Description

Location

Makinsons Row sits quietly within the heart of Galgate, a village that continues to appeal to buyers looking for a strong sense of community alongside everyday convenience. Tucked away from passing traffic, this peaceful terrace enjoys a more settled feel while still being moments from village shops, cafés and local services. Galgate’s excellent transport links make life easy, with quick access to Lancaster city centre, the university and the M6 for wider commuting. It’s an area that suits a range of buyers, from first-time purchasers taking their first step onto the ladder, to downsizers wanting something manageable, as well as investors drawn to the consistent demand for well-kept character homes in established settings.

The Property

From the moment you arrive, this two-bedroom mid-terrace makes a positive first impression. A neat foregarden with raised stone beds, gravel detailing and a soft green gate frames the entrance and creates a welcoming approach, with space to add planting or personalise further.

Step inside and the lounge feels instantly comfortable and easy to settle into. Recently redecorated in fresh white tones with new carpets underfoot, the room centres around a restored inglenook fireplace fitted with a log-burning or multi-fuel stove — a real focal point that adds warmth and character through the cooler months. There’s also a deep under-stairs cupboard, offering practical storage or space for a freestanding fridge freezer if needed.

To the rear, the kitchen was fitted in 2013 and remains a bright, functional space. Wood-effect units sit alongside quartz-style work surfaces, white metro tile splashbacks and white gloss wall cupboards, all finished with stainless steel handles. White tiled flooring helps keep the room light and practical, while a door leads directly outside, making it easy to step out into the garden.

Upstairs, the layout is straightforward and well balanced. The landing leads to two genuine double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The front bedroom looks out over the foregarden and features laminate-effect flooring, while the rear bedroom enjoys garden views, a deep windowsill and a calm, private feel. The bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite, including a bath with electric shower over, with tiled walls and clean white fittings.

Outside, the rear yard is a real bonus. With a useful shed, insulated screening and mature planting to the borders, it feels pleasantly private and is a space that comes into its own during spring and summer — ideal for sitting out, pottering or entertaining on a smaller scale. The property is warmed by gas central heating, with a new combination boiler installed in 2025, adding peace of mind for the next owner.
