob, integral dishwasher and pot sink. There is bench seating to one end with built-in storage. A stable door leads to a rear porch.

6. Practical laundry/cloakroom - with access to the rear terrace and garage, a useful space with tiled floor, a two piece suite and space for a washing machine and tumble drier.

7. And when the day is done... off the enclosed staircase, there is a good-sized landing with space for a desk/work station and a loft hatch with pull down ladder providing access to the boarded loft space. There are three double bedrooms; bedroom 1 has wardrobes to one wall (they are not fitted but could be included in the sale) and bedroom 3 has oak floor boards. To complete the picture, there is a three piece bathroom.

8. Cottage gardens - there is a lawned foregarden with planted borders and a central path. To the rear, is a flagged seating terrace with a stone wall boundary and to the side, a delightful, south east facing, walled garden with a level lawn, mature planting and a small stone and slate outbuilding, ideal for log storage. There is gated access from the front around to the rear.

9. Garaging and parking with an attached single garage having an electric up and over door, power, light and a cold water tap.

10. If it's access to open countryside you're seeking then the the Lune Valley, Yorkshire Dales and Lake District National Parks and the Forest of Bowland National Landscape are all within reach.
