Fair Elms, Westbourne Road, Lancaster
The Location

Fair Elms sits proudly on Westbourne Road, one of Lancaster’s established residential addresses, close to the city centre yet set within a quieter, greener pocket of the city. The development has an attractive stone-built appearance and a well-kept setting, with parking, communal areas and mature planting creating a calm first impression. From here, Lancaster’s shops, cafés, medical services, bus routes and railway station are within easy reach, while Williamson Park, Greaves Park and the canal offer pleasant places to walk and enjoy the outdoors. This is a location that works particularly well for buyers wanting independence, convenience and a sense of community, without giving up space, outlook or easy access to everyday amenities.

Property Information

Positioned on the first floor of Fair Elms, is a spacious two-bedroom apartment with a wonderful sense of light, proportion and outlook. The apartment enjoys views to the front across Lancaster, with glimpses towards the Castle and surrounding greenery, while the rear outlook feels peaceful and leafy, looking across mature trees and neighbouring period homes.

The accommodation begins with a central hallway, giving the apartment a practical and easy-to-follow layout. The living room is the real heart of the home, measuring almost 19ft in length and offering plenty of space for both comfortable seating and a dining table. Large front-facing windows fill the room with natural light and frame the elevated view, creating a lovely setting for quiet mornings, relaxed afternoons or welcoming family and friends. It is a room that feels generous without being difficult to manage, with enough space to live comfortably and still feel connected to the outside.

The kitchen sits separately and is fitted with a range of wooden-style cabinetry, integrated cooking appliances and useful storage. Its window gives another pleasant outlook across Lancaster, making day-to-day tasks feel brighter and more enjoyable.

There are two bedrooms, both with their own appeal. The main bedroom is especially impressive, measuring over 17ft in length and offering excellent space for a double bed, wardrobes, drawers and even a reading chair by the window. The soft neutral décor and leafy view give it a calm, restful feel. The second bedroom is also a good size and would work well as a guest room, hobby space or study, depending on the buyer’s needs.

The bathroom has been adapted into a modern shower room, fitted with a large walk-in shower, WC and wash basin. A useful utility room/cupboard off the hallway adds further practicality, ideal for keeping laundry and household items neatly tucked away.

Fair Elms itself is an attractive later living development, with lift access, communal facilities, resident parking and well-maintained shared spaces. For those looking to downsize without feeling boxed in, this apartment offers an excellent balance of space, comfort, views and convenience.
