The Location

The Residence is one of Lancaster's most recognisable residential developments, occupying the beautifully converted Grade II listed former Moor Hospital. Set on elevated grounds above the city, it combines striking historic architecture with modern apartment living and enjoys a strong reputation amongst professionals, downsizers and buyers seeking something a little different from a conventional apartment block.

Residents benefit from easy access to Lancaster city centre, the Royal Lancaster Infirmary, Lancaster University and excellent road links towards the M6. Williamson Park is within walking distance and offers woodland walks, the Ashton Memorial, café facilities and open green space. A nearby Co-op provides day-to-day convenience, whilst the development's pet-friendly policy makes it particularly appealing for dog owners and those wanting outdoor access close to home.

Property Information

Positioned on the ground floor within North Wing, is a spacious two-bedroom apartment. The apartment was specifically chosen by the current owner for its enviable south-facing garden, excellent position within the development and the convenience of having two allocated parking spaces located close to the garden entrance.

The accommodation is accessed via an L-shaped entrance hallway with useful built-in storage and housing for the gas combination boiler. The layout immediately feels practical and welcoming, providing separation between the living and sleeping accommodation.

The main living space is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Measuring over 21ft in length, the impressive open-plan living, dining and kitchen area benefits from high ceilings and large windows that flood the room with natural light. French doors open directly onto the private garden, creating a seamless connection between inside and outside living. The generous proportions comfortably accommodate lounge and dining furniture, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with contemporary white gloss units complemented by grey stone-effect work surfaces and dark tiled flooring. Integrated appliances include a Neff oven and gas hob, creating a practical and stylish cooking space that remains connected to the main living area.

Both bedrooms are genuine doubles. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-through dressing area and a modern en-suite shower room finished with contemporary tiling. The second double bedroom offers flexibility as a guest room, home office or additional reception space if desired.

A separate bathroom serves the remainder of the apartment and features a three-piece white suite with complementary tiling.

Outside, the private south-facing garden is a particularly rare feature for an apartment. The extended Indian stone patio provides an excellent space for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the sun throughout the day. The proximity of the garden gate to the allocated parking spaces further enhances the convenience of daily living.

Garden

The enclosed garden offers a pleasant and private outdoor space, bordered by a mature hedge that creates a good degree of screening.
