The Accommodation - This extensively refurbished cottage really does offer the perfectly balance between new and old and between style and substance. Sitting on an established terrace and with outstanding period features such as the stone internal walls, the modern twist provides the perfect complementary balance. You enter the relatively spacious lounge which leads into a brand new contemporary kitchen with wall and base units with laminate work top surfaces, a single stainless steel sink and drainer and an electric oven and hob with overhead extractor. Upstairs is a lovely master bedroom, a sleek and stylish three piece brand new bathroom suite and a smaller second bedroom / office. Additional improvements include new double glazed windows at the rear and new internal doors.

Lets Look Outside.. - The property boasts an external storage outhouse directly off the back of the house which can provide reasonable storage or indeed space to host a washing machine / tumble dryer. An additional, stone storage outhouse is visible across the lawn, yours being the one on the right with the new roof. Your property has the small courtyard area and flower bed from the back door and the lawned area is communal between those in the terrace. A great space to enjoy on a sunny summers day.

The Location - Galgate is a thriving village just a few miles south of Lancaster, known for its community atmosphere, access to countryside, and strong transport links.
