Gubberford Lane, Scorton, PR3

Tucked away behind electric gates and approached via a private sweeping driveway, Broadacre is far more than a home, it’s a lifestyle. Set within approximately 1 acre of secluded grounds, this beautifully renovated three-bedroom bungalow offers a rare sense of space, privacy, and freedom, all in one of the area’s most desirable village settings.

Inside, the property has been thoughtfully transformed by the current owners to create a warm yet contemporary living environment, perfectly suited to modern life while retaining a welcoming, homely feel. The well-balanced single-storey layout lends itself effortlessly to both relaxed day-to-day living and entertaining, while a substantial standing attic space presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to grow into the home over time, subject to the necessary consents.

Broadacre is a home with a future as well as a present. Previous planning permission was granted to almost double the size of the property, although this has now lapsed. Nevertheless, it highlights the clear potential the plot offers for those with a vision to create a larger, long-term family residence (subject to obtaining the relevant permissions). The inclusion of a Vortex 8 sewage treatment plant, compliant with current regulations and capable of serving a six-bedroom home, further reinforces this opportunity.

Step outside and the lifestyle truly comes into its own. The generous grounds provide endless possibilities, from family life and outdoor entertaining to more practical uses. Two detached outbuildings add further flexibility, currently serving as storage and a home gym, but equally suited to a home office, studio, or hobby space.

For those with vehicles, hobbies, or a need for substantial storage, the detached garage is a standout feature. With two electric roller doors, a car port, and a bay capable of housing a motor home, it caters effortlessly to modern demands.

Living in Scorton means embracing the best of both worlds. Surrounded by beautiful countryside and on the doorstep of the Forest of Bowland an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it’s a location that invites you outdoors, whether that’s morning walks, cycling, or simply enjoying the scenery.

At the same time, the village itself offers a vibrant and welcoming community, with a selection of popular cafés, restaurants, a well-regarded school, a village shop, post office, and even garden centres, all contributing to a relaxed yet well-connected way of life.

Despite its peaceful setting, Scorton remains highly accessible, with the A6 and M6 close by, making travel to Lancaster, Preston, and beyond straightforward.

Broadacre is not just a property you buy, it’s a place you settle into, grow with, and truly enjoy.
