Bowerham Road, Lancaster | Stone-built Victorian terrace with forecourt garden!

Location

Bowerham is one of Lancaster’s most popular residential areas thanks to its excellent mix of local amenities and strong transport links. Situated just south of the city centre, it is well served by regular bus routes to Lancaster University, the University of Cumbria and the Royal Lancaster Infirmary. Everyday needs are catered for with nearby shops, including a Spar convenience store, takeaways, a post office and several well-regarded pubs. Families will also find schools within walking distance, ranging from nursery to secondary level. For leisure, Williamson Park is only a short stroll away, offering 54 acres of parkland, a café and the iconic Ashton Memorial. The city centre itself, with its wide choice of shops, restaurants, cultural attractions and two train stations, is also within easy reach.

Property Details

This traditional terrace is set across two floors and offers well-proportioned living accommodation. The ground floor begins with a welcoming hallway leading into two reception rooms. The front reception features a bay window, enhancing natural light and creating a spacious feel. This room is currently arranged as a bedroom for student let purposes but could easily be reinstated as a sitting room. The second reception sits centrally, providing further flexible space as a lounge, dining room, or additional study area and also gives access to the cellar. To the rear lies a fitted galley-style kitchen with a range of beech-effect cabinetry, granite-style worktops and space for appliances.

On the first floor, the property has two generous double bedrooms, both with high ceilings. The master bedroom runs across the full width of the home and benefits from views to the front elevation, making it a bright and airy space. The second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and is another well-proportioned double. Completing the accommodation is a spacious four-piece bathroom, fitted with bath, WC, wash basin and a separate shower cubicle.

Externally, the property has a forecourt garden to the front, adding a traditional feel and a degree of privacy from the pavement. To the rear, an enclosed garden features a lawn with planting borders, together with double gates that open to a hardstanding area. This area could be used for off-street parking for a small car or motorcycle and is accessed from a cobbled service road.
