Lawnswood Avenue | A spacious true bungalow with mature gardens tucked away in a quiet Scotforth cul-de-sac

Lawnswood Avenue, Scotforth, Lancaster
Location

Set towards the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the ever-popular Scotforth area of Lancaster, Lawnswood Avenue is a well-regarded residential address known for its substantial bungalows, generous plots and peaceful setting. It is the kind of location that appeals strongly to downsizers, families looking for single-level living and buyers who want space without feeling isolated. Everyday life is made easy here, with local shops, bus routes and Booths all within reach, while Lancaster University, the Royal Lancaster Infirmary and Lancaster city centre are all easily accessible. The A6 also provides a straightforward route south towards Galgate and the M6, making this a practical and settled place to call home.

The Property

This substantial double-fronted true bungalow offers the space, privacy and setting that buyers hope to find in Scotforth, yet so rarely see come to the market. Offered with no onward chain and measuring approximately 1,053 sq. ft., it has clearly been cared for over the years and now offers a wonderful opportunity for a buyer to update the home to their own taste while enjoying an excellent layout, mature gardens and a highly sought-after address.

The approach creates a strong first impression, with a neat front garden, mature planting and a generous block-paved driveway providing excellent off-road parking. The detached garage sits to the side, accessed from the driveway, and gives useful secure parking, storage or workshop potential.

Once inside, the wide central hallway gives the bungalow a practical and easy flow. It is larger than you might expect, helping the home feel open and well connected, with the main rooms arranged around it in a way that works well for day-to-day living.

The lounge sits to the front and is a particularly generous room, with a wide window drawing in plenty of natural light and giving views across the front garden. It has the space for larger furniture without feeling crowded, making it a comfortable room for quiet evenings, family visits or simply enjoying the sense of space around you.

There is also a separate dining room, which adds real flexibility to the layout. It could continue as a formal dining space, work well as a third bedroom, or become a home office, snug or hobby room, depending on the buyer’s needs.

To the rear, the kitchen is traditional in style, with a good range of storage and space for a small breakfast table. It connects directly into the sunroom, which is a lovely addition to the home. Overlooking the rear garden, this is a light and pleasant spot for morning coffee, reading or sitting out of the weather while still feeling close to the garden.

There are two further bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and dressing table storage. The second bedroom is ideal as a guest room, smaller double or single bedroom. The wet-room style bathroom has been designed with accessibility in mind and includes a shower area, WC and wash basin.

Outside, the gardens are a real strength. The front garden gives the home an attractive sense of arrival, while the rear garden feels private and established, with lawn, patio seating, mature shrubs and planted borders bringing colour and interest. It is a space that could be enjoyed as it is, or gradually adapted by a new owner.

The detached garage measures around 17'6" in length and benefits from an electric up-and-over door. With the driveway, gardens, sunroom, generous lounge and flexible room arrangement, this is a rare chance to buy a well-maintained semi-detached bungalow in one of Scotforth’s most settled cul-de-sac locations.
