South Wing, The Residence Kershaw Drive | A peaceful and private position.

Location
The Residence enjoys a sought-after position close to Williamson Park, one of Lancaster’s best-loved green spaces, known for its open grounds, weekend park runs and year-round events. A local Co-op is within easy walking distance for everyday essentials, while Lancaster’s historic city centre is around 1.5 miles away, offering a wide mix of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions.

Regular bus services and good road links make it easy to get into the city, reach the university or travel further afield. This part of south Lancaster continues to appeal to professionals, downsizers and buyers looking for low-maintenance living with both green space and city convenience close by.

Property Details
Positioned within the desirable South Wing, this second-floor apartment immediately stands out for its quieter setting at the end of a corridor shared with only two neighbouring homes. The elevated position gives it a bright outlook, with leafy views across Kershaw Drive towards Williamson Park adding to the sense of privacy. Residents benefit from both lift and stair access, including a lift close to the apartment itself, along with additional exits throughout the building for practicality.

Inside, the apartment is well planned and filled with natural light. The dual-aspect lounge has high ceilings, large windows and French doors opening onto a west-facing balcony, creating a bright main living space with room to sit out and enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. The kitchen is arranged in a modern U-shape with light grey gloss units, granite-effect worktops and a range of integrated appliances, giving it a smart and practical finish.

There are two double bedrooms, including a main bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room. The second bedroom also works well for guests or as a study and includes a useful built-in cupboard set into the wall. The main bathroom is fitted with modern grey tiling and a white three-piece suite, while a large hallway cupboard provides further storage. Outside, the apartment benefits from two allocated parking spaces at the front of the building.
