Pickthorn Close, Lancaster, LA1

Location

Tucked just off Barley Cop Lane, Pickthorn Close is a quiet, horseshoe-shaped setting that feels settled and easy to live in. This part of north Lancaster is popular with families and first-time buyers, thanks to its close proximity to local schools, supermarkets and everyday amenities. The area offers straightforward access out of the city via the Bay Gateway, making connections to the M6 simple and convenient. Barley Cop Woods is close by, providing a natural green space for walking and fresh air, while the city centre remains within easy reach. It’s a location that balances convenience with a calm residential feel.

The Property

Step inside and the home opens with a welcoming hallway, where recently updated tiled flooring leads you through into the kitchen. To the right, the living room runs the full depth of the property, with windows at both ends bringing in natural light throughout the day. It’s a versatile space, easily set up for both relaxing evenings and family time, with a natural flow through to a dining area.

The kitchen has been recently renovated in 2025, finished with sleek grey gloss units and white worktops that give a clean, modern feel. A breakfast bar provides a sociable spot for everyday use, whether that’s a quick breakfast or catching up at the end of the day. Integrated appliances keep the space streamlined, and the layout makes the most of both storage and workspace, including a useful pantry tucked under the stairs.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, including two comfortable doubles and a well-proportioned single room that could suit a child’s bedroom, guest room or home office. The bathroom is finished with a modern white suite, fully tiled for a fresh look, with a shower over the bath.

Outside, the space has been designed for low maintenance. A driveway runs alongside the property providing off-road parking, while the rear garden is fully enclosed and laid for ease of upkeep. With a south-west facing aspect, it enjoys plenty of afternoon and evening sun, and there is a large shed offering valuable storage.
